    I know there are a couple of types of Gluten Free Beer. I am usually not a beer drinker (I am a wine drinker) but ... occasionally I prefer beer. I haven't been able to find it anywhere though, I may not be looking in the right places. Can I buy it in a grocery store, or do I have to order it online?

    I am feeling frustrated and frazzled, and dumbfounded that Houston - which is a very large city, one of the largest in the US, seems to have very little in the way of gluten free dining (especially at an affordable price.) Surely, there has got to be more than what I've come across. I've gone to the gluten free directory lists, and see that they are 3,...

    I'm new to being Gluten Free - so my experience is limited, but .... so far, my list consists of Enjoy Life "Not Nuts Mountain Mambo" trailmix Dried Fruit Crisps Dried Veggie Crisps Dried Apples (not crispy) Envirokidz Peanut Butter Flavored Crispy Rice Bar Kinnikinick White Tapioca Rice Bread Toasted with Margarine (gluten-free, ofcourse...

    Today is 9 days Gluten Free, and I have been feeling better - for the most part. BUT, I think I am lacking in nutrients, despite trying to suppliment them. My tummy is happier (which makes me happier) but ... I'm not getting enough fiber b/c my food's not, um... moving outward in a timely fashion My skin is also significantly drier...

    That's a great idea! Gluten Free S.O.S.

    LoL, I want to go too They sound like great topics! I think that a couple of other great topics could be: The Gluten Free Scholar: College and Gluten Intolerence I Love You, But Do I love Your Celiac?: Friends, Family, & Loved Ones of Celiacs and Gluten Intolerant/Gluten Sensitive People Making Peace With Your Body - inside...

    Wow, very cool, thanks for the info! Do you know if the article is available online? I'd be interested in reading it

    I like Kinnikinick (sp?) I got luky on the first shot, and came across a good flavor - it is the italian white tapioca rice bread. Here is their website Open Original Shared Link

    I went out to dinner. I had previously looked up the gluten free menu, and also called the restaurant. On my way out, I forgot the info at homeg (I wrote it down) and thought I'd surely be able to rely on my memory (I'd been over it several times.) I was getting the salmon, veggies, and mashed potatoes and it was confirmed to be free from gluten. ...

    I am experiencing and getting to understand just how delicate going Gluten Free is. It's a few steps back, a couple forward, a few more back, a couple more forward. I have only been Gluten Free for 8 days, and today isn't one of the better of those days, but ..... that's ok, it WILL get better and it WILL even out. I totally feel your frustration, I guess...

    I have been gluten free for a week. I was seriously torn with going gluten free, because I hadn't had a conclusive diagnosis that requires me to be off gluten. I was worried about feeling deprived, about feeling left out, about feeling.... uncomfortable with changing everything Yet, I am dumfounded, this is easier than I thought it would be. No, not...

    I have not been able to find Glutino prezels (or any Glutino products, acutally) do I have to order them?
  16. Live2BWell
    Hi There! I am very new to this also, so I completely relate! I actually posted a similar thread wanting to hear other's stories. As for me, and my story. My signature says a bunch - but, basically I have been sick with various problems for quite a while now. I was diagnosed with insulin resistance, and then autoimmune issues followed. Around this...

    I have not had turbinate surgery, but I have serious problems with my turbinates - they are very large and obstructive (as per my ENT.) I am on Vyramist nasal spray, but I tested negative for all allergies so my ENT thinks it's environmental. He also has me on regular saline spray - which helps, and at I have a personal steam inhaler (VICKS) that helps a...

    ARCHIVED Chili's

    Live2BWell posted a topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants

    I like it when restaurants have this - lol I am going out to Chili's tonight for dinner, and I went to their website and they have allergen info, including Gluten Free. Just thought I'd let you all know.

    I totally relate to where you are coming from, and I am only on DAY #3 Something that I have realized for me, is that pre-planning is essential, moreso than I even realized. I mean, living glutenated is easy, because everywhere you go you can find gluten filled foods. Living without gluten I am finding is much more tricky. Hang in there!

    So tomorrow will be my first Gluten-Free Shopping experience. I am going to be out and about on the side of town where whole foods is. On the side of town I live, there is no Whole Foods, but I can buy the naturally gluten-free stuff at the Kroger or HEB Any gluten-free must-haves I should know about for my shopping trip?
  21. Live2BWell
    Dinner went alright, actually. I stuck with the salad/veggies and used oil & vinegar as a dressing because I was not sure what else I could use, so I'll have to read up on that
  22. Live2BWell
    LoL, I have never heard of Carob, so is it safe to assume that it's a.o.k.?
  23. Live2BWell
    So, I am going out to dinner tonight. Here in about twenty-five minutes or so. I picked Souper! Salad because that was the first naturally gluten free (and easiest) place I could think of plus, I actually like it, so it's appropriate Only, I'm not sure what dressings are/are not Gluten free; and as for their soups?
  24. Live2BWell
    Thanks for the comment, and it sounded great - except.... I can't eat nuts (and I'm not supposed to eat chocolate either) ~ hmmmm Any other ideas?

    I had begun Weight Watchers last year, and had lost about 35 pounds. Unfortunately, being sick - mostly sedentary - and dealing with the Hashimotos Thyroid problems, I gained about 15 pounds of that weight back. I had been maintaining for a while, and a few weeks ago prior to my Colonoscopy my weight remained the same. Less than a week later, I had gained...
