    Happy birthday and may God bless you today!

    Just wanted to share this letter I got from Dannon. I originally asked about their yogurts because the ingredients listed both "modified food starch" and "modified corn starch". "Thank you for contacting The Dannon Company, Inc. We sincerely appreciate your interest in Dannon yogurt products and gluten. Dannon yogurt products are characterized as either...

    I never thought about the travel sized mouth washes. Now that's good advice ! I'm sure he'd be up for it since he likes using mouth wash at home. We haven't been eating out as much because I don't think most of the restaurants around here pay enough attention to special requests (except for Spiral Diner, my favorite). I can't remember how many times...

    My blood tests also came back negative but I reacted positively to a gluten free diet. It took only a few days for some of my symptoms to diminish. My gastroenterologist said that it was probably an intolerance and to continue the diet. My GI problems keep improving every week.

    bluejeangirl, It's great that you feel better eating the way you do. Do you not eat any soy products at all? Just curious. I never cook it myself but I'll eat it if served to me. I also drink soy milk. I've finally begun to get a little more versatility in my diet. I didn't realize how big wheat products were in my diet but now I'm not sure why I was...

    ARCHIVED Chili's

    cookiequeen posted a topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants

    I ran into someone who said that they went to Chili's with a friend with celiac. She said her friend asked for a gluten free menu and there was one available. I went to the website and there are allergen menus that can be downloaded, including wheat/gluten free.

    abuse? Seriously?! Maybe if I've been gluten free for years or even more than 3 freaking weeks. He's been really supportive when we go grocery shopping or out to eat. He was even cool with me giving away foods that I couldn't eat anymore. He's been doing a good job at kissing my cheek after meals, with little reminders here and there. Like I said before,...

    "Abusive jerk" is pushing the line! He may not understand the diet, as this is my 3rd week of being gluten free, and it is a learning experience for the both of us. I did speak with him about what happened and how I felt. I told him the same rule applied as if he had just ate meat (I'm vegetarian). I think we have a better understanding now. It's hard for...

    Yeah most people freak out a little when they hear about my diet. My selections have gotten better, especially now that I'm trying to cook a little more. I'd say my meals have actually become healthier now that I've cut out a lot of the processed stuff. I will miss my morning star "chicken" burgers though...

    I don't live in NY but I am a registered dietitian (RD). One of the best ways to find one is through the American Dietetic Association's website, eatright.org. You can search for one by location. Make sure you see a RD vs a nutritionist. RDs have certain educational requirements, many hours of internships, use peer reviewed & evidenced based nutritional...

    My husband just finished a bowl of honey nut cheerios and insisted that he give me a kiss. I've been gluten free for almost 2 weeks and the smell of cereal was very tempting so I asked him to wait a while. His playful response was "What? No gluten kisses" then he laid one on me! Earlier today I was having lunch at Starbucks (I brought my own meal) and...

    I went back to Borders to see if they could order the book I want. I'm a registered dietitian and I like to keep reference book and other things that may be helpful so I figured I'd just purchase something. Turns out that they had more books this time on the subject and they even had both of the books I was looking for.

    I went to Jason's Deli today and asked if the soft serve had gluten. It does . No wonder it got sick the last time I ate there.

    What type of supplements do you take? I usually take protein powder because I tend not to consume enough for my activity level (exercise 5-6 days a week, sometime with two-a-days). But to be honest, this last binge was mostly emotional. I wasn't looking forward to going back to work after a 3 day weekend. I've grown to dislike my job and I've been looking...
