  1. I love the two i have by Roben Ryberg. Gluten Free Kitchen and You Won't Believe It's Gluten Free each of these has its benefits. Gluten Free Kitchen has some of the basic recipes for transitioning like biscuits pancakes gravy meatloaf...etc. things that you've made for years that you suddenly have to relearn. and the newer one has a lot of recipes that...
  2. Hello, I have been there! i was diagnosed at 16. before that my life was exactly as you described. after eating i would feel bloated, nauseous, and i would almost always get D. I always had D and C issues. go three or four days wth nothing and then something would trigger D and i would be sick for days. and i began losing weight in high school. at the end...
  3. Oh im happy with those! It just seemed too good to be true haha thanks for sharing
  4. I'm voting. it ticks me off because if you read the INGREDIENT list you can tell whick is healthier. its made of oranges, baking powder and almonds. not much there. how is that unhealthy? makes no sense. i think they are full of it and i wanna know what the problem really is
  5. Could definitely be msg. it is often added to chicken. msg makes me sick. it gives me stomach cramps,indigestion, headache, fatigue and a fuzzy feeling. it usually only last a couple hours because i never ingest very much at a time
  6. yeah it just started a week or so ago. but i didnt know if it was just something that irritated my eyes. but it wouldnt go away so i called as soon as the clinic opened this morning. toda has been cloudy and no lights in the house have been turned on so i feel perfectly fine today. im not putting contacts in again until i know whats going on. thanks for all...
  7. Everyone has told me you're having a migraine but i didnt think it was possible to have a migraine and not have a headache. the only migraine i ever had before was 7 years ago and i was SICK for hours. this isnt anything like that. could it still be a migraine? I will look into a magnesium supplement asap because i need to get my eyes back! i hope yours stop...
  8. I have been having some odd symptoms with my eyes in the past week or so. I have an appointment for wednesday of this week with the base opthamologist. I guess I just hoped maybe i could hear from someone before then that may be able to tell me if this has happened to others... i got home from work on a monday night and had a pretty bad headache, i couldnt...
  9. you are NOT alone! Soo many people hear have a similar story.. I was recently glutened because of my own forgetfulness to label. my symptoms include all the yucky stomach ones which meant i had to rush myself home from eating dinner at hubby's fire station. i made it in time just barely and then was very sick. for me it also means extreme fatigue and slight...
  10. That looks amazing! are those really all the ingredients?? that doesnt seem possible. im trying them!!!
  11. I liked the Gluten Free Bible best. I read that one first so Gluten Free for Dummies seemed very redundant by the time I got to it... ive been waiting for a copy of this one at the library to compare
  12. I have considered this opic before.. i worried that whenever i was glutened, taking the pill may not be effective since gluten prevents your body from absorbing nutrients. however i have been glutened a couple tiimes and my bc still seems to be working so that theory doent seem to be true. maybe your body just doesnt absorb the pill as well or just being...
  13. I want them to at least replace it with something that can be called nutritious! Although anyone could point out that a gluten-free snack is much healthier for us celiacs than regular glutenful menu items. so they just arent looking at the health aspect from the right point of veiw as far as i'm concerned. but good luck to them i guess. if they can create...
  14. My first thought was red velvet too! i miss that stuff so much. i never even bothered with frosting on it because i just love it plain My second thought.... sara lee's frozen cakes. mmm if i could recreate that... or if someone else did... i'd be in heaven!
  15. i boght some and share your sentiments. i'm not sure what to do with them. they arent even dry enough to make a cookie crumb crust for cheesecake.. ...mmmm.... maybe a mix in at coldstone? but they arent sweet like a brownie. so far i have them on reserve for those times im oiut and about with NO gluten free options. after being hungry for a few hours cardboard...
  16. Congratulations to both of you!!! What a good role model for young celiacs to have. Do they have talent competitions and things like that? it would be really neat to see her bake gluten free goodies on there if that's her thing! keep us informed. especially if its televised on a news station.. i can always search youtube for it
  17. I would go both gluten and dairy free. Go back to a safe diet of whole inprocessed foods. rice, corn, veggies and fruits, meat (plain or with little seasonings like salt and pepper). Everyone will recommend this as a good idea. you can see how much better you feel and then after a few months (it will take time and patience) you may start adding things in...
  18. there is one i particularly like. its kinnikinnick quick bread mix. it is very easy! 3parts mix with 2 parts liquid. stir well and bake. and its probably the best i have tried. others i like are pamela's bread mix and gluten free pantry sandwich bread. both of those taste good and have a decent texture. i like these better than prepackaged breads there...
  19. I agree with Trillumhunter on this one. I eat rice chex with no problems but eating the chocolate and honey nut chex made me pretty sick. but my symptoms did not follow y normal gluten symptom timeline. honey nut gave me really bad headachs and stomach cramps and the chocolate just made me extremely nauseous. i do not blame gluten ot CC rather it may just...
  20. there are some gluten free brands of beef jerky out there... also dried fruits mixed with nuts and homemade granola would be good. enjo life and bakery on main both have gluten-free granola. bakery on main is AMAZING! i absolutely love that stuff..i would eat it before desert any day haha. also i believe nature valley makes granola bars that do not contain...
  21. for me that was normal...for the first few months. at about four months i started feeling notably better for longer periods of time and by six months i felt well enough to finish a gluten free sandwich, for me at that time, that was a huge feat. your intestines are healing right now and some things are easier to digest than others. aso your vitamin absorption...
  22. Food porn! now thats funny i used to go through the line in a deli or at a buffet and grab a dessert just so could visualize eating it. and i totally smelled it too! i do that all the time. i would bake a loaf of homemade gluten bread just for that scent of a yeast bread baking. mm... and of course those delis with the chicken strips... you know...
  23. When i as my sickest i was 16. i started dropping pounds at a time and my stomach constantly hurting. i would have my hand pressed up against my abdomen just because some warm pressure relieved it for a moment. so here i am this 5'8" tall girl who barely weighs 100 pounds and simply is in too much pain to swallow anything more solid than water.. i got diagnosed...
  24. how about a mixed fruit tray.. you could buy some almond bark to dip strawberries in. pure heaven and easily made gluten free also you can do a cheese tray... if you can find a health food store Schar and Glutino have good crackers that you probably wouldnt even ind eating with her. no weird taste or anything. and how awesome would it be, in my opinion...
  25. i had been going through the same concerns this past week. i got glutened on last monday..and was sick with that for a couple days. then i was sick again just a day later and i was so worried. i had never had gluten symptoms last that long and i began to question if i had another health issue. the symptoms are so similar it is hard to tell a difference. when...
