    I was gluten free for 5 years with occasional gluten cheating and now have been completely gluten free (no intensional cheating) for 1 year before I got pregnant. I was not intentionally trying to get pregnant either, it's almost as if my body just all of a sudden decided to become fertile after years of not ever worrying about becoming pregnant. I have...

    Well I'm getting by so far. I made cookies last night. They aren't as good as I wanted them to be but with a little tweaking I think they will be much better the next time I make them, I don't think I used enough peanut butter.... for flavor. Thank you everyone for your tips and suggestions!

    I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia in 2000. Didn't find out about Celiac until 2005 and I suffered with pain and bowel issues for years before that. I went gluten free in 2005 and felt much better, not perfect but better. I was in so much pain that I had already chosen to turn to some serious pain meds. I started eating gluten again after a year to test...

    I have been lactose intolerant for as long as I can remember, long before the gluten or anything else and one thing I noticed was there were certain dairy products I could eat and certain ones I couldn't. The two major ones I had to avoid were cow's milk and ice cream, with those I got the worst reaction, I won't go into details but it wasn't pretty. I...

    I'm just plain old honest. My health is more important to me than their feelings. I don't get annoyed when people can't eat certain things at my house and I would expect the same respect from them. But then again, I never been good at dancing on egg shells for anyone. The way I see it, I suffered long enough not knowing and now that I know what is wrong...

    Thank you all. I'm thinking about trying the wild rice thing, of course with epi-pen in hand and friend near by to drive in case it goes wrong but I miss rice. It was one of my favorite foods, hence the reason I am now allergic, I ate it as much as people in asian countries do for most of my life. Thank you for the other tips as well. So far I have...

    Thank you! I will definitely look into the boards for vegans and vegetarians. The rice thing definitely makes things interesting but I'm getting by. I'm not sure if I can have wild rice or not, my rice reaction is pretty bad so I've been too scared to find out. I would love to find some more "premade" foods I can have, been diligently looking. So far...

    I am gluten free and recently vegan. Not officially diagnosed with celiac, blood test came back negative, but I know I am at least gluten intolerant and am just going with it. I am also allergic to rice and lactose intolerant. The lactose issue was what made me finally give up my beloved cheese and follow my complaining stomach to go completely vegan....

    I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia in 2000. Since being gluten free I have felt a million times better. I didn't know about Celiac until 2005 and suffered for many years with pain, fatigue, stomach issues, etc. Knowing about gluten and my other food issues has helped bring my life back. I wish more people knew and more doctors paid attention...
