Part of my frustration is I was glutened last week and don't know how. I think it was cc. And my stomach feels raw. Before I went gluten free I lived on a lot of gluten filled foods: pasta w/ tomato sauce. mac and cheese top raman w/ chicken chicken w/ shake n' bake cereal pb&j sandwiches pizza and other assorted things. Like I said, I am...

Thank you all for the advice. I don't have any slow cookers or pressure cookers or any other fancy types of cookers. I feel like an incompetent adult not able to cook for myself, whereas I used to be able to do this. I feel like I've taken a huge step backwards. ahorsesoul- is that parmasan cheese in the recipe fresh or grated from the can? What kind...

sooooo frustrated. Ok need to vent. I have gotten to the point of just eating the same three or so meals over and over again. I know I just need to try new foods, but I've always been a really picky eater so it is really hard. When I do try new things they end up tasting like cardboard. I've never been able to cook well so it makes it that much harder...

Hello, I was invited by another student in my program home to her family's house for Thanksgiving. I have never met them. I have also not eaten over at someone else's house except for one pot luck since I was diagnosed (back in June). How do I do this? My friend was peppering me today with questions about foods I could eat. I'm still figuring it out myself...

I have been gluten free since the end of June. For the last week or two I haven't had much of an appetite. Now everything tastes weird. It is not even a way I can describe how things taste different. They just taste bad. Has anyone else had this experience? Thanks.

Thanks for all of these wonderful suggestions. I was only two months gluten-free when school started again and have found myself (who was never much of a cook in the first place) thrown for a loop as I had to move, live on my own for the first time, go gluten-free, and start classes all at the same time. Getting suggestions here helps so much. Sometimes it...

I was wondering if anyone had good suggestions for gluten free munchies. I know fruit and vegetables, but I have been eating so many apples I feel like I'm going to turn into one. I need cheap ideas since I am a grad student and don't have much money. Mostly I need easy to eat munchies I can eat while I am studying. Any suggestions would be great! Thanks...

I just need to vent so I'm posting. It makes me so mad when people who do not know about celiac disease and its challenges go and say that it isn't a big deal. I was at church on Sunday and was explaining why I needed to have communion special for me. One person popped into the discussion and said that it was sooo easy to be gluten free because there are...

I'm at Eastern so I have to go through their system. I was hoping I could get a name that they could refer me to as I don't know what their nutritionist knows (I assume they have one). But I do know that Us medical center is not in-network for Eastern's insurance. I just don't want to have to make multiple appointments at the health center to get it all worked...

Hi I was wondering if anyone knew of any good nutritionists in the Ann Arbor, MI area. The first nutritionist was of no help as the handouts she gave me were not up to date and she could not help me figure out what I should be eating. I have now moved and am finding myself eating less and less foods as I end up getting overwhelmed when I go shopping. I need...

Thank you everyone for your information. I will see when I can get into the student health center. -
ARCHIVED Always Hot And Sweaty

Not unless I'm getting menopause in my early/mid 20s. Though that is what my friends always teased me about. -
ARCHIVED Always Hot And Sweaty
Googles replied to Googles's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I'm a little over weight but as I seem to be loosing some weight now that I am not eating gluten (some just bloated) I am putting more on with my exercise so I seem to be staying the same. I don't eat a lot of sugar either. And the little bit i do comes from things like fruit not candy. -
ARCHIVED Always Hot And Sweaty
Googles posted a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I have come to realize in the last couple of years (about the amount of time I've been having digestive issues- just diagnosed a couple of months ago,) that I have been really hot and sweaty. More so than other people around me. I can sit in front of the window air conditioner and be hot still. If I am in the rest of the room for me to be comfortable everyone... -
Kraft Catalina is also gluten free.

Thank you all for the responses and the ideas and the support. Sometimes I wonder if I am going crazy. I almost feel like it is a yo-yo. I'll burst into tears in front of anyone at the drop of a hat. So after reading everyone's suggestions I have decided to go back to a basic diet and want people's reviews of my diet. I am going to go back to a basic...

This is all so frustrating. If I originally didn't have trouble with diary can I develop it over time? Will I be able to eat it again at some point? When I was first diagnosed I was like, at least I don't have to give up my dairy. That is something good. I don't know which I love more, my diary or the carbohydrates I've already had to give up. I don't know...

Is it the caffeine or the coffee? I don't drink coffee, but do drink Diet Pepsi. So here are the things I've been eating. Yes I've been eating the same thing every day (at least this week) and still having the roller coaster but to a slightly less extent (or maybe I'm just better able to head it off). If anyone can think of what I need to remove or try...

Thanks, I will keep a food diary starting with breakfast. I am having bloating and changes in my BMs. The reason I think it might be gluten is that this isn't the way I usually react to stress. When I get really stressed my mind races and my emotions take a second place.
-
I think I'm getting glutened but I'm not sure how. I am eating all the same foods. Unless I am just getting more sensitive as this goes on. The only other change is that now I'm taking my food with me to college to eat for lunch/dinner. I find myself on this emotion roller coaster and getting angry at almost everything. (very unusual). I just want to yell...

I have had a number of gluten filled nighmares. Either of being forced to eat gluten filled food, forgetting that I can't have it and then remembering after I ate it, or accidentally eating something with gluten in it. They all end up bad.

What I did when I shared a kitchen was that I had my own cooking area. No one who was cooking with gluten products (in my case every one else) was allowed to cook there. We actually put the microwave between my area and their area to make a large delineation line. Also I had my own cupboards so as to not cc my foods. I also had my own sponges I used to clean...

ARCHIVED Are Most Vitamins Gluten Free?
Googles replied to oreilly15's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I recently checked (some time in the last couple of weeks) and called Centrum and they said their products were not gluten free (I asked because of a new formula). Good luck -
Thanks so much! I'm making gluten free cake for the first time tomorrow. So excited.

ARCHIVED Confessions Of A Cook
Googles replied to imsohungry's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I have two stores, one for my brother and one for myself and my mom (mostly her fault). My brother did a lot of baking when we were youth. One time he was making cinnamon rolls and forgot the eggs. Once it came out of the ove my mom and I came into the kitchen to check it out (and eat some). We looked at the cinnamon rolls and they had not risen at all...
