  1. Since your son is living on his own, has he done a lot of his own shopping before? Does he know what to lookout for and what is available? If you did a lot of his grocery shopping when he was growing up he might not know what to look for. Before I was diagnosed I had been doing my own shopping for a couple of years and am finding it challenging to find what...
  2. It is unclear from your post if you son is living in dorms on campus or on his own while he is in college. He might be finding it so hard to find gluten free food on campus that he figures it is not worth the effort (especially if the dining halls are very impersonal.) I wasn't diagnosed until recently and am going back to graduate school this fall. It has...
  3. Wenmin, Thanks for that comprehensive list. This whole thing just shows how little I actually knew about what I was putting in my body. Thanks again.
  4. I know what you mean about being upset by the possibility of not being able to backpack. It was one of the first things I thought about not being able to do. If you have a stove and don't have to carry your water you can always take rice and beans (dehydrated) for food. It is a good source of protein and not too heavy. Humus and cheese for lunches with soft...
  5. If anyone is interested they are talking about a study (not the best analysis, I think) on the prevalence. Open Original Shared Link
  6. Yeah! I think I just looked at their pre-mixed ones at the store. Thanks for the information. It will be on my next shopping list.
  7. Thank you everyone for your advice. I am most pessimistic because I went to the grocery store near me and found very few gluten free foods (no gluten free pasta for example). Your lists of foods to add helps. I don't eat beans (except for green beans) as I have never liked their texture and have always been limited in the meat I eat. I guess now I have a...
  8. Hi, I used to drink Carnation instant breakfast when I was running late, but it is not gluten free. Does anyone know of any good tasting gluten free instant breakfasts I can have instead? I am often running late in the morning. I don't have any problem (so far) with dairy so that isn't an issue. Thanks.
  9. I tend to eat meat once or twice a week at dinner, chicken usually. Before going gluten free I never ate much meat, but I had a lot of milk and cheese and peanut butter, which usually was enough. Now I just seem to be unsure about everything I eat. I used to know how much of different things I would need, but now I just feel confused abou the whole topic...
  10. When it comes to putting things down on the coutner, I have a small space that is just mine. However, do I need to worry about gluten that might be on the bottom of the dishes I am using if I have to put them down in the other area? What about the door nobs to the cabinets? Is the regular setting on the dishwasher ok or should we have it do the pots/pans...
  11. This weekend when I was shopping for cereal I must have seen the old boxes. It is exciting that corn chex will also be gluten free.
  12. Thanks for all your suggestions. I asked because it seems like every other time I shower I somehow end up with shampoo in my mouth no matter how hard I try not to. I just figured it would be easier to have all my products gluten free especially since I like being outside and when reapplying there isn't always somewhere to wash your hands. Thanks again...
  13. Hello, I was diagnosed with celiac disease almost two weeks ago. I only went through the tests because of an off handed comment I made to a doctor about some D. A couple of months later I got the diagnosis after blood tests and biopsies. My symptoms (thankfuly) were never very bad. It was intermitent. How do I know now that I have succeeded at becoming free...
  14. Hi, I was wondering if anyone knew where I could find a list of gluten free shampoo, conditioner, body wash, sunscreen, make-up? I found the list of ingredients in foods that shouldn't be eaten. I was wondering if there was a similar list for body products. Thanks.
  15. Corn Chex are not gluten free, also it does not say it is on the box.
