    I have been gluten free officially for 6 months and have not lost any weight. watch what you're eating carb wise.... try more fruits and veggies and protein. bloating might be from something you're still eating. marsha

    ARCHIVED Should I Even Bother?

    frustrated09 replied to StephE's topic in Doctors

    It's a friggin waste of time. Don't bother. My mom and doc wanted me to see a GI specialist. Saw him last week and he kinda asked a couple times...maybe not directly but "why are you here, i don't have a clue what you're talking about. i only know about celiac disease, i know nothing about food intollerances and other intolerances." he wanted to do a fecal...

    Sounds like you might need to do an elimination diet. Mine only seem to take 1/2 a day of it to figure out the suspects. I just went off Legumes and am doing better. Spend a day eating the food you think you have no problems with and then start adding other food. last week i spent a day eating bananas, plain rice, apple, hot dog....the next day i was bouncing...

    go back to the basic foods that are known to not bother you. Last week I spent a day eating plain rice, bananas, apple, hot dogs for protein. Did you get a new lotion for Christmas or anything new that you've been using since. It took me forever to figure out that I had to change anything and everything that touches my skin. My newest issue is I think...

    Don't worry about doing this without your doctor, I've heard they aren't always helpful. Mine told me to try going off dairy and eventually did and then i went off gluten and as of last week i am off soy. there is no cheating. If you want to feel better then you cannot cheat. everyone is different but i have had to change out shampoo, lotions, toothpaste...

    First week in 6 months that I have felt normal every day. Awesome! I am self diagnosed gluten, dairy and soy intolerant. What do Soy free people eat? I need some variety.... My day consists of apple, bananas, 'hormel' deli ham (whole package in a day), celery with pb, granola by 'bakery on main', protein shake with coconut milk, and dinners i haven...

    Unless there is an oat problem, it might not be a problem. I am a dog/cat groomer and I just recently checked into the shampoos i was using and the oatmeal i have is fine. the brand is Envirogroom. marsha

    i tried the other day to eliminate stuff but pretty much screwed it up at breakfast, but by the time i got home from work severely bloated i had a guess as to what my problem was. soy. pick 2-3 foods that you know are ok and feel awesome on. if that works add something new the next day. or i think i couldn't stick with the same food all day, (i had to have...

    It's not completely hopeless. You just gotta figure it out. Chili and coke i would not trust. If you have skin issues, have you changed out shampoo, deoderant, lotions, toothpaste. Dove and Neutrogena products are safe. Some people don't have issues with these things but some do (and I'm one of them). check your vitamins or anything else you take. ...

    i notice a difference.... before gluten free days, i had days where i seemed to have to pee every 20min (not all day, everyday). it comes back when i gluten myself and usually a couple hours before i get it all out of my system. i can go 1/2 the day now before i feel the urge...on a good day. Marsha

    It's not always what you eat but what you touch and products you use on your body. I am self-diagnosed intolerant but I have changed toothpaste, deoderant, shampoo, hand lotion, vitamins. The day after i went off gluten i had 6 hours pure energy. it was the same when i went off soy a couple days ago. i actually had energy at work today. you might think...

    thanks everyone. So is it the soy protein that is causing the problem? I haven't been able to find anything much online like I could for gluten. I'm cutting out all versions of soy and will try again someday. I just wanna feel good and have energy. I really miss my starbucks drink. anyone know what drinks are without gluten, dairy, and soy at starbucks...

    I'm not sure how kids react to gluten and stuff but I'd say he's probably still getting gluten somehow. I don't know how indepth you have gone for him but have you thought about lotions, shampoos, meds. It's possible it could be something else starting up too. I just went off soy because i had bout 2 weeks of bloating. i found out by doing an elimination...

    Maybe? It might be one of those hit or miss choices.

    It could be soy or dairy? I have gone with out soy today and i am not bloated, finally marsha

    I am boycotting soy today and I am currently with out bloat and gas issues. If this is my current problem for the last 2 weeks, what do i eat now? are there sites i can check out that have useful info as to what i can eat? I was off dairy before i went off gluten so it's not dairy. My calcuim with vit d has soy...what should i change to? what milk is...

    I tried about 4-5 different recipies a couple weeks ago so I could get the families opinion as to what tastes the best. A couple of them went straight to the garbage. My family tested out 2 different recipes and okay'd the one I thought they'd like. gfreelife.com/gluten-free-rolled-sugar-cookies. If you can't find it let me know and I can type up the...

    I LOVE starbucks. The only place I go anymore. Registered card give free syrup and soy, saves 90cents which really adds up. I get ToffeeNut Soy Latte. I used to have caramel sauce mochas and then i went to carmel syrup and found out there IS caramel coloring in most the syrups (caramel coloring is gluten, my body knew it). just ask to see the ingredients...

    Thanks everyone. I picked up the Neutogena hand cream today and will try it tonite. I think it's the stuff i used to use a few years ago before I found the curel lotion. And I have been checking into the dog shampoos and treatments with my boss and envirogroom and possibly espree brands are good.

    My favorite lotion was Curel but once I learned there might be gluten in it I stopped using it. I've tried Vaseline and seem to not get along with that either. I picked up a Dove cream oil, but I'm not sure that it's gonna help my hands. My hands are in water all day washing dogs/cats, my hands get so dried out that my fingers start to split near my nails...

    I've heard that testing doesn't always give a yes or no answer. My blood was negative and I didn't go much farther then that. I didn't want to pay for a biopsy. There's nothing the docs can do except be on a gluten free diet. My family has been fairly supportive but then they've seen the change in me when I have a good gluten free day and I can be fun with...

    the boom choco boom with crispy rice was good until i tried 'dark chocolate dream with almond'. it's like $3 bar but it's bigger then the enjoy life boom choco bar. I got it at kent nature's market, I don't remember if Whole Foods or PCC has it. I don't care for dark chocolate but to me this tastes like real milk chocolate. It's dairy/gluten free. also...

    I am self-diagnosed gluten and dairy intolerant as of july 09. I am still working on getting all the way gluten free. i have just recently changed shampoos, lotions, toothpaste and many other items. A vaseline lotion i just bought sunday morning and tried in the store, with in an hour my energy was draining and within a couple hours total I felt like crap...

    The only thing that honestly works for me is walking. If I walk at least a mile in the morning before I go to work, I feel less hungry and sometimes do less snacking. I also eat a lot of protein....eggs, deli ham (hormel brand), protein shake and then usually in the pm i need a little sugar. I eat 1-2 bananas, 1 apple in small slices so it feels like i...
