  1. I haven't been in a work environment since self diagnosing. But I have always had weird little food issues and my co-workers were used to me refusing food in favor of what I packed for myself and with the exception of one..did not hassle me about what I was or wasn't eating...and that was more out of concern that I might be not be eating enough. My friends...
  2. Weepy, short tempered, self destructive and suicidal. Last week got very 'dark' around here and I didn't know why.....it got to the point where I thought that I had finally had some sort of mental break that wasn't related to gluten. After 3 days of horrible horrible thoughts about running away and hurting myself, I told my husband I was going to the...
  3. Definitely look into other food allergies...every time I take something out..dairy, corn, rice, etc..I lose a 10-20 pounds...I dropped soda and I look 1/3 smaller even though I only lost 8 pounds. I would also recommend watching a documentary called 'Fat Head' currently streaming instantly on NetFlix....scary...very scary but he delivers it in a humorous...
  4. I have always battled my weight...out of control gains while eating the same portions as thin family and friends. The only successful weight loss I had prior to going gluten-free was Atkins and Anorexia(500 calories or less per day, 10-20 mile walks and non stop exercise in between work and walking...my membership to a gym was terminated because they felt...
  5. I have been gluten-free for a year now an my periods have become heavier and recently lengthened from 5 days to 6 days..with 3 days being especially bad instead of just 1(joy!)..I just assumed it was an aging thing(turning 39 next month. I have not been able to use tampons for years...instant migraine, pains in my arms and chest ...can't use the new 'plasticky...
  6. After finally sticking to gluten free for 6 months I started having my suspicions about rice and corn....so I stopped eating them for a few weeks...then I ate rice and have a bad allergic reaction...throat swelled shut(scary) which explains a really bad reaction to zatarain's a year earlier that we blamed on some unknown spice/additive....once I cut out corn...
  7. I'd be curious to know how long she was dating her boyfriend....how many people noticeably 'show' at 1 month? And why was she so adamant that he ask you? Me thinks that she was either hoping for some sort of validation of her pregnancy timeline or she is just extremely catty.
  8. My husband says that I am as bad as a reformed smoker that wants everyone else to quit. My husband also has a history of depression, has a beer gut without drinking beer, was told that he has 'soft teeth' and there was nothing they could do about the endless cavities, he is constantly in pain and what doesn't hurt is numb, constant constipation, constant...
  9. We are considering a raw diet for them if we cannot find a dry food....they are 2 English Mastiffs.. so raw would be cheaper than cans and dry...especially the food that they need to eat(our petstore LOVES us). I have a neighbor that would go off the deep end if she saw me flinging whole raw chickens and animal legs into the backyard for meals(their size...
  10. No I didn't eat it. And I do wash my hands about 50+ times a day...I am so sick of washing my hands... Recent additions to kitchen right before symptoms... Blue Diamond Almond Nut-thins Nutella Smucker's Apricot fruit spread Publix lightly salted rice cakes all three of these are gluten free although Publix has their little...
  11. ...it is such a rare occurrence now that I am gluten free..I always freak out if I feel gassy and start thinking about what I ate and start checking label/rechecking allergen listings on websites. Every time I 'toot'...my husband accuses me of sneaking gluten....if only the worst of the reaction was gas... When I ingest gluten it's pain, it's panic,it's...
  12. I had a dream that I walked into Subway..ordered a meatball sub and ate it. I haven't decided if it is a little sad that this has become my new bad dream...it has replaced the 'not knowing my work schedule' dreams which are funny since I am a SAHM and have been home for 8 years. I don't miss gluten food....I rarely ever feel hungry...which is a problem...
  13. Margaritas can be festive and celiac friendly...my friends like having me at their house parties because my husband designates himself margarita mixer(to insure things stay gluten-free) and he makes some very good margaritas...
  14. Thank you OP for posting this...DH has been on an onion soup dip kick lately...I react but have been blaming it on everything but gluten(hormones, inconsiderate non dishwasher fixing husband, the heat, etc.) I read our boxes(regular... I do have the kosher labeled version sitting on my shelf being ignored for comparisons sake) and they definitely mention...
  15. I had a cheese burger with a gluten free roll at Pecos Bill's counter service restaurant at Walt Disney World back in Feb and had a very bad gluten reaction within 20 minutes...stomach pain, itching, rash, paranoia, anxiety, muscle pain, etc....I attributed it to a possible cross contamination on the grill since I had no issue with the Ener-g tapioca dinner...
  16. I think my husband has it passed down from his mother's side and I believe have it from my mother's side passed down from her father side. I believe both of our children together have it....however my husband is stubborn as the day is long and has no interest in being a 'food freak'..as he calls me. He also has no interest in the house being a gluten-free...
  17. Just think of all the money lost if people cut out gluten instead of taking prescriptions....all of the industries affected...drug companies, farmers, food manufacturers, weight loss companies...I often wonder if it is just lack of knowledge, education or if it is some grand conspiracy to keep us sick and spending. My husband makes fun of me because I...
  18. Hello..you are not alone! I have always been heavy..I have always been sick....and the doctors still give me a look when I tell them I think I am a celiac...so I dx'd myself. When a child prefers salad for breakfast and the same child spends 4 days a week in a darkened room because of migraine headaches..there might just be a problem. I lied.....
