    ARCHIVED Red Robin

    conniebky posted a topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants

    I haven't told anyone at work about my new gluten free lifestyle, new life, unsick life - don't want the attention/comments/questions... We all ordered from Red Robin the other day and I just wrote on my order gluten free please...like it was no big deal. I ordered a hamburger with bleu cheese. It came in a box, and I was IMPRESSED! No bun, and all the...

    Those undrugged cows, you can tell the difference too! It's awful the things they do to cattle, when you drink a glass of milk God only knows what you're drinking. I didn't mean it funny when I posted it, but reading it back, it is a funny way to word it! I don't understand it, but I cannot drink hot coffee at home or work, so I bought tea to replace...

    Absolutely! It was one of the reasons they tested for ms.

    Well, I gave or threw all my gluten away. My cupboards are BARE. I didn't realize how much of it I was living on. Ann's - are all those products bad or just the rice crust pizza? I got excited, found an orange cake by Ann's, took it to work, was getting ready to eat it and the word "vegan" caught my eye . It wasn't gluten-free, it was vegan, but...

    Oh, that makes me feel AWFUL for you. I soooo know that feeling. I'm sorry that happened to you.

    REALLY? I didn't know that or I don't understand that Yesterday I reacted to coffee and today to this yogurt. This is good information, but that's normal? Why? Because there's still toxins in my system? Yesterday my right pinky finger got sore and swollen and when I woke up today, it's normal. I know this, I'm being a big ol' B-you-know...

    Yeah, I had about 3 spoons of it and my bottom lip got that numb feeling and i got dizzy and my legs felt funny, so I would say it probably is the strawberries maybe. It is good, though, that now that I am going gluten free, I am SO aware of how I feel. I actually LIKE it! Keeps things from building up, I suppose

    They wrote me back (and even gave me a link to this site!!) Hello Connie, Thanks for contacting us about our gluten-free products. We know that choosing foods can be difficult for those with celiac disease, and we

    Hi all. I just ate some Stonyfield Organic Cream on Top Strawberries and Cream yogurt and am having a reaction to it. Is this unusual? I emailed them and asked if it's gluten free.

    I did Atkins about two years ago and lost a ton of weight and felt terrific. I did Atkins again this year and nothing happened. This was all before I figured out about the gluten. Well, I did lose weight in my legs, butt and breasts (of course ) but my tummy would not go down. No I'm thinking it's the bloating that I didn't know about - but, yes...

    I started (about a week ago) taking a Multi vitamin, fish oil and magnesium supplements. The brand is Sundown. I didn't think to look if there's gluten in them. What do most people take?

    Hi Everyone - I'm a little confused about something, having been gluten free for only two days. Is there a difference between gluten intolerance, gluten allergy and Celiac disease? Because I have been SUFFERING big time and can already tell a big improvement just from not eating gluten for two days. Is stopping it enough? Seriously, I've been doing...

    When I was reading your post, I, too, was offended about the "sorry 'bout your stomach ache." Stomach ache?? My Aunt Fanny it's just a stomach ache! I never heard of Food for Life, but that's reason enough for me not to want to know anything further.

    Thank you all so much for your responses. I drink Folgers Vanilla coffee at home. I figured out about a week ago that the generic creamer I was putting in it was making me sick, so I switched to milk. I live in Kentucky and I buy real cow's milk from un-drugged cows. It's pasteurized but not homogenized. I bet I spelled both of those words wrong...

    Speaking of sneaking wheat into things, I was going to make some tomato soup and one of the ingredients was wheat flour. I'm sure that's not necessary.

    Hi all - I started my gluten free diet on Tuesday. I swear I already feel a bit better. I'm at work and just had a cup of black coffee with sugar in it. I got feeling all weird so I know I had a reaction to it, but why can I drink my coffee at home with milk and sugar and have no reaction? Surely there's not gluten in different brands of coffee...

    Today is my second day of being gluten free. I was wondering if anyone has felt like this - ? Since February, I get up in the morning, feel ok, then while eating breakfast, this icky feeling washes over me, like dizziness and nausea - just a icky gross weak feeling. Then, when I walk, I feel "tilted" and like I'm going to fall over. I was dx'd...

    I have this patchy stuff on my left elbow. It's new, well, it's been there since February when all these other symptoms started. Mine is really more painful than itchy. It burns like the dickens. I can't really look at it, it's in a weird spot, but it responds to NOTHING. It will heal up just with lotion but it comes back madder than ever. I'm...

    I went through a very bad bout of depression for about two years. People were SO rude about it. When I read your post, I was so feelin' ya, because some folks are just like that.... I'd get "snap out of it" "you need to do something fun" "maybe she needs a man" - people can be so hurtful, and I really don't even think they mean it to be hurtful, maybe...

    Hi - I stopped eating gluten yesterday. Today on my way home, I started to swing into White Castle and then remembered that I can't have my White Castles any more. It made me sad, so I understand what you're saying. I love to have a Canadian Mist and ginger ale while I watch American Idol (it's a tradition) or a beer, and I know I can't have the...

    Hi everyone! I have been going through weird things since February, which doesn't sound long but it is a long time if you don't feel good I was DX'd with positional vertigo, and that was all fine and dandy, but then I noticed my legs felt weak and I have this freaky rash on my elbow that burns like the dickens. I was tested ten years ago for MS...
