    Awesome sites and pictures mtraezme! It is funny because my mom just bought me a bag of masa yesterday. I can't wait to try these and I know my kids would love the tlacoyos with a bean and cheese filling. I want to try the sopes loaded up with toppings, YUM! I'm planning on trying it by hand at first and see how it works out for me, but the...

    Hello, A woman at church just had both knees operated on and will be home from the hospital next week. Her son is celiac and the women of our church will be providing meals for them for a couple of weeks. I'm looking for easy recipes for dinners that are pretty fail safe for non celiac people to make. The only 2 I can think of are lasagna and tacos...

    I just read the article. Very interesting read...Thanks!

    I didn't say that you deprive your family of gluten...I only said that I don't deprive mine of gluten because 3 of my family members are not celiac. I had no idea about your family situation prior to this post and if eating gluten lite for them helps them I can see where you wouldn't want them tempted by any gluten containing products. I think anyone...

    I'm shocked at just how much resentment there is about Girl Scouts selling cookies. I don't deprive my family of food that they can still eat just because I got diagnosed with celiac. I also don't feel bitter about it - to me that's a waste of time. I think everyone has some *thing* they have to deal with and my problem just happens to be celiac. It hasn...

    La Choy soy sauce and their lite soy sauce is gluten free.

    I'm a GS leader and love the cookie sales! It is such a great learning experience for the girls. They learn about counting money, budgeting, sales, organizing, and so many other things. Last year I was also the 'Cookie Manager' and stored all the cookies in my house. I don't have a problem with them being in my house because of the gluten issue because they...

    This is a great topic. I have to tell a funny story about communion. A couple weeks ago was the first time I ended up being at church during communion since my diagnosis. We only take it once a month. I also teach Childrens Church on a rotating basis and had to take the children up with me to communion. For whatever reason I hadn't thought about not taking...

    ARCHIVED Pasta Pomodoro

    Ok, you've got me drooling again. If you live close, please try this place. I'm sure you will be highly impressed. I'm going back for my birthday in 1 1/2 months and I can't wait!

    I've never heard that before. Where did you find it out? I'd like to do some research on it myself so any info you can give me would be wonderful. Does that mean we will never be able to break down sugars or is it something that will improve with the gluten free diet? Peral acidof? What is is supposed to do? I did end up getting a prescription from...

    Thank you so much! These are something I eat almost every day and they are so inexpensive. It's only 99 cents for about 30 of them, maybe more. The ingredients say: Stone ground whole kernal corn, water, monocalcium phosphate, sorbic acid. I would like to know how to make them if you are interested in posting it that would be great! Thanks again...

    I'm not sure. It doesn't list any locations in NJ so I don't think it's the same.

    Hi and yes I do have questions. I called the company that manufactures them to try and find out about cross contamination issues. They tell me they are made in a press that is only used for corn tortillas. I haven't seen any other tortillas made by them so I felt ok that they wouldn't be cross contaminated. I just didn't feel very secure that they totally...

    Hey all, I have been eating these for a while now. The ingredients say: Stone ground whole kernal corn, water, monocalcium phosphate, sorbic acid. They are made locally, but the mix is shipped to this company from out West. Anyone ever heard of these or tried them?

    Good for you Kat! It must be great to have reached your maintenance weight. Way to go! I think what you say about binging is so true. I tend to give myself little treats when I think I've done really well for a while (or sometimes just a day). I don't know why but I think I need a reward when I'm doing well. I'm sure it makes the weight loss so much slower...

    I can't believe this! I thought it was just me. I get irritable and edgy and angry. I also have repetative negative thoughts about things that I can't seem to stop, like about dying or tragedies or even something simple like I think I might have said something to hurt someones feelings. I will keep thinking about it and can't seem to get over it. Wierd. ...

    I was on Nasonex and Clarinex for sinus problems and have had them all my life, until I went gluten free. I've only had to take them a couple times since going gluten-free and this is usually the worst time of year for me. It's so nice to be able to breathe clearly. I got glutened a week ago and imediately got a stuffy nose and itchy throat (about 20 minutes...

    I did get it all the time before and just after I went gluten free. I drank my coffee with milk in it and think that may be some of the problem. Coffee can be very irritating to your intestines. Do you drink your coffee with milk in it? Do you notice the burping with any other dairy products? You could be lactose intolerant. I found I am bothered by some...

    LOL! Great names. He sure is a lucky cat and spoiled too. CLX is definately original. I'll mention that to the kids. I know it was a lot to spend and I didn't really need any unexpected bills right now. I think they did every test possible on him. I have other pets so I guess it's good we knew exactly what he had and got him treated for everything. ...

    Hey everyone, My pastors wife had a box this morning and all the children were gathered around. I knew trouble was brewing. My 2 children ran to me and told me she found a black kitten in the bushes at the church this morning. It had really smelly diarrhea, was skin and bones, was very young (about 7 weeks old), had balding spots, and they thought it was...

    ARCHIVED I'm So Upset!

    Joni63 replied to Joni63's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    Thanks for the replies! I thought it was just me. I've been on Clarinex and Nasonex almost steadily for quite a while, but when I went gluten free I hardly need them any more. I didn't make the beer connection until I had a Redbridge beer just before going gluten free. I couldn't believe I could breathe well after drinking it. That's when my sister said...

    ARCHIVED I'm So Upset!

    Joni63 replied to Joni63's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    Thanks for the understanding replies. I will talk with my mom again about it. I know she tries to be careful and my sister has been celiac for 10 years so she does know all about it. I was pretty upset immediately after it happened, but saw she was getting upset so I said "well, at least now we will know how I react". and tried to make light of it. She is...

    I am really annoyed, frustrated, aggravated, etc.,etc. She told me she found a new type of corn tortilla and she would like to make me a hamberger type tortilla with salsa and cheese. I asked if she read the ingredients on the label and she said 'yes, it is fine' and I said are your sure and she said 'yes'. So after I took 2 bites she said 'stop eating...

    Hi Blanche and welcome! The thing about the "made in a factory with wheat" really comes down to how much you know about the factory and how much risk your willing to take. I just recently had a problem with KAME rice crackers that is made in a factory and on the same lines as wheat products. My personal opinion is that I will eat it if it's made in the...
