  1. There was really no need to get heated. Aeraen made a point in a civil manner, and a very good point at that. Nobody is saying you can't be upset, but I have to agree that you need to deal with the other problems instead of blaming celiac. You were the one who came asking for help, and you just received constructive criticism that you obviously did not care...
  2. Me too! I'm under Rachel Dawn Ankrom
  3. I must really be a moron. I know the effects gluten has on my body. I know that even a crumb of gluten causes damage. So what do I do? I go on a whole gluten binge. At the drive-in last night with my new boyfriend, I had fries and wing dings. Today, he took me out to a chinese buffet and I ate...well, whatever I wanted! I'm paying for it all....
  4. As a recovering bulimic, I have been known to binge and purge on glutenous foods and then purge so I don't physically have to purge...however I end up usually purging more..its a vicious cycle. ><
  5. Don't take this the wrong way (or do), but it sounds like she's being a whiny brat (though I have another b-word in mind). I'm 18, and if my older brother had this and I didn't, I would support him. Instead, it's the opposite, and he supports me. Sounds like you need to give her a good punch in the face (that would be my reaction, at least).
  6. Well, nothing. I just figured it was a given that "this is Rachel's gluten-free food, so eat your gluten-laden brownies before you eat hers."
  7. Okay, so saying this makes me feel like a greedy b-word, but hear me out. When I make a special baked good for myself, I have to hide it from my family if I want any. Now I don't like hiding things, and I don't mind sharing. Its just that everyone else in my house can eat whatever they please, but they choose to eat my stuff first. I can't stand it! I...
  8. I've lost 30 pounds since going Gluten-free. However, I'm trying. Also, my blood pressure has gone down (it wasn't high, but it was just on the brink of above normal).
  9. Thou shall never trust a waiter with a confused, dazed look in his eyes after the mentioning of "gluten-free."
  10. I understand here, and can sympathize. I am currently in treatment right now (at age 18) for bulimia I have been facing since I was 14. In fact..and I may get a lot of crap for this..but I used to use my celiac disease as a coverup. Say, I would go out with friends and 'get sick from something I ate,' I blamed celiac so nobody knew I was purging. However...
  11. Hello Dear! You can absolutely be gluten intolerant without celiac. Also, there are false negatives all the time. However, that's not your answer. What you're facing is completely normal. Your body realizes it can eat without being sick, and is craving nutrients. You'll level out with time, trust me.
  12. Hey y'all, So I was reminiscing my old favorite foods the other day. Well I went to give blood, and while I never had *incredibly* high blood pressure, I've always been overweight and my blood pressure was not normal for that of a teenager. Well, both numbers went down by 10, and I've lost 24 pounds so far going off gluten. While I know that...
  13. My favorite thing to use is cookingallergyfree.com. You can just plug in your food allergies, and then up pop recipes that cater to your needs.
  14. Don't give up!! You have a LOT of support here. We all feel your pain, and I promise you, it will get better! You'll be glad you stuck to the diet when you feel well again.
  15. Hey y'all! I'm in college, and my only cooking tool is a microwave, no stove/oven/etc, and I was wondering if it was possible to cook gluten-free pasta in the microwave. Specifically I have Tinkyada's little spirally shapes (sorry that's not very specific). Any suggestions are very much appreciated!!
