  2. i have been gluten-free for 6 mos...but i would prbly not go back to taking echinacea till i feel a ton better...which is not yet and yeah, i did only hit the echinacea when i was getting sick and usually for only a few days. i have heard of Astragalus... i might look into that. thanks!
  3. that's wonderful!
  4. Its my understanding that con agra only lists major allergens on their products. Someone else might have more info. Hope you are doing well Carrie!
  5. Cool site Kasey's Mom ! Thanks Tiffany...that is what I was thinking...so unless I'm gorging on gluten, it should be okay
  6. Here are some sites I like. I'm a hard-core online shopper--love it. My favorite ready made gluten-free bread here is the italian white tapioca. Know that the bread ships frozen and you need to put it in the freezer soon after delivery. They have a flat $10 shipping rate, so better to stock up. www.kinnikinnick.com/ gluten-free Pantry--I like...
  7. Below is an announcement I got from Clan Thompson newsletter. It is on the GIG's new gluten-free food testing program. It sounds like its going to be great. Only 2 companies have signed on so far so we can encourage others to join when we get the chance. Info is below: 1. GIG IMPLEMENTS AN INDEPENDENT CERTIFICATION PROGRAM FOR gluten-free FOODS The...

    GFManiac- I have put 2 of the letters I sent out to restaurants below. One was to PF Changs for the gluten-free menu and the other was to Ted's for issues with their menu... Hope the ideas help! To Whom It May Concern: I am writing in regards to your restaurant and specifically your locations in Indianapolis, Indiana. I was diagnosed with Celiac...
  9. I didn't see much here on the boards about echinacea... And I was wondering what the consensus was… I took it before diagnosis and loved it, but my understanding it is not okay to take with an autoimmune disease. I wondered though, if one is gluten-free would it be okay. Thoughts?
  10. kaiti/kasey's mom-- well, i watched the 'be' dvd last night on technique...and so far so good--my dh said it looked good i was a little nervous, but it turned out well. i haven't switched to their eye shadows yet..just the foundations/powders/lipsticks. it did take me longer than my previous makeup..but i'm sure it will go faster for me too. i kept...
  11. I've cked with Tyson and their fresh ckn breasts and their sknls/bnls frozen separate breasts are gluten-free too. The broth they are frozen with is made only from ckn.
  12. the cookies are small, as Ab said, but good. i really like the choc chip and the snickerdoodle too. i do like their bars for a morning snack too. i have not had their bread yet. i appreciate the brand b/c they are free of all the top 8 allergens. and they are one of the first companies (1 of 2) to sign onto the new GFCO (gluten standard testing) by GIG...
  13. shimma- what about bringing a small cooler with you and keep filling it up with ice from the hotel, assuming you're in a hotel.... ? it is annoying to keep filling it up, but i've done that on trips before. ladies--i am getting closer and closer to the diet...as i keep getting more and more fed up with not feeling better yet. my dh thinks i should...
  14. Kaiti-Thanks for the tip Kasey'sMom-Sweet tip on the nail polish. I'll have to try that sometime. I'll have to ck out the addicts page too. I had seen that before. What is foiling? Do you ladies have any tips on applying the base? It better make me look gorgeous
  15. Kaiti- I just rcv'd my bare escentuals foundations in the mail... am anxious to try them out!
  16. I'd have a real frank convo with your family about it. If they are still unwilling to compromise at times and you have to go out there are a few things you can do. When the restaurant I have to go to seems like it will difficult, I will eat something before and then bring something to snack on at the restaurant or get a drink. Sometimes I will bring my...
  17. bambam- have i mentioned manna from anna to you yet? it is soy free and contains some higher fiber flours such as the bean flours and the montina mix. they are a mix you can make in your bread machine or in the oven. i made it and the texture was pretty darn bread like--good! you can ck them out here: Open Original Shared Link jnkmnky-...
  18. Carolyn- You are probably already doing this...but are you taking the meds with food?
  19. Sandra- I had a Strongbow for the first time last night. They are good!
  20. Lisa, have you been gluten-free for about 2 1/2 months now? Do you feel a great deal of improvement with your symptoms otherwise? If so I might try another banana...but if the improvement is slow to moderate, I might give myself more time before trying a banana again. Someone people are able to eat foods they weren't able to previous to being diagnosed...
  21. Dang! I hate it when that happens ! Hopefully this baby will work! Open Original Shared Link
  22. What do you think glutened you in the steak and veggie dinner? Utensils, spices, meat?
  23. thanks for trying atleast
  24. Lucy- go here to ck out the crisp rice ceral i spoke of earlier: Open Original Shared Link there is a little brown rice syrup as a sweetner, but i wouldn't consider this a sugary cereal at all. is it organic too. not all the cereals are gluten-free, so make sure you ck if you buy them that they are the gluten-free versions. their 2 other cereals are...
  25. I like Healthy Valley...They have a cereal like Rice chex and Corn chex. they are called Rice/Corn Crunch'ems. And have you tried the Erehwon cereals--they have ones like rice krispies, plain, sweetened and one with berries. I like them all...
