    Last night Christmas eve, after my Mom's for chinese, we went to my aunt's for a family get together. Gotta love my 78 yr old aunt but she doesn't have a clue.. LOL I'm laughing because it was actually kinda cute. There is food there enough for 100 people and she's after me Eat Eat... I at first said oh we just had dinner so I'm not hungry thank...

    I stopped at my Mothers tonight to bring her some things she needed from the store and she told me she made her 'famous' pumpkin torte for Christmas. I said that's nice I'm sure everyone will enjoy it.. She smirked and said I put yours in a martini glass with no crust... Aww isn't she just the sweetest 81 yr old woman? I looked in the fridge.. and there...

    I don't have much to say here but wanted to offer my support as well. Everyone else has said it all. And thank you to all of you for saying it because being new to this I've learned a lesson here too... My family is very supportive so I'm lucky, for Christmas Eve I asked my Mom is we could just order Chinese... lol She was all for it. I know the guy...

    I had a date tonight, first meeting of a very nice man... We went to Perkins where I had previewed the menu and found something that looked to be gluten free. Swiss and mushroom chicken on a bed of herbed rice with two sides.. I picked two veggies. Ok we're in business right? WRONG. My dinner came out with a big ol roll on top of my asparagus...

    Tonight for dinner I went gluten free AND Vegetarian. I sauteed some onions and fresh garlic in olive oil, added some sliced mushrooms, then a veggie mix I found in the freezer case (Broccoli, green beans sliced thin, carrot sticks, kidney beans, black beans and navy beans all in one) added about a cup or so of that and then some fresh spinach at the end...

    I'd ask for the recipe and say 'They were so good I just have to make more' and then you'll know.

    Green Beans- TGI Friday's has the appetizer green beans where they are coated and fried.. yum well those aren't gluten free so I made my own. Wash and dry the beans and then toss them in some egg whites and coat with any gluten free flour seasoned with whatever spices you like (brown rice flour works for me with garlic powder, onion powder and a little...

    I'm right there with ya sista and a newbie to boot. I know how you feel. When I get cravings for 'not so wholesome' food I go mexican. Just about everything at our local one is made with corn and if it's not it says so on the menu. I'm not talking Taco Bell either, this is a regular mexican restaurant not a chain. Tonight I had chips and bean dip...

    Glad to know that I'm not the only one!!! I went from D 15 times a day before the gluten free diet and now it's C most of the time... I thought it was just me!!

    I agree! It's only been a little over a month for me on the gluten-free diet but I feel 100% better and even can start cutting down on some of my meds. Attitude is everything I think. I too still get frustrated. I also have diabetes and the other day was in a store and started to feel a low blood sugar coming on and panicked.. I didn't know what to...

    I'm the only one in my family too. The rest of them with symptoms choose to ignore it because god forbid they should change their eating habits. I said to my brother recently when he was complaining about his stomach hurting and diarrhea after dinner... well you know the solution you just have to admit it... he said back to me "I don't have that crap"...

    I've had so many people say to me "What can you eat?" LOL It's like a gluten free diet turns us into refuges and we have to scrounge for food. I told my family about it and 50% freaked. I calmly said there are a lot of foods out there that don't contain gluten. Meat, potatoes, rice, all vegetables, fruits, spices etc... I told them I wouldn't trust...

    You know I just made a comment about the grieving process this week. I feel like I'm in the anger phase this week, everything is ticking me off, can't sleep, trying to wake up from this nightmare and live normally again. Hmmm not gonna happen is it? At least I'm not sick anymore, that's a blessing but seriously this gluten free eating is a challenge...

    Welcome Carl, My trail here is rather new as well, I've been on the gluten free for a month now. Firm diagnosis here too. I'm not finding the diet difficult to follow but I was a whole foods, all natural, mostly organic food person before. Bread is my big Ackkk with gluten free products. I've decided that rather than spend all this money on different...

    I have heard some pretty strange things about this Green Bay group at St. Mary's but eating subway at the meeting now that takes the cake. If something like that happens Thursday I'll be out of there before the first crumb hits the table. How can someone be the vice president of a club if they aren't Celiac? Probably her hubby is or something so she...

    Thank you Richard for a man's opinion. I agree. I was in a situation like this and couldn't even go to the bathroom without him standing outside the door talking to me. I think he thought I was going to make the great escape out the window. Come to think of it I should have.. would have saved me a lot of grief. Anyway to the original poster of this...

    Same for me, regular doc sent me to Rheumy, pressure points and blood tests for B vitamin deficiency (he was suspect at the time). Mine is gone or in remission if that's possible since I stopped consuming aspartame (Equal artificial sweetner) it's in many things diet soda, some diet juices, even regular gum!!! So if you are a diet soda drinker try that...

    Yes sir that's exactly what they did, cracked and broke apart into crumbs. I'm trying to get used to this new textures of things and I'm not having much success. Do you ever get used to it? Crumbly, melting bread (yes it was UDI's and it dissolved in my mouth before my teeth hit the meat and veggies inside. Toasted and then taking to to the office...

    One thing I determined with the cookies is that their recipe calls for more of their flour mix than my regular 'gluten' cookie recipe calls for and they were a bit floury. Next time I'm going to cut the flour mix by 1/2 cup and see if that helps. They were awesome but not like my 'pre-gluten cookies' and maybe that's not possible to copy them but I'm going...

    I must be one of the lucky ones with my gastroenterologist. He diagnosed me in November (this year) with Celiac and I have to see him in February for a check up after being on the gluten free diet for 3 months, then he will be doing an endoscope/colonoscopy at one year for followup. I see my regular doctor in May also and the two of them actually talk...

    mmmmm I can see it now, Judy get's a hamburger patty and puts it in her carryon and a week later goes to fly home (having forgotten that it was in there) and is denied access to said jet because of the odor coming from her carry on... LOL
