  1. 12 days isn't necessarily long enough to know. It make take a bit for you to really feel a dramatic difference since gluten has been consumed for a long time. It may take longer for your body to feel a striking difference. I know thats how it was for me. After a month or so I could feel a dramatic difference after eating gluten, but it took that whole...
  2. I have to say I disagree with the others....one of my students came up to me who I have only hear literally 3 words said from him hold up a cookie and said Kristin eat cookie? I was so overjoyed to hear him speak a whole sentence on his own that I ate the cookie without thinking. Though I was sick for days, I admit it was delicious!! I actually wanted to...
  3. 6 months may not be enough! Hang in there and keep sticking to your diet and after awhile you will feel better. Also, I keep a gluten enzyme in my purse for those cc days.. Though it doesn't make me feel great or a "cure" it seems to help break down the gluten and have it move through my body a little quicker.
  4. I'm going to my nephew's birthday party and my sister asked my to bring some sort of dessert that is both gluten and dairy free as one of the kids cannot have either. I know the gluten end as I myself as gluten-free, but anyone have any good and kid friendly desserts I could make accommodating both dairy and gluten free????
  5. Chicken marinated in mango salsa with rice...mmmmm! Already smells good coming from the crock pot
  6. Was it shredded cheese? Some brands have additives to keep the shredded cheese not stick together and clump in the bag. Most are safe, but check the brand. I stick to block cheese and shred it my self. I usually shred a bunch at a time and keep in a container.
  7. If you haven't tried those cookies yet I highly recommend them! I also flatten them with sugar on the bottom of the cup and then smooth out the kiss on top after it has been on for a minute...mmm....I am actually eating them now Betty crocker makes EXCELLENT gluten-free cake and brownie mix. I'm not a fan of their cookies, but some people are....
  8. New keyboard = tons of typos :/

  9. There are tons of places to eat out Italian! Do a search on this site for gluten free restaurants and you'd be surprised. One of my favorite places to eat out gluten-free is Italian! I eat gluten free pasta in my house and enjoy it all the time. Even my husband enjoys it. I feel your pain of bread. I used to fill up on bread and barely touch my entr
  10. I almost quit my job because of the fatigue, but going gluten-free has saved my job and has made me much happier as I'm not so exhausted all the time.
  11. I hear you! It's one of the most annoying things because it devalues our diagnosis. It makes it seem like we are over reacting crazy people who are out of control, but in reality we are no different than someone with a peanut allergy expect wheat is in more things than peanuts are. Granted our throats won't close up, but we still have severe consequences...
  12. People like this will be around all the time! It's not fair, it's not nice, and we shouldn't have to put up with it but we do. She reminds me of my sister. My sister thinks she's always right but she doesn't know anything about gluten-free which creates a lot of controversy. One thing I've done is just to take my own food with when I eat with her. I...
  13. welcome! I as well am self diagnosed, which can be hard because there is no doctor to help you out through the process in any way. However you've found the right place, I've learned so much just from reading other peoples questions and responses. First, I'd advise starting to eat just naturally gluten free food. It's the best way to stay positive about...
  14. The water for my eggs aren't boiling...I've never run across this before. I'm trying to make egg-salad with my students tomorrow for Easter but it's not seeming to be working in my favor.

  15. Who knew betty crocker had so many gluten-free recipes? Apparently you can make anything with either gluten-free yellow cake or gluten-free pancake mix.

  16. "Teachers make more than 200 decisions in a day."--Joel Springs Is that why I'm so tired at the end of the day ?!?!

  17. My husband went gluten free with me because he didn't want to eat things I love around me or even have them in the house. He indulges when he has a guys night at his friends house with no ill effects from the gluten. It's actually been much healthier for him and he has lost weight as a result.
  18. Sounds delcious! I shall have to run out to Cost Co and see if it is over here in the midwest!
  19. More homework...yuck!

  20. THE PET PRAYER: "Treat me kindly, my beloved friend, for no heart in the entire world is more grateful for your kindness than mine. Don't be angry with me for long, and don't lock me up as punishment. After all, you have your job, your friends and your entertainment. I only have you." April is Prevention of Animal Cruelty Month.

  21. Received my letter of hire for summer school today! I'm so glad it's so close to home this year!

  22. If I knew where you were I would hug you! I definitely hear ya! I feel like if I had some sort of other food issue, such as peanuts, it would be better---like people would take me more serious and not be such a "burden" on them. **HUGS**
  23. One word of caution. Do not start him on the diet before the blood draw. You need to have gluten in your system for the test results to be accurate.
  24. I use corn tortillas as bread and make a wrap with whatever sandwich fixings you desire.
