    I need to admit two things before I elaborate more: 1) I am not a buffet fan 2) I am not a dessert fan (I usually have fresh fruit, cheese and chocolate instead) But, I was staying at the Bellagio on business mid last year and a group of us voted to go to the Bellagio all-you-can-eat buffet for lunch. It seems like it was $14-$19 or so... I don't...

    Yet one more thumbs up for Amy Lu products. They have mini chicken meatballs in individually vacuum packed plastic. They are pre-cooked and only take 2 minutes to warm up on a plate in the microwave. You can actually "ditch" the aforementioned knife and each these with a fork (they are small meatballs). Accompanied with a side salad and fresh veggies...

    Aldi absolutely rocks (I have presented a line of all natural fruit to their buyers in the past). They have great prices and their private label (Fit & Active) is top notch. They run a very tight ship at their headquarters in Batavia, Illinois. So if it says "gluten-free" it is indeed gluten free. Check out some of their Fit & Active frozen...

    I like the look of your meals incidences per day (5-6). I was initially afraid that you may have only been eating three times. I also like the fact that you're eating plenty of fruits and vegetables throughout the day --- especially the broccoli. And, your rice consumption looks good too. Here's are my suggested changes. WATER: Try and consumer ...

    A few questions for you: 1) How many times a day are you eating? 2) You say that you're eating salmon and meat... what size are your portions? 3) Are you taking a multi vitamin? 4) Are you taking a fish oil? 5) How much water are you drinking a day? Answer a few of these and I'll be able to give you further direction.

    Have you flown on the PS service ever before? If not, you're in for a real treat! It's awesome. You've never been on a 757 like this before. Based upon your status with United (Premier, Premier Executive or 1K) call the 800 # for reservations and tell them that you need a gluten-free meal. They will take care of you. I literally just flew back from...

    If you boyfriend wants to gain muscle mass then he needs protein, protein and protein. The majority should come from animal sources of LEAN meats: - Pork tenderloin - Flank steak - Fish fillets (broiled) - Pork Chops (trimmed) - Chicken breasts - Turkey breasts - Chicken sausages - Ground lean burgers (buffalo, chicken, turkey) - Eggs - Lean...

    That is absolutely great news about your weight. I have actually GAINED 26 pounds of muscle and shed fat since being diagnosed. And, I am stronger than ever. Gluten simply held be back for years and years. The cool thing about my mass gain is that I still wear the same waist of pants (31"), but I've had to buy new shirts that fit my shoulders. Not...

    Thanks for the suggestion. I quite possibly may have found a new protein source. And, I'm a magnet to anything organic.

    The new villas in your lower intestine that grow back as a result of being diagnosed with Celiac. The absorb nutrients. When you don't know that you're Celiac, gluten wipes out villas.

    Or a Rum & Coke on occasion as well! Both are gluten free, but not for every day. (Noted)

    Drink AS MUCH water as you can per day -- rather than soda. Preferably 7-8 glasses actually. Since you asked about soda, I am going to keep this thread on topic. With that said, the first ingredient (after water) in soda is HFCS (High Fructose Corn Syrup). Do a bit of a google search on this ingredient and then you decide if you want to drink it daily...

    Send me a private email and I shoot you a detailed plan about: - How many times you should eat per day - How to "build" your plates in the correct ratio - When and why to snack throughout the day Follow the advice from our fellow boardmembers, it's less about daily calories. You need to be wise about what, why and when you eat. GlutenGladi8or

    What is Virgin Villas?

    1) Fire up the Weber grill 2) Lightly brush a few cross slices of pineapple with extra virgin olive oil 3) Grill each slice approximately 3 minutes on each side (get a nice sear strip) 4) Remove from grill and eat as a side with the ham (Mmmm carmelized pineapple!!!) 5) Put on your Hawaiian lei that you bought at the dollar store for $1 6) Consider...

    I don't have an immediate opinion in a gluten-free friendly hotel, but I DO have a recommendation for a photography side trip. Talk to the front desk or concierge and see where you can rent a car for a day. Drive north to a town called Todos Santos (it's only 45 minutes away and well worth the trip). Check out the town's website and there's a section...

    Hmmmmm did you sneak into my house last night with Santa Clause and steal my weekly shopping list? LOL I forgot about the pulled pork! The Other White Meat with a White Christmas!

    Kirkland tires, Kirkland Toilet Paper, and Kirkland Laundry detergent are all gluten-free. (Christmas eve joke. Kidding of course). NO NOT ALL KIRKLAND BRAND ITEMS ARE GLUTEN FREE. The point I am trying to make is that you should shop the perishable departments for branded and private label items first. Commodity items are typically gluten-free....

    Amen on the hydration point. Regardless is you are trying to lose weight, maintain weight, or even gain weight, you should be drinking eight to ten glasses of water per day. Not only will it keep you feeling full, it flushes a number of toxins through your system. And don't be surprised in you see an improvement in your skin. Water is a wonderful thing...

    Give them one more phone call next week and see if they respond. In your message, let them know that you personally make responsiveness a priority in your life and you hope that they do the same. In your message, let them know: - The retailer - Date of purchase - Date of consumption - Code date on box (you may need to hold it up to the light and read...

    I went to Costco yesterday and I have, yet, another.... "Knife and Fork Lunch" moment. AmyLu's Chicken burgers are the bomb! They are individually wrapped in 2 packs (2 patties per package) and sold in the deli section. Toss them into your briefcase or backpack without a leakage worry. And, they are all natural without preservatives or fillers. If...

    For those of you who fly United, today is the first time EVER that I was able to see "Gluten Free" as an option for elite members. I clicked that box with a smile I used one of my Systemwide upgrades for a trip one week from today. I'll update you about the food when I return. So glad as this was never an option before.
  23. GlutenGladi8or
    If the manufacturer is an up-and-up company you'll get your money back. If not, go to the retailer. Just make sure that you have the box that they were sold in, and the respective code dating (as they will need that to process your refund). SO many things could have led to this: - Is the item all natural or organic? Without a preservative, they have...

    Since the day that Costco opened its first building DECADES ago, they had gluten free products at exceptional prices. The only issue is that they were not labeled gluten free and most likely they are not labeled as such today. Do I have you thoroughly confused? I hope not, as here is the list of gluten free items that are on my Costco shopping list each...

    I am a huge proponent of ALL NATURAL protein powders and have tried several dozen at the food trade shows that I attend each year. I've literally tried 40-50 different varieties. And the winnah' is..... Nutrabio.com Why? # No additives, fillers, or artificial ingredients. # Triple cold filtration process including micro and ultra filtration. # Mixes...
