    Wow! Thank you for your story Trish Trish! Why would someone go gluten free if they didn't need to? A FAD?!? Wow. I'm wondering if that is what happened to my food now. Hmmmm... I haven't been glutoned since but then again, the only take out I've had is Jason's and only once.

    LOL, we're in synch. I hope you enjoyed your pizza and that you're not feeling too bad today. I have a headache myself today and of course the cramping and the Big D. I just hope it only lasts for a day or two this time.

    I resisted the cookies.. lol I ended up snacking on some of my gluten-free cookies last night. It made me laugh to remember this post.

    Well, I ate the pizza and NO stomach pain (and yes, it was very tasty but I liked the gluten-free pizza from our local chain just as much) . Of course my other issue has returned this morning but I expected that. The most important aspect is that I have no "appendix" pain. I knew I'd had the pain on empty stomach's before and the pain didn't go away with...

    OOOOHhhhhhh CAKE!! COOOKIES!! I hadn't thought of THAT! LOL Yes! I know I'll be sick tomorrow.... and I know I'll have MAJOR Big D but if I don't have stomach pain, then I have my answer. I am only doing this ONCE. I never want to put gluten anything in my mouth ever again!

    I went to the OB today about my stomach pains, she was the last step in Dr's interested in if their specialty could be the cause. She's scheduling me for a hysterectomy in 3 weeks. Last time I had a laporoscopy done (for endometriosis), she'd noted that I had a lot of scar tissue adhering my uterus to my abdominal wall. This "may" account for the stomach...

    This product is a gluten free lip balm And a gluten-free Open Original Shared Link I think a lot of their products are gluten-free

    HUGS! I know what you mean about just jumping in and trying it though. We have to listen to our bodies, if our bodies are getting sick due to food, then we owe it to ourselves to track down which foods and to never bother our bodies with it again! I hope you get great gluten-free results like I did. It's SO nice not to be a prisoner in my home every first...

    HOLY MOLY! I could have written this! Except no ADHD. I've had every procedure done that could be thought of for my daily headaches and migraines. I finally had radio frequency ablation done which burned the nerves leading to my headache trigger and have had no headaches for about a year now but the nerve is growing back and I can tell they're coming...

    Making "fried" chicken using potato flakes... I hope this works!

      Did it work? :) How are you doing? Haven't heard from you for a while.

      The fried chicken in potato flakes is REALLY yummy. The whole family likes it. I've been a mess.. not gluten-wise but I had to have a hysterectomy and appendectomy in April. then in May I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. Had a double mastectomy done in June. Things are finally getting a little better. Sorry that I've been absent. Is all ok with you?

    I still don't always know. I've surrounded myself with snacks and staples that I'm sure of and then everything else, I have to look up as I go. This board is SO Full of VALUABLE information, check out the recipes section, I find LOTS of help in there. My snacks and staples are things like gluten-free bread, Chunks of cheese (not shredded), eggs, gluten...

    Hey Ms.Curious! I've been MIA because my 3 yo had pneumonia (AGAIN! 2 times since Jan 30th!) and my oldest son got suspended from school AND my mom has a possible breast cancer recurrence scare so I've been going to her dr.s appts. It's been VERY challenging over here. But yes, I've stayed gluten free and don't really miss it! I hope you're seeing some...
  14. NancyL
    OH, I'm DEFINETLY staying gluten-free! First time of no Big D in 2 years! That reason enough not to eat gluten ever, ever again! Cross Contamination is possible. I know for their kids meals, they serve battered chicken tenders and they serve burgers on buns, etc... As for endometriosis, I have it and have had it since I was a teen. ...

    I'm VERY new to gluten-free, but I've discovered many things that I already loved and was buying that were gluten free. For instance Smart Balance for butter, Soy Creamer for my coffee, etc. I just take a jar/can/box whatever that I would like to eat and type it's name into Google with "gluten free" after it and usually easily find the answer to whether...

    Ok, so my reasons for suspecting gluten were chronic daily diarrhea for 2 years and occasional (up to a couple of times per month) stomach pain (below my belly button) that was so bad that several times my doctors and I thought it was my appendix and went to the E.R. After I suspected gluten, I started discovering a lot of other things that going gluten...

    Corn Chex or pretzels! Awesome! Both of you mentioned using gluten-free bread. I swear to you, my gluten-free bread will NOT get stale! LOL I keep it in the freezer, but I was going to make meatloaf last week so in the morning I took 2 pieces out and toasted them repeatedly.... they would not get crunchy! LOL Every time I'd retoast it my husband...

    I know this topic has to be answered already in here, but I've tried searching the board and can't come up with the right combo of words to get my answer... What do I use in place of bread crumbs? I'm used to using saltines and Parmesan bread crumbs when I make chicken and meatloaf. What can I replace them with?
  19. NancyL
    I'm no help on the beer. BUT I noticed you mentioning Italian food. My best friend is Italian and she comes and makes me her "mum mum's homemade gravy" or for swedes like me her " grandmothers homemade spaghetti sauce" LOL Anyway, I found some AWESOME gnocchi's at whole foods that are gluten-free. They were potato and basil.... and mixed with my best...

    I REALLY, REALLY, REALLY miss flour tortillas... I don't like corn tortillas in the same way. For a quick lunch I used to eat refried beans, cheddar cheese and salsa in a flour tortilla. I won't eat a corn tortilla burrito... blah.. I also used to eat a flour tortilla with turkey, mustard, sprouts, cucumbers and cheese. Loved making my own wraps. Or I...

    I almost got the Margarita Chicken but the server said he thought that the tortilla chips needed to be left out, which I questioned because they should be "corn tortillas" but anyway, that's when I started doubting what they knew about gluten free. I wish I'd eaten the Margarita Chicken! Or you may be right, it may have just been too rich compared to what...

    I have been avoiding eating out and think I'll make it a "have to" eat at home. Yesterday I had to take my mom to a breast cancer dr. appt and we were downtown (so 20 miles from home) so our choices were limited and after the long appt we were both starving! We tried Central Market first but they didn't have a gluten free menu so we moved to Chili's....
  23. NancyL
    First off, I'm still really new at this but have been having amazing results in how I feel. Yesterday I met my Mom for dinner at Chili's as I'd heard they have a gluten free menu. Their gluten free menu had "Monterey Chicken" on it so that sounded good and I ordered it. I didn't have much faith in my server especially when he asked if I wanted gravy on...

    ARCHIVED Jason's Deli

    NancyL replied to Menic's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants

    I went to Jason's this past weekend and was SO thrilled! They took it seriously and even their Fire Roasted Chicken soup is gluten free! YUMMMMMM The manager even made sure to let me know that their soft serve ice cream if eaten in a cup was gluten free. I got to have a DELICIOUS half sandwich AND my all time favorite soup. It rocked (I was too full...

    Ok, I've found way too many ways to be food happy and be gluten free. I was thinking I'd go on gluten free and be able to drop a few pounds but that ain't gonna happen! I do not feel deprived of anything and am eating like a queen. This queen would love to drop 50 pounds but at my current rate of delicious food consumption it's only going to get worse...
