About Me

I'm an 18 year old gluten-free girl who may possibly have Celiac, but haven't been tested. I'm extremely ADHD, so a lot that I say makes little to no sense. I am here for some support in my semi-recent dietary change, along with help to see if I need to be DXd with Celiac (or just leave well enough alone).

I went Gluten Free in August '10 to attempt to stop joint pain. I learned in late Sept '10 that the gluten was indeed what was causing my pain (learned from an accidental glutening).

  1. It could be that the headaches and such were caused by the prolonged glutening. Trust me, it's hard, but you HAVE TO STAY CLEAN. HAVE TO. You'll feel sooooooooo much better. Also, after a glutening, I sometimes have reactions to milk.. It could be that to!
  2. I learned the hard way. Someone had told me that some are sensitive to the protein in oats that is similar to wheat gluten, so I was steering clear.. My little brother picked up a box of cookies that said "Gluten Free" and they had oats.. I had a reaction. I'd say just steer clear!
  3. Thanks guys I am pretty sensitive and oats are actually one thing I'm sensitive too. I learned the hard way. My 3 year old brother does not eat hardly anything so when he picks out food we typically don't say no. So we were at Whole Foods on the way to a doc appt and he pointed out Lucy's Cookies. It was some kind wih oatmeal and I had a pretty minor...
  4. First the Q: is it possible to have a reaction from stepping on glutened foods if you don't have skin reactions? My dear sister "accidentally" dropped the oatmeal this morning. I'm on my way to a shower but worried. Anyway so I'm reading through posts since my last visit, thinking I should visit more, when I run across the coffee thread. Someone mentioned...
  5. I don't typically HAVE mood swings more than female issues. Like, ever. The other day, mom had to go to the WIC office after she got me from work. I planned fast food for lunch and we stoppe at taco bell (warning: don't get the Nachos Belle Grande even without meat. They aren't safe andante all locations. I can't even imagine what the difference is!). ...
  6. I suggest getting glutino's foods. My brother (who should be gluten free but isn't) will sit there and steal pretzels and cookies. The genius bread is beyond awesome. I never liked ANY bread before I found that one. (I didn't like white bread before going gluten free in 2010; almost all the semi-tolerable breads are white) Personally I can't cook (I...
  7. Or go in so you can ask someone who has time to answer. I learned what made taco bell unsafe so was stupid enough to try something they didn't call gluten free. I now am only touching thigs like fries (that I've either asked about or eaten at THAT location so know I don't have a reaction) or chik-fil-a (the location near me is very nice; there's a pretty...
  8. I called nutrisystem (and don't advise it for anyone with a short temper. I got the new guy who had no clue. Doesn't help that my phone doesn't work well for calls). They do NOT have a way to accommodate us. But, medifast ( medifast1.com ) has a gluten free plan and it is also oat free. So for those that can do corn (and some other things but I forgot...
  9. I haven't found the Snyder's ones No stores stock them... Anyway: The cookies were after it started.. And I'm feeling much better today (including being so hyper that I had to go on a bike ride to calm down) so I'm thinking y'all were right and it was the Subway.. So no more subway for me Thanks! ~Padme
  10. The Thyroid came back normal. I'm not eating out anymore, and after today will cut down on the processed foods (*clears throat* I ate nearly an entire container o the frozen Udi's cookies in two days.. I think you're supposed to heat them up...). I'm a little less tired today (like didn't fall asleep when I tried to nap.. always a plus).. I've never had that...
  11. A lot of people have said it, but I'll say it again.. I'd SO trade with any small chested woman/teen! I wear a DD.. Currently it's >42inches (I just bought a cheapy bra, and it's too tight..) but it was DD when I was a 36in waist, too (I could have managed a 34 waist at the time). I'm sick of it! I have to wear a men's large (or a women's large/x-large...
  12. So I was dieting and doing only smoothies (Naked juice, all but the Green Machine Green Machine was how I knew for sure I was never purposely touching Gluten again ) and salads. I went to Subway for a good salad (I am an olive-aholic) and got the chicken and baby spinach. I'd never had issues at subway in the past, despite seeing warnings on here, so wasn...
  13. I went to make cookies the other day.. I bought the Betty Crocker Chocolate Chip Cookie mix (after checking it for milk..).. I then went to do like I always do.. Add chocolate chips. Hersheys: Milk. Nestle: Milk. Ghuildueris (I can't find the right spelling. But their chips are 70% cacao): Milk. So I settled for peanut butter chips.. But I WANTED chocolate...
  14. you managed to stop at half?! I have to bag them when I get home (and by then a third of the package is gone anyway) to make them last! Just take the gluten-free version. It's typically better anyway I look at a regular oreo and think "that looks interesting, but mine is better!"
  15. Sorry to double post but PLEASSEEEE give that recipe away?
