ARCHIVED List Of Celiac Friendly Colleges
maximoo posted a topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Does anyone here (or is a parent of a student) attend or is planning to attend a college in the US that accommodates the gluten-free lifestyle? I think it would be great if we all list that college here for future students to consider as part of the college search. A list like this will serve our community for years to come. And as more colleges get with... -

ARCHIVED Help Please? 13 Year Old Son Sneaking Wheat!
maximoo replied to candygirl69's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
My 13 yo & 17 yo always text me if they are unsure if something has gluten when they are out with friends or something. I am lucky in that respect. It's a non embarrassing way for them to make sure they don't eat something they shouldn't even tho they have no gastro symptoms. If ur son is unsure he cld text u & his friends would nvr know.

maximoo replied to a topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Is it possible that your anxiety & frustration is upsetting her? You cannot show her how annoyed you get when she doesn't eat. Can she or will she drink a milkshake? sry I don't know if she can have dairy. Also be sure to give her a daily gluten-free multivitamin. Make a list of the things she used to eat, & make or buy a gluten-free version... -

ARCHIVED What Do You Put In The Lunch Box?
maximoo replied to Jennifernawrockicor's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
I always put my DD's thermos inside a large size ziplock bag as we did have a small spill one day. If there is any my leakage or spill it is contained inside the ziplock. -
ARCHIVED My Symptoms
maximoo replied to JessikaS's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
if you have bloody stools you should get a colonoscopy asap. It could indicate internal bleeding as in tumor or ulcerative colitis. However if the blood is bright red you could be bleeding from a hemmoroid or fissure. In any event get it chkd out. -
ARCHIVED Mom Wants Me To End It Over His Celiac
maximoo replied to KricketKrick's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
I don't see any problem with him being a celiac I do not like that he gets mean & withdrawn. How mean is mean? what does he do? Maybe he is mean cuz you are trying to help to much when he feels bad & rather be lft alone? If he needs to withdraw for a while & you know he does, is it really a problem for you? Ppl do need private space ya know... -

ARCHIVED Dr. Oz Today Is gluten-free Stuff
maximoo replied to 1974girl's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Lisa you say it's a myth, but I too believe envelope glue has gluten. I will surely stand corrected if you can tell me how you know for sure or point me to the proof that debunks the myth. -
ARCHIVED Chick Filet Announces gluten-free Kids Meal
maximoo replied to 1974girl's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
well it 's actually no different than ordering a chargrillled breast with no bun & an order of waffle fries which is what I've been doing for the past 6 mths. Well I guess packaging it as a gluten-free kids meal brings more attention. -
ARCHIVED Dr. Oz Today Is gluten-free Stuff
maximoo replied to 1974girl's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Dr Oz barely scratches the surface with many of the subjects he discusses. He talks too fast & jumps from 1 subject to the next w/o fully covering the previous subject.I guess with a 1 hr show & 20-25 of those mt are spent in commercials he has to squeeze everything in in the time allotted. I generally do like him but he should stick to 1 subject... -
have ur vit d levels chkd too. Most ppl celiac or not have low levels. Take a gluten-free multivitamin you are most likely suffering from malnutrition. Multivitamins are best taken with food 2x a day. If label says take 1x a day then cut it in 1/2 so you can take 1/2 in the am & 1/2 in the pm. If you take it all at once your body doesn't absorb it all...

My DD (13) was hanging with her god brother (23) the other day at the mall & he offered to buy her an auntie anne's pretzel ( her favorite!!) & she declined saying she can't eat wheat. "Why? Does it mess you up?" Exactly! She then admitted to me she didn't know what to say to ppl who offered her glutenous food. Her god brother provided the answer... -
