    Hi, It has been a while since I posted on this forum and I have been gluten-free for about 11 months and made some mistakes along the way. Anytime you try to change a habit like eating gluten-free that you will encounter moments when you make mistakes. Think of it like a war or a football game. You may loose a small battle or yardage but you must remain...

    I have not slept consistently well any time throughout my life. I have learned to not let it bother me or slow m down. Probably the wrong way to handle my poor sleep habits but that is the way it is. I have found that most foods interfere with my getting to sleep so I try not to eat anything for 2 to 3 hours or longer before bedtime. Not sure if...

    I have to say that those replies are excellent. I suggest anyone without celiac disease or gluten issues that shares a household with a celiac disease person read and understand how CC can affect a person with celiac disease. Great responses last year!

    Great info!

    I would guess the answer is that rotator cuff injuries are common as we age and a person suffering from celiac disease might be less active compared to people without celiac disease... it is safe to conclude that maybe people that are less athletic and even more less active if you have celiac disease...resulting in people with celiac disease sustaining a...

    FoodShouldTasteGood Tortilla Chips. I really like these chips and they are made from sweet potatoes.

    Coffee has caffeine in it and chocolate has no caffeine. real chocolate (cacao) contains theobromine which is has a similar chemical structure as caffeine but it is not the same.

    I drink coffee and tea and I do not have a problem with caffeine. As a matter of fact I am a bit cranky in the morning before having a cup or two of coffee. Yes I might be addicted to caffeine...

    Thanks for the excellent info. Now that I am gluten-free for about 2 months I want to begin working out and put some weight back on.

    Sorry to hear about your loss. A few months ago my god-mother and a cousin both passed. I made it to one wake and missed both funerals. At that time I realized I had to get this celiac/gluten stuff under control. The point I am making here is as time goes by remember this event and use it as a source of strength to stay vigilant in keeping yourself as...

    Aside from the food issues you will encounter, when you speak of your condition, turn your celiac disease into an asset of sorts. Speak in terms of it providing you with more passion for research even when the research you are doing may not directly impact you. Explain it as a source to boost your empathy when undertaking research in general as you can...

    Well said mushroom!

    I am sorry this happened to you too. I will track the amount of time it takes for me to feel better and post my results when I feel better. I ate out last night and I made it very clear that the food I get must not contain gluten. I went through an entire explanation and ordered a simple skirt steak with potatoes. Today i got real sick and it hit me...

    I am gluten-free now and never stopped riding. I still get very small patches of rash outbreaks after being in the heat and sweating for an extended amount of time.
  18. RL2011
    My DH started whileon a motorcycle trip last August for 3 weeks and about 8,000 miles. The rash was first noticed whn I was in the southwestern US and after beingoutside for 5 days in 115 degree plus heat. I developed the rash on my back, legsand arms. It was very itchy and was misdiagnosed by 3 different doctors. I continuedon a 3 week motorcycle trip with...

    My thoughts about getting poor service: Speak with the owner, the manager or the corporate office anytime you go to a store, restaurant, or coffee shop after getting bad service or being frustrated by improper or lack of labeling or unknown ingredients. To affect positive changes going forward we all have to voice what happens for a number of reasons...

    Good for you! Glad to see you have not let your dietary issues restrict your lifestyle.

    Lisette, Thanks for the info.
  22. RL2011
    Let me know if you need a food tester to go with you. Have fun!

    Notme! I'm glad someone gets my warped sense of humor. I am tough person to deal with when I choose to be and I also enjoy meeting people from all walks of life.

    After reading about many other peoples stories here on this forum, I think you have to determine what kind of proof will satisfy you. About 7 years ago I had blood tests done after many years of dealing with gut issues. Those results were negative but the Dr said he is pretty sure I am gluten intolerant and should follow a gluten-free diet. He based this...

    In addition to the great advice given, remember to eat to live and not live to eat. If you know you eating proper amounts to satisfy proper nutrients for yourself then learn to control (ignore) those cravings. As previously stated, make sure to eat a healthy whole foods diet inclusive of proper fat intake.
