    If you reduce the gluten intake, that could also skew results. I'd be keeping her on a full gluten diet and getting it done ASAP, that advice sounds absurd.

    We only really like the muesli from Aldi in the gluten free range, not impressed with other things.

    Those in Ballarat, there's a restaurant called Chat For Tea that's a vegetarian/vegan restaurant with most of the menu being gluten free! Also if you are visiting Clunes, Widow Twankeys has some really nice gluten free options on their menu.

    My daughter was super, extra skinny before diagnosis because the food she was eating was going straight through her, she wasn't keeping enough in to be of a healthy weight. She's still thin, but she does dancing, gymnastics, martial arts, AFL, netball and swimming, but she's not skeleton thin and unhealthy looking anymore. I guess it's about how your body...

    I bought a flavoured iced tea, went to give it to my daughter then caught a glimpse of the label, the flavouring of it contained wheat.

    Might not be this, but my step mum is coeliac but also suffers malabsorption of fructans, which are present in onion, shallots, leek, garlic, chives, basically anything from the onion family, and also in dried fruit and dessicated coconut. She can't eat any of those things, on top of not being able to eat gluten. Might be worth looking outside of grains...

    Gah, barley hides in so many things it wouldn't surprise me if the softdrink used in the fruit punch had it in there somewhere, also some colours for softdrinks are derived from wheat, but generally not ones you'd use for punch.

    My daughter got sick at school when she had a fruit salad that was being prepared on the board beside where sandwiches were being made. The tuckshop staff were unaware of her condition (second day at a new school, I hadn't ordered tuckshop but miscommunication between myself, my daughter and the teacher meant she had a fruit salad) so didn't know to do the...

    I have an indoor cat but he still gets fleas because I also have a dog who goes in and out. Having said that, the dog is on Sentinel with the flea treatment and the cat is on a similar one so fleas haven't been a huge problem for us. I love our cat, he's such a funny little fellow, can't imagine life without him now he's part of it. I adopted him from...

    My friend is gluten intolerant but not coeliac. He said the symptoms are fast to come on but also fast to leave. He lives a 100% gluten free life, although has been glutened from cross contamination or by people simply forgetting and not telling him.

    Just a minor vent, I suppose. We went on a family road trip last weekend while my brother was down here visiting and my dad and his wife invited their friend along. I'd met her before, she came for dinner one night and was a bit excited to find out that all my cooking is gluten free due to my child being coeliac, and that we also do not eat meat. She's...

    That staff member is very strict with being on a gluten free diet and the place the camp is at caters to all dietary needs and have never got it wrong in the years they've been doing it, with hundreds and hundreds of kids passing through every year so I'm not really worried about it from that angle

    Our new school is great. 200 students, one teacher is coeliac and they are very proactive. The schools here don't tend to provide food and are very on top of watching out that kids don't share and avoid cross contamination. They offer cooking this term and are using only certified gluten free ingredients (Orgran brand and the likes) to make sure it's absolutely...

    My cousin makes it using cornflour and not all cornflour is gluten free. Maybe that's it?

    Chickpea rounds, mashed potato, steamed veges (broccoli, carrots and beans) for us tonight.

    Hi again everyone. Well we've had yet another move, arrived here about 3 weeks ago but have very limited internet access at the moment. The internet is not yet connected at my house. In fact, we don't even have water other than tank water! So I'm using the computer at my dad's house. We made it down, school went back for the year last week and my daughter...

    We're moving to Victoria, starting the drive down on Saturday. We're moving to Ballarat, but will be travelling throughout Victoria during school holiday times so was after some ideas of different eating places in the area that cater to vegans with coeliac disease. There are some around where we're moving to, and also in Melbourne, but I'm more meaning...

    Basic 4 ingredient recipe: Nutellex Icing sugar Vanilla gluten-free Flour I'm not much of a measurer, but I *think* this is roughly it 500g Nutellex, 4 cups of flour, 1/2 cup of icing sugar and a little bit of vanilla essence. Cream butter, vanilla and icing sugar then slowly add the flour. Like I said, it might be off, I never measure lol. ...

    Thanks for that! My daughter has a couple of parties on at school this week so I'll do all the cooking at once then stick the shortbread and cakes in bags in the freezer, can ice the day before, that'll be no problem.
  20. come dance with me
    How far ahead of time do you make things like Christmas shortbread, cake and muffins? They are all vegan. We'll be away and I want everything ready to go, not have to waste time cooking when we're in a holiday apartment.

    I replaced the toaster, wooden spoons and plastic cutting boards. We now have a toaster with GLUTEN FREE GLUTEN FREE in bright blue niko across the top and front, I only ever do gluten free baking so have replaced the wooden spoons with new wooden spoons but have 2 large plastic ones for in case we do other baking, which we haven't for 3 years anyway. The...

    I picked up a pack of 2 Macro Christmas puddings from Woolies. Good to see the Christmas range expanding

    Helgas and Burgen both now have gluten free breads in our local shopping centre.

    I ended up getting really busy so just made some beetroot dip and took plain rice crackers. We also took a little lunch pack with a few things in it. It's all nut free because of allergies of other children at the dance class so nuts are out.

    Everything is set out on tables once we get there, and it's all outdoors so a fruit salad is probably not going to last all that well for this particular party unfortunately. We might just make some cupcakes then I'll pack her a cooler pack of food and put the rest on a plate for everyone else. There will be a few more occasions coming up. Any ideas...
