    "I find, too, that if I'm eating healthy proteins, veggies and fruits (also some potatoes and rice), I don't have to watch what I eat at all". I too have had luck with trying to stick to meats, veggies and limited amounts of potatos and rice....I try to limit my junk food but i'll admit since going gluten-free I crave sweets more than I ever did before...

    EVERYDAY!!! In fact in another thread about exercise we were also discussing this....it's very frustrating I know!! Portion control, exercise, WATER, etc.... Some people are doing Weight Watchers, some others are doing South Beach Diet, others are seeing a nutritionist....you just have to find what works for you. Good luck and feel free to post...

"when you walk you keep your heart rate in your fat burning zone but when you cycle your heart rate goes up and you leave...

    Okay that makes some sense building muscle and all that.... I've been staying with it for about 6 weeks now....any idea how long it will take before I start losing some poundage?? Or is that just a body thing, it does it when it wants to??

    Okay this might sound nutty but here's the deal, I was intially riding my bike every other day anywhere from 10-15 miles and I walked (sometimes) on the days I didn't bike ride. Well, lately it's been so flippin' hot and b/c of my work schedule i've been getting up at 5:30am walking the dog 1-2 miles (depending on if I snoozed too long or not) and then...

Peanut Butter Bananas gluten-free Trail Mix individually packages fruit cups buy some gluten-free bagels and spread PB or something on them You could bake some muffins ahead of time That's all I can...

    I don't drink their coffee often b/c of the price and I like to make mine at home w/ gluten-free flavored creamer but it's a good back up plan if i'm ever on the road for work & need a "fix". HAHA!

    CarlaB: I agree with you.....this is ONLY a wonderful thing if the gluten-free Cookie isn't being CC'd by the regular cookies....or CC'd on the line, etc. If anyone ever gets through to Starbucks w/ more details please share...I'll look around too & try to help out. At least we can still get the coffee.....THANK YOU LORD!!!

    I'm becoming a bit confused as well...i've said from the beginning that things don't add up. BUT....... 1. It's hard to always understand things simply via posts 2. My guess is GcBec has had to leave things out for protection (never know who's reading) 3. Anytime something like this happens it's overwhelming and can be hard to understand &...

    ARCHIVED Vitamin B12

    Turtle replied to a topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    I am probably gonna sound dumb but ya'll should be used to that by now, HA! My questions are these.... I recognized some symptoms in myself that were mentioned here with regards to the magnesium. (tingling & chocolate (which I before going gluten-free I hardly ate chocolate, now I want it all the time). Is magnesium something that you buy OTC...

    I can certainly see how you would be nervous about drs talking with one another...BUT one word HIPPA! So technically, the dr who made the allegations should not be disclosing your/your children's medical information or situation with anyone that YOU have not signed a release for. That's my 2 cents for the afternoon!! Don't give up....KEEP ON PUSHIN'

    This is nuts....I'm a social worker w/ experience in child mental health and DSS/CPS and this is absolutely absurd & the most insane thing i've ever seen. I am so sorry this is happening to you. I'm personally FURIOUS at the no visitation, not even supervised visitation. If it were me i'd contact congressmen/women, senators, everyone and their...

    I just had this same issue... I'm trying out Giovanni...it's not bad, leaves my hair very soft. I like the smooth as silk conditioner the best of all the products i've tried so far. I got their spray in/leave in conditioner which is working good. I also got the straightening gel they have out. I am not so thrilled with this. It's too thick & gummy...

    This was passed on to me from a friend. I generally do not eat out b/c of CC issues but I thought i'd post this anyway in the event some of you have any interest in it.... > The following meats do not contain gluten: > > > Hamburger > Bar-B-Q Chicken > Sliced Beef > Pulled Beef Brisket > Sliced Pork > Sweet ...

    I feel your pain...I have this same scenario often...and then they give you the guilt trip for not being able to eat anywhere..that REALLY makes me angry! Sometimes I just wanna live my life w/ my dog left ALONE! HAHA! One more thing....I agree w/ you southgoingzax if I hear "you can just get a salad" or "can't you just get a salad" one more time as...
