ARCHIVED Chick Filet Announces gluten-free Kids Meal
BeFree replied to 1974girl's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
"Just so you know, the fries are deep fried, and the breaded chicken is cooked in a pressure cooker, so there is no cross contamination." Awesome!!! Good to know! -
ARCHIVED Dr. Oz Today Is gluten-free Stuff
BeFree replied to 1974girl's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I missed the first few minutes when they were talking on the couch...what did they talk about? Was it just the story about how she discovered the Celiac from being on Survivor? -
ARCHIVED Dr. Oz Today Is gluten-free Stuff
BeFree replied to 1974girl's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
"I think one of thier favorites is that envelopes have wheat glue ( myth") Oh my this is not true? I've been dabbing at my envelopes for months... "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." Very good point...I like... -

So the ChickFilA fries are in a dedicated fryer? I didn't know that!!!! -
"Just wondering where everyone gets their glutening pain. Mine is pretty low and feels sort of like period cramps but worse" Yes that's what mine feels like. The morning after I eat something I shouldn't for dinner, there it is. But I think that is what made it hard to connect it to my diet for a long time, it felt like "woman problems".

ARCHIVED The Hardest Part About Celiac For Me Is...
BeFree replied to GFreeMO's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
The hardest part for me is...no beer! I have adjusted to all of the new foods with no problems at all, but my favorite summer treat used to be Blue Moon Summer Honey Wheat beer, which I obviously can't have any more! When I would buy this special seasonal beer on the first warm day of the year, it really felt like summer. I still have some in my fridge... -
"I love my lettuce wraps now and I cant believe I just said that lol." I have a new love for lettuce wraps too! Though I've been just making them at home, not ordering them out.

For lunch today: Spaghetti squash with a sort of tomatoey/sour creamy sauce that I made up with stuff in my fridge LOL. Good stuff! Gonna use the rest of the squash to try making the Squash Fritters they did on The Chew today. They used an egg/flour batter. Do you think it will work to just substitute cracker crumbs or something? -
"So after all of the complaining I did about RR, I have to confess.....I called the local RR today and they said they do have the dedicated fryer and Udi's buns. I took my daughter to lunch there and it was fabulous! The only bloat I got was from being completely full of an amazing hamburger. Pretty spendy so that won't happen often but it is nice to have...

LOL @ Silk...I haven't had good experiences eating out so far. The only place I've tried to eat is Boston Market. I tell them, "No cornbread on my plate, I'm allergic", when I place my order, and the order taker says, "No problem!" And then my plate comes out with cornbread on it. In order to get them to leave the cornbread off my plate, I literally have...

Welcome to the board CarpeDiem and while you may struggle at times, you will be enjoying many healthy and pain-free days ahead! I don't have a diagnosis, but after being on the gluten-free diet for four months now I feel 100% better, and I woke up this morning feeling healthy and balanced. So what a great start to 2012! Glad to be feeling better and...

ARCHIVED First Christmas As A Celiac
BeFree replied to eborzecki's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I had my first gluten-free Thanksgiving this year and I also was concerned about it, because I was staying with family, (rather than just attending one dinner). Therefore we were sharing every meal together, and sharing food and cooking is a big deal in my family. I know it's complicated and worrisome. I'm happy to say it went really well! The important... -

"Agreed!!! all of the gluten-free Chex flavors-- especially the Chocolate, Cinnamon, and Honey Nut-- are all regulars at my house for breakfast, snack, or dessert (and yes, sometimes dinner, too!!)" Box of cereal is empty now but I'm saving the chocolate crumbs in the bottom of the bag to put on ice cream or something...too good to waste! For brunch... -

"I can find gluten-free bread as a relacement, but not a summer tomato. I loved hot toast with peanut butter." Carolinakip, I'm sorry that you can't eat those things. I love both of those things too, I 'm really trying hard to focus on enjoying what I *can* eat, not taking anything for granted! This morning I had vanilla flavored black coffee... -

Just saw this advertised up there on the banner this morning, anyone used this? Is it....reputable? Looks like there's some cool people on there but I don't know. If not this one, can anyone recommend another singles site or group that might be better?

Just a simple apple with peanut butter and black coffee. I count my blessings that I can have peanut butter. I think a peanut allergy would be far harder to live with than a gluten intolerance. -

"Oh BeFree, I am so happy for you that you are able to eat all that stuff. I couldn't eat a single morsel of it" THANK YOU I am so happy too--it's been trial and error for the last couple of months figuring out what I can eat, yesterday was more of a "trial" day and I'm happy to say I feel fantastic this morning. I am DEFINITELY counting my blessings... -

For a cold rainy day: Hormel Turkey Chili, I was so happy to find some canned chili that is gluten and soy free, wonder of wonders! Mixed with some canned corn and rotel tomatoes, with some tortilla chips on top. Bob's cornbread on the side.
