    She wouldn't be bullying you if she didn't have problems of her own that made her feel bad about herself. She wants to mask her problems, and being hard on others is how she copes. I'm not defending her but explaining what pushes her to be a bully. Seal your food like the others suggested, and don't let the bully's problem become yours. You know when a...

    Seems to me your friend was trying to explain or discuss why "you" are feeling poorly and what is making "you" feel that way because he cares. We always interpret people's intentions based on the way we are feeling. It's normal to feel that way and have these misinterpretations.. and it's a good thing that you are reminding yourself that your illness...

    I used to get sick only once every two years or so when I a teenager. Now I can't seem to stop getting cold symptoms, sore throats and my sinuses are always buggy in the mornings. I haven't been on the diet for long though and I'm also still in the elimination process to see if other foods are bothering me.

    I was worried about the safety limit for most celiaks. I've been eating products labeled "gluten free" thinking they contained 0 gluten, but turns out only "naturally" gluten free products are 0. My symptoms are extremely sneaky and I would hate to think I was being glutened then blamed it on something else. and do all of these classifications contain...

    This is how foods are labeled gluten free here.. I'm not sure if it's right or wrong. I really need your insights on this. The text might sound funny because I translated it through Google translate: Most people who have celiac disease can not tolerate more than 50 mg gluten per day. There have been clinical research has emerged is the general limit in...

    Yeap. Irritability, anxiety, depression, and even panic attacks. Irritability always comes first for me .. which is how I can tell I got glutened by something. Last time if was nailpolish. I think that the best thing you can do is eat things that are high on energy but won't damage your health.. Maybe nuts dipped in honey, dark chocolate, avocado salad...

    Glad to hear that! You can put all sorts of things in the bread like olives and dried tomatoes to give them an Italian flavor.. or even raisins so they're like english cake. I bought a bread maker two days ago and it included many gluten-free recipes. It's great since I can have fresh bread every day with very little work, and costs a lot less than ready...

    Since you're self-diagnosed I'm guessing you didn't check your vitamin/ mineral levels or if you might be anemic.. or your kidneys and so on to make sure everything is working? Last year I was cold day and night.. people would look at me like I'm some kindof loon because I would look like an Eskimo wearing a winter coat in class.. even though I ate so healthy...

    Can you do oats, yeast, and any type of lactose free milk (soy, almond, coconut or cow milk with extracted gluten)? If yes, then get an oat flour mix and a bread-maker. Lots of recipes with only these ingredients + oil, and it comes out very moist and soft. Doesn't even need reheating because it stays soft and in-tact. You can do so many things with oats...

    All nuts, seeds as well as beans are unsafe for me until the doc has determined if I'm getting any G6PD symptoms or I'm simply a carrier. Problem is we don't know what exactly was making me anemic (the gluten or the g6pd). I'm not familiar with BMR products.. what falls under that category? This is actually a little awkward but I'm going to ask anyway...

    Believe it or not.. nailpolish was the culprit. I have a not very good habit of trying to fix accidentally smudged spots on my nails by licking them.. As much as this is embarrassing to admit I thought I'd share it anyway as a warning. Which products do you use which you know are gluten free? I'm specially curious in terms of lip gloss.. haven't dared...

    Yeah I don't think I'm reacting to oats, is that uncommon for someone who's been gluten-free for a few months? I don't have immediate reactions and my symptoms are somewhat sneaky. I love fruits very much but sadly started to get tired of eating only them. Peanuts are legumes so they're off the menu.
  14. dani nero
    Thanks for the advice. I have never had any problems eliminating gluten from my diet because it was just one thing and there were so many substitutes, but now I'm really struggling with legumes and lactose because they're in almost everything.. If I'm going to be serious about this though then almond flour is off the menu ;-( I'm finding that oat flour is...

    Thank you so much Skylark

    Thank you all! I appreciate your input very much :-) xoxo

    I haven't visited the doc yet because I'm waiting to be registered at a new clinic, so I don't know what supplements I might be missing :-( I'm a little because I got reddish burning sores on the corners of my mouth. They burn when I laugh or try to open wide while eating (lol)and they hurt a little ;( Are they a lack of something or even related to GI...

    I really love bananas and coconuts! Thank you for the tips! Would it work as well with corn and potato flour though? I think almond is ok but I'm sadly not sure yet since I didn't get that far with the elimination diet yet. I got diagnosed with G6PD when my husband and I did compatibility blood tests. I never confirmed whether I'm symptomatic or simply a...

    Everyone feels like that in the beginning, but it's not the real you speaking, it's actually your addiction to all those harmful foods that is reacting and protesting. It is hard in the beginning because it's a big change. It's never easy, and nothing worth the effort is ever easy, but believe me it's worth it. You'll soon learn that a home-made burger...

    I've decided to remove soy and legumes from my diet as well, since I'm not feeling as well as I did when I had nothing to eat except rice, meat, and greens. Just curious to know what other people who are off gluten, soy as well as other legumes, and lactose have when they decide they want really yummy and filling treats? :-) I had an amazing gluten...

    it's like saying rice porridge isn't real because you didn't use oats haha. Honestly you were being nice by not laughing at her intelligence. You're the one who did her a favor :-P

    First off, happy birthday. Reading your post was so heartbreaking! It sucks to feel left out or forgotten. I'm so sorry you had a crummy party and yes what you went through is very understandable and sympathized with. You're a very sweet person for being patient with your family. Some websites state that the best solution is to bring your own back...

    Thank you for this post. I have mild ADHD and OCD as well as amenorrhea and a few digestive issues. I didn't know that the OCD could be linked to the intolerance as well. Anyone know how long it takes exactly for the neurological symptoms to subside?

    Hi Tamtam. I have been to Riyadh but not Dahran. There were plenty of gluten-free sections at large supermarkets like Danoub, Carefour, Lulu, and Tamimi (Safeway).. The restaurants and shops have no idea what gluten even is though, so they know nothing about CC or hidden gluten in sauces. It's up to you to be safe if you choose to eat out. Also not all...

    I'm glad to be here as well! and yes I'm not so confused anymore :-) xoxoxoxoxoxo
