Pizza! Okay my Hubs makes me the best pizza in the world. He uses "Smart & Delicious Wraps" for the crust. They are made from Ivory Teff and Millet and certified gluten free. Add pizza sauce. I like ground beef and green olives on mine. My Hubs the Glutenator, even likes these and will make one for him instead of getting a regular pizza. Amazing...

ARCHIVED Hand Cream?
GF Lover replied to abby03's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Eucerin in very good. Check the gluten-free statis. I have also used cotton gloves at night with gobs of hand cream. Kicks it in the button. Good luck Colleen -
ARCHIVED Repercussions Of Cheating! :(
GF Lover replied to a84c72's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I am also on Federal Assistance, I receive Social Security Disability. I am eternally grateful that I do. Like others with limited funds, I do just fine getting healthy food. Let's see, a meal at McDonalds is about 5 bucks or something (I haven't been there in so long I can't remember). That will get me a loaf of bread that will last for a few weeks... -
ARCHIVED Gastroenterology Psychiatrist?
GF Lover replied to Celiac and Discouraged's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I have never heard of this type of Doc but I think it's an Excellent idea. I would go if I knew of one in my area. Not only are gluten issues related to depression but just having a disease can cause depression. Wishing you well, Colleen -

ARCHIVED Gas, Flatulence, And Healing My Annoying Insides
GF Lover replied to charisvet's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Make sure you've replaced appropriate kitchen items. Check all medications and supplements for gluten. Check pet foods, shampoos, lipsticks. For the roommate situation. If you can't move, make sure you stock up on papertowels. Wipe down surfaces before preparing food. Also wipe down plate, glass and silverware as flour may settle on those items... -
I agree. My life is no worse for not eating wheat. In fact, it's better. Why must people put so much emphasis on FOOD. Food is not something that makes life worth living. It's nutrition. Until that attitude changes, they will keep modifying everything to make it more attractive to the most number of people. If I had it my way, eating the gluten free...

ARCHIVED Repercussions Of Cheating! :(
GF Lover replied to a84c72's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Choosing to take the appropriate steps to control a disease IS easy. Would you take a pill everyday to control your blood pressure? Would you avoid donuts if you had a heart attack? Sure you would. Choosing to eat gluten free does not have to cost more if you choose the right foods. These same foods can be enjoyed by your whole family. Why? It is still... -
ARCHIVED Repercussions Of Cheating! :(
GF Lover replied to a84c72's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Thanks for your hugs. There are others on this forum who are also fighting cancer, debilitating diseases and fighting for their lives. We are all warriors and not eating gluten is easy when you consider the consequences. At least it is for me. Hugs to you all. Colleen -
ARCHIVED Repercussions Of Cheating! :(
GF Lover replied to a84c72's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I am certainly not laughing. And this next part IS meant to scare you. I have cancer. My particular cancer has a link to celiac. In the space of 30 days I have had 2 major surgeries to chop cancer out of my leg. I have had extreme pain, put up with a surgical drain and am just now trying to walk again. I now have a full year of putting a toxin in... -

I've been researching the drug Interferon (used as a cancer therapy). The interferon transverses the body in gluten peptides of all sources. This also causes increased permeability of this mucosal lining. Research has shown that the sudden onset of celiac spru can and does happen with some people (undiagnosed celiac?). They also show that a strict diet...

ARCHIVED Airborne Winter Wheat
GF Lover replied to bridgeofsighs's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
It can happen. It happened to me. I drove thru a hugh dust cloud when a farmer was harvesting barley. I could taste it in my mouth. My reaction was about 5 hours later, quite severe stomach cramping, about 20 - 30 minutes of the severe stuff. Colleen -

Hi all, Thanks for your thoughts, prayers and wishes. I sure do appreciate anyone who who can makes sense of my ramblings. I've officially moved base camp to my living room chair, yay. Had a stumble in the shower this morning and knocked all the shampoo bottles over but no harm done. My drainage is getting better, from around 10 oz. In a 24 hour...

I also get a migraine and never connected the two until about 2 months ago and everytime I review what I've had to eat it is from the potential of CC. And yes, I will react to a crumb now. I even reacted very nastily to driving thru a barley field dust cloud during harvesting, I could taste it in my mouth. In a way, I'm kinda thankful for the...

ARCHIVED Bread Tutorial Video
GF Lover replied to Adalaide's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Hi Adalaide, do you know if a hand mixer would work to make this and do you know if she ships her flour? I have not attempted to make bread yet and think I might actually be able to make this. Maybe I will ask Santana for a stand mixer for Christmas. Thanks for putting up the tutorial. It's what I need to bake things cuz I don't have the experience...
