Thanks guys. I appreciate all of the great advice and the different points of view.

You're right. When you put it like that I see I've been being irrational about this whole thing. It's strayed away from being about what I can safely eat to me just being moody I guess. I suppose I'll go and just try to enjoy myself and see how it turns out.

I was going to bring my own food and I'm happy to bring my own food because it is worry free for me. But when we were invited it was they invited us and they would be making all the food. I made some progress with him and he asked his brother not to prepare or cook any of the food until we get there. My boyfriend understands how sick I get and he is actually...

My boyfriends family decided they want to have us over for dinner again. Most of the time when we go I bring my own food an I cook mine before everyone starts to cook theirs. Sometimes I get sick from CC and sometimes I don't. Lately I have been. So this time his brother (whom we don't see that often) wants to have us over and wants to buy all the dinner...

Thanks guys. The later in the day it gets the slower it gets. Just six more hours to go! I really appreciate your words of encouragement bart and rose.

As if it's not bad enough that I got sick I'm extremely irritable, I work a long day today at my retail job and it's Sunday which means that all the church people are coming in. I'm not sure if they are nice in your areas, but in mine they are rude and demanding and disrespectful. It's days like this that I hate and thanks to celiac I'm having an awful day...

ARCHIVED Acne From Gluten?
SmnthMllrX replied to CeliacFashionista's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
I get breakouts whenever I eat gluten, but ever since I changed my shampoo and conditioner to gluten-free the breakouts seem less severe and don't leave scars like they did before. My face is clear now. -
ARCHIVED A Bit Of Lighthearted Celiac Humor
SmnthMllrX replied to GlutenFreeAustinite's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
So so true... All of it. -
You can have this wheat, it's organic! And my favorite: I cooked it...Doesn't the gluten just cook out? Makes me want to stab myself in my ears... Over and over again.

ARCHIVED Heads Up About In-N-Out
SmnthMllrX replied to BelovedchildofJC's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
I never ate from in and out anymore just because I got sick all the time from it and I didn't know why. Now I know why. Thank you so much for this information. -
ARCHIVED Acne From Gluten?
SmnthMllrX replied to CeliacFashionista's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
I get these acne like zits on my neck and back whenever I eat gluten. They hurt so bad and when they go away I'm left with a scar also that goes away eventually. I always had them for the longest time just not as many as when I'd get glutened. My older sister who also has celiac had them as well and she changed her shampoo and conditioner to an organic one... -
ARCHIVED How To Make Boyfriend And Friends Understand
SmnthMllrX replied to charlotte-hall's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
After I went gluten-free I found out who my real friends are. Not to make you feel bad or rub anything in but I have friends who throw whole gluten-free parties when I'm the only one attending that is gluten-free. They would never decide to go out to dinner and pick a place that I cannot eat at. As for my boyfriend, when we go out to eat he eats off of the... -
ARCHIVED Just Started A Gluten Free Diet And Im Having Some Issues
SmnthMllrX replied to Molly14's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
My first week without gluten was awful for me. I know how you feel about the cravings because for a month after I started eating gluten free for every meal I'd eat I just wanted a sub. I thought the cravings would never go away, but most of them do. I'm going on four years gluten-free and I'll admit I still crave some foods and embarrassingly I dream about... -
ARCHIVED What Is The Severity Of Your Reaction To Gluten?
SmnthMllrX replied to kaitlynrose's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
I've been off gluten for four years now and my reaction to gluten now is the same as it was then. Mine is like a week long cycle that seems like forever to get through. My stomach hurts almost immediately after eating it and depending on how much I eat I might throw-up. Then my insides will proceed to hurt for about two to three days. Because of this stomach... -
ARCHIVED Accidental Glutening!
SmnthMllrX replied to christianmom247's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I've done this exact thing many times. Thankfully I catch this mistake most of the time. Recently I decided to make some brats for dinner, went to the store and grabbed the ones I get and didn't realize until I was putting them in the pan that they were beer brats and not the ones I normally get. I used to get mad when I did this but now I'm just thankful... -
ARCHIVED Discouraged About My Diet - Need Support Please
SmnthMllrX replied to Sunny1008's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
When I first quit eating gluten I felt the same way. I craved food all the time and after about a three months of not eating gluten I was feeling great, but I still craved bread like it was nobodys business and one day I caved and I went and got myself a huge sub to eat. Needless to say I got very sick and regretted it almost immediately after I consumed... -
ARCHIVED Exhausted <9 Hours Of Sleep
SmnthMllrX replied to GfreeMe's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I have been gluten-free for about four years and when I get sick from gluten I seem to never be able to get enough sleep no matter how long I sleep. I also sleep more fitfully when I'm sick like talking in my sleep and tossing and turning. It also makes my limbs and muscles hurt which cause me not to sleep very well even though I sleep for a long time. But... -
ARCHIVED Vitamin C For Gluten Reaction?
SmnthMllrX replied to deb445's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I accidentally ate a finger swipe of gluteny mustard on a recent camping trip and during my freak out I decided to take an emergen-c about ten minutes after eating it. Not all of my symptoms went away but my face didn't swell at all (usually around my eyes) and my symptoms seemed to be less severe than normal. I'm not sure if there is any connection or if... -
ARCHIVED Avoiding Certain Places Because Of Gluten Intolerance
SmnthMllrX replied to Rodmanj's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I know exactly how your feeling. Mainly when I travel I try and bring my own food along with me, but when staying in a hotel for a couple days and there is no refrigerator it's almost impossible. I hate going to my boyfriends family functions because his family doesn't understand and when I do bring my own food and prepare and cook it I almost always get...
