  4. terri calm down--otay---weight watchers is probably the best diet to follow in all the diets you will ever find--you have lost 57# with weight watchers, you dont have to start eating differently, just eliminate the gluten--so much of the food out there is gluten-free, it just takes some detective work to find it all ---i have been gluten-free for over ...
  5. well red--much of what you say does make sense and i have been following these post all along--my guestion is----MSG, is it always listed in ingredients or does it play peekaboo just as gluten does--i know that most of your chinese food in restaurants has MSG and for years i have heard people say they cant have MSG--so, please give us an idea--at least the...

  7. you're right christi--it is in the air--i live in the country and farms can be a big problem--not only with wheat, but for me it's the dust, the mold when it rains, i live in a low area, near a river--when they are baling hay and straw--ewwwwwwwww--many of us older celiacs remember the show, "Green Acres" well, country living is no longer the life for me...
  8. that's the one thing we need to all remember--WE ARE NOT ON A DIET--we are eating or not eating the foods that will make us healthy and keep us healthy it's not a diet, it's a lifestyle--when people are not understanding my explaination, i tell them its like being diabetic, only they can have a little sugar and we cannot have any wheat, rye, barley, or...

  12. agree totally--going gluten free can not hurt you and --i only wish i had known about gluten years ago when i was being told IBS, spastic colon, and before i started having panic attacks and all those other problems that brought me down --gluten-free has been a life saver for me --i can actually plan to go somewhere now and not have to worry that i will...
  13. i hope the dietician can help you, but dont be disappointed if she or he doesnt--many in the health field are not as into certain diets as they should be--now if you were meeting with my sister, a celiac dietician, you would learn so much--there was a post in here about a dietician who told the celiac that a little crumb wont hurt--and as everyone tells you...

  15. ps---we cant look at gluten-free as a life sentence--its---WOW, I HAVE MY LIFE BACK--YEHA-------deb
  16. i tell people that i am not on a diet--it's a way of life and gluten-free is a way of life--when you are diabetic and have to change the way you eat, its not called a diet--same thing--its the way we live, no ifs, ands, or buts--i tell people i do not have a wheat allergy, but that i can not tolerate any wheat in my system and then i add or barley, rye, and...

  18. welcome susan------your story sounds so much like so many others of us--i too was told IBS, spastic colin and the best one--too much stress and to keep the stress away only an idiot would say something that stupid-----anyways--i went almost 20 years before finding out about celiacs and i do not need a doctor to tell me that gluten is my problem and a gluten...
