Awesome! I'm glad you have found foods to eat. Is there a website you can suggest where I can find a list of foods to eat? Thanks!

Enjoy! I'm sure you'll love it. It's a beautiful country.

I've been to Japan, Korea, and China. And out of these three, personally, I think Japan and China would be he hardest because they seem to add soy sauce to so many different things. However, wheat can sneak in a lot of foods. A lot of foreigners go to Japan and I'm sure there has been at least one with Celiacs, so just do some research. I lived in Korea for...

I think it depends on where you're traveling to. If you're traveling to more developed countries, then I don't see that as a problem. I would bring essentials but try to then stay in hostels where they have kitchens you can use, or stay anywhere where you could buy food there and cook. However, in certain places, I think a large suitcase would be impossible...

My friend's bar is going to make my cider green. I think most would be willing to accommodate. After all, Magners is Irish. You could call first, just so you won't have to hear a no after you arrive.

I was also a vegetarian before diagnosed. While I'm still trying my hardest not to eat meat, I do struggle. How did you start eating meat again? It makes me feel bloated and I get painfully constipated. Thanks for the encouragement about traveling btw. I can't wait to hit the road again!

Yes, both you and I need to find a way to do this. I'm simply going to have to change how I travel. Instead of restaurants, I'll just bring my own stove everywhere and cook my own food that I buy there. I can't risk eating out at restaurants, even when they are 'gluten free' I still sometimes get sick. And if I get sick while traveling, the entire trip could...

I am a backpacker. I have traveled to 29 countries and lived in five. It's my passion, my love. I was just diagnosed in the U.S. not too long ago and when I imagine going off on a trip, to be honest I get a bit sad. I am also very sensitive and I'm heartbroken that maybe I can no longer hitch-hike across Central Asia, which was my next area of the world to...

Thanks for the responses. Lady Eowyn, I had never thought that my celiacs triggered an eating disorder. It's hard to look back objectively, because now that I've been diagnosed it's easy for me to say, "Oh that must have been because of gluten" but to be honest, I could see where my ed perhaps simply made my celiacs more apparent? I'm newly diagnosed, so...

Hello, Sorry if this is a repeat. I looked online but I only found things from 2008 or 2009 and I wanted to get some fresh insight. This is a somewhat personal story for me, so when responding please try to keep that in mind. I do welcome everyone's opinion though. And sorry for the length. My story in short is that I went to college when...

What about other sources of caffeine? Do they make you sick too?

Hello! I am newly diagnosed, so I'm sure others can give you much better advice but I just wanted to say how I don't think your primary focus should be your weight right now. It is something important that you should monitor, but right now you need to focus on healing and making sure you're the best you can be for your children. I think your weight...

Kittty, I didn't lose all control, don't worry. But it is fun to drink and let loose every once in a while. I suppose my question was this. Before I went to sleep, I had the clarity to go home, set my alarm, get into my night clothes, and so forth and I did all those things without having to think. I'm wondering if one day I'll not eat gluten accidently...

Haha, if only you guys knew me. I rarely get really drunk, I only drink about twice a month. But yes, I guess when I go out and party I'll have to be more careful. Thanks!

I was diagnosed with Celiacs about five months ago, this will be important to remember for later. After experiencing strange and painful symptoms for over two years and then suffering terribly every day for about another two I have finally found the key to staying healthy, happy, and strong....not eating gluten. I'm finally free. However, apparently the...
