    Nothing new that I can think of. (I'll probably start keeping a journal again to make sure) I have been thinking it is gluten, because it(the swelling), feeling very lethargic, and a sharp headache are what I have contributed to how I feel if I get glutened. (Outside of that, I'm told I'm a pretty silent celiac). My face used to basically always look...

    Oh my, I would have to say that that is a pretty good description of what I can look like at times. But for me, it is even cross contamination it seems.

    Just seeing if I'm alone in this. After an accidental gluten ingestion, my face, mainly my cheeks, really bloat. It is to the point that I look like a different person/have gained 20lbs. I'm just wondering if this is true for anyone else out there? If so, any good remedies besides waiting? Also when I get glutened, I have rosacea like outbreaks. All...

    Hello all! So i have been gluten free for about four weeks now and I have a few questions. I have managed to only Gluten myself about three times. When I do eat gluten, I notice that: 1. Sharp Headache 2. Extreme Hunger for the rest of the day sometimes two days. I could literally eat the fridge. It's like nothing I eat makes me feel full. 3...

    Well, I hardly believe they have to be responsible for our well being, but on the other hand I can't understand why it is so hard for them to ask the cook if they add wheat to any of their dishes. I'm talking about a mom and pop restaurant, not a chain restaurant where no one know whats really in anything. I chose a Mexican reason solely because this one...

    So it begins, learning how to eat out. So the other day I went to this local Mexican restaurant that I LOVE. So I, before becoming a Celiac, always got a platter of a shredded Beef Burrito, Mexican rice, re-fried beans, and, of course, chips and salsa. I went their last night and had a talk with the server asking her to talk to the cook to see...

    That's a great idea! Will have to keep that in mind next time I hit the store. Ya those gluten-free breadcrumbs are pricey and not really all that good in my opinion. Thanks for the tips -annajazz

    O.O That is such a great idea! Will definitely try this. Thanks for the tip! -anna

    Hello Everyone! I will admit that before becoming a Celiac (about two weeks ago) I loved everything breaded! Bread Crumbs are always present in a abundance in my kitchen....now.....not so much. I went to a couple of my local grocery stores looking for a good sub. Now I have given rice flour a try, but I want that crunch/ texture of bread crumbs...

    Thanks! These links have been very helpful Ya I have been trying to stick to foods that just naturally do not have gluten in them. It is a lot easier and cheaper then trying to substitute gluten free things for those that have gluten(aka pasta etcc..) I have been doing very well this past week. All of you guys on here have been extremely...

    Oh wow, I didn't even think about the amount of contamination in a pizza place. Thanks for the tip, I shall have to make sure to ask about that before I eat there. Awww man Thanks for the tip on corn starch (I'm allergic to corn). oh well. Hmmm the Canyon Bakehouse looks awesome, I'll have to check that out. I love the nutty bits, nothing like a good...

    Hi! Thanks so much for replying! I have a similar oral allergy to tomatoes. Nice to know I a not the only one facing multi-food/gluten allergies etc... I am definitely going to look into Udi's, they sound fantastic. Thanks for the link Glad to know that Progresso has gluten free soups I love soup! I have found that the more research that...

    Hi! Oh that would be awesome....hhmmm lets see. Intolerances: Pork, High lactose (a.k.a I can have skim milk, but 2% is a no no), caffeine, chocolate, cream cheese, and corn. Allergies: Latex, avocados, kiwi, chestnuts, melons, tomatoes, lemon, and lime. Thank you for the link!

    I find that this diagnosis is, in turn, both a blessing and a hindrance. We all know that one person who seems to be virtually allergic to everything, well, I am that person. I have an allergy list that is a mile long and all my friends think they are going to kill me when I come over for dinner. I have never been able to loose much weight, even though...
