    Happy birthday and may God bless you today!

    I JUST read something about this....and now I can't remember where. I think it was in the GIG Quarterly magazine (put out by the Gluten Intolerance Group). I don't know if you can call them (or go to their website, www.gluten.net, and request a copy). I have a yearly membership, so I got it in the mail. Anyway, if you are eating gluten-free pancakes,...

    ARCHIVED Pf Changs?

    tiffjake replied to ebrbetty's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants

    I LOVE PF Changs! I get the Chang's Spicey Chicken with NO Chili paste and no chili flakes (ie-no spice) and it is GOOD!

    We went for a week 2 years ago. We ate at the Outback, PF Changs, Emeril New Orleans Fish House, Maggianos, and a Wolfgang Pucks place. I was very careful and talked to the manager everywhere we went. It was GREAT!

    ARCHIVED Taco Bell

    tiffjake replied to toddzgrrl02's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants

    I eat at Taco Bell every now and then. I get the tosada or the zesty chicken border bowl with no red strips and no dressing. This is from their website: Suggestions for Wheat and Gluten Sensitive Individuals - Tostada - Chicken Fiesta Taco Salad (order without the shell and without the Red Strips) - Chicken Express Taco Salad (order Chicken instead...

    ARCHIVED Chuy's Tex-mex

    tiffjake replied to zkat's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants

    Yeah, it was really cool to go there and order ANYTHING and know that it was gluten-free because the whole place is ONLY gluten-free! Very Cool! (Talking about Little Aussie Bakery, NOT Chuys!)

    I love the Changs Spicey Chicken, but I order it without the Chili Paste, because I don't really like the spice, just the fried-like chicken, and the onion flavor left when there is no chili paste

    We had an Accent and we really liked it. We named it Zippy because it could whip right into small parking spots. That was a great car. We bought it for 6300 almost new, and sold it for 6000 about 6 mos later!

    Hey dbmamaz, My A.L.C.A.T. test had some funky results too. I called and ask them about the odd results. My top three reactions were to strawberries, sweet potatoes, and cauliflower. I love strawberries and sweet potatoes, but I hate c-flower. I did what they suggested, and cut out all of the foods (including gluten and gliadin-both in the yellow range...

    Hey dbmamaz, I am a big fan of the A.L.C.A.T. test, and I was around when someone (who may or may not have been directly connected to the company) spammed the message board with ads. It was pretty ugly. Scott replaced the word with lame advertisment because back then, it really was. I even called A.L.C.A.T. and told them that if they were behind the...

    ARCHIVED Chuy's Tex-mex

    tiffjake replied to zkat's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants

    Hey Jazmine, I think these are different places. The Chuy's in Texas are only in Texas. There are only three locations, and they are a local thing. That sounds like a different chain, with the same name though. Stinks though, I wish there were Chuy's (like in Austin) everywhere!!!

    I really think you are right. I am going sugar free after new years. I can tell a HUGE difference when I eat a high carb meal and when I don't....

    I just wanted to add to the great responses. I have had terrible trouble talking to my family about going gluten-free (and getting tested for Celiac Disease). I have basically ruined my relationship with my father. I am so worried about them and their health (like my sister, who is PREGNANT!!!) but they brush me off. My uncle was diagnosed 7 years ago...

    Ditto. You just have to call your insurance company and request your EOB statement. But I have BC/BS (but they go by state, like BC/BS of California, or BC/BS of Virginia) and I know that they don't cover food...they don't cover much, like lab work, and there is a copay on x-rays (for my plan anyway)..... And keep in mind that you might have to pay a...
  15. tiffjake
    I don't think they will pay for any food...but you would have to call them and check your exact plan and request your EOB (explaination of benefits) statement. And I don't know about the tax bread. I have heard about it, but you would have to itemize your taxes, keep amazing records, and be really careful with the IRS rules. So I just don't bother......

    I am not, and I didn't say that I was. And I am not sure that they benefit (?) at all, but it is easier for me, and since I was told that it was ok with this brand, I don't worry about it. But that is like asking if I benefit from eating gluten-free chocolate. No, I don't benefit really, but it is ok, so I do. I am sure some people see harm in it, with...

    I don't believe that I have, here, or anywhere else. I tell people to do what their Dr suggested they do, and for me, that was to take them out weekly to clean them. I never suggested anyone wear them for 6 weeks. I simply said that I had, in the past, forgot to take them out, and wore them for longer than the 30 days suggested by the contact lens company...

    Hey Judy! Happy Birthday! Been missing you!!! My new job is keeping me soooo busy!!!! I hardly have time to check in here...

    I was on meds for depression and anxiety before going gluten-free. It is amazing just how many things are tied to nutrition and food! I can actually see my depression as a sign of a glutening now, and it lasts about 3 days, and then I am fine. It is really weird.
  20. tiffjake
    Wow slee!! I don't have kids yet, so I can't imagine what that was like to go through, but I do have some ideas for food. EnerG make some real junk, but they also make some good stuff, like their crackers. They are the closest thing to a saltine I have ever had gluten-free! And Ian's makes mini gluten-free chocolate chip cookie buttons and cinnamon...

    I added my thoughts into the quote, after your questions.

    ARCHIVED Recommend A Doctor In You State

    tiffjake replied to a topic in Doctors

    I haven't seen her personally, but she works with the local support group: Dr. Iqbal in Longmont, CO

    Me too, love this stuff!

    I spoke with my doc today (as I actually needed a new eye exam to renew my contacts Rx) and he agreed that wearing contacts at night can increase the changes of an eye infection, but that these contacts are high oxygen silicone-based contacts, and that is why they are approved for night wear. While they need to be removed to be cleaned, they are not dangerous...

    I didnt reply sooner because I didnt know what "TNT" meant....but I have the same recipe as LoriC and I made it in a ring like Rachel Ray and gave them out for Christmas gifts! Very easy and tasty!
