    I think it's possible, but many people who are allergic to cow milk have reactions to goat milk also. I can't tolerate cow's milk products except for very small amounts of butter occasionally, but I can handle small amounts of raw goat cheese. I avoided ALL dairy products "like the plague" for about 8 years before trying to add anything back. I have tried...

    Bean flours smell and taste gross until they are baked. Then, as long as they aren't too big a percentage of the flour, their yucky smell/taste goes away. My mom said that the soy flour she used for something smelled horrible too while it was baking. My son didn't like the taste of the bread either. I sometimes put some garbanzo flour in my chocolate...

    LOL - I DID gain back the two pounds! But through very hard workouts and self-control the past 2 days I've lost them again. I'm down 11 pounds now from when we first started this thread. Only 13 more to go to get to my big goal. Of course, I'll still be a little overweight when I get there, but it's a big goal for me. Interesting about the vitamin...

    There's also a brand called "Cerone Cones". I don't have the package anymore, so I can't get all the info for you. They're expensive, but really good. I got them at a health food store.

    I spent a year eating only fish (salmon, tuna, halibut, cod - no shellfish), rice (rice cakes and rice milk too), sunflower seeds, most vegetables (no nightshades), sweet potatoes and most fruits. I think I ate corn 3-4 times during that year. After a year, I was feeling so much better that I decided to add things back. I started with things like bananas...

    I've never eaten out a lot either. I prefer to cook healthy meals - even before having to change my diet. Now I pretty much only eat out at the salad bar at our health food store. I was glutened 2 out of the last 3 times I ate at a restaurant, so I'm a bit hesitant. I also don't like eating pre-packaged food, so I've never been a fan of things like frozen...

    How do you do that? It sounds interesting.

    Soyco Foods makes a DF/gluten-free/SF alternative that works okay if there are a lot of seasonings. It's best to use it when you can let the flavors blend for several hours.

    I use Umboshi vinegar - it's really salty - and then add toasted sesame oil, ginger and garlic for flavor and leave soy out of all my stir-fries and Asian dishes. I've been off soy for 11 years and don't miss it any more.

    I've been gluten-free for quite a while now and my vitamin D levels were still almost non-existant a couple of months ago. My naturopath put me on 2000 IU's of vit. D a day and will test me again after 3 months. I'm taking 1000 IU's of Thorn Laboratories and 1000 IU's of Carlson (taken from fish oil) each day. I'm hoping my skin will improve - I have bad...

    Missy's mom made a good suggestion that I'll second. Spectrum makes a great non-hydrogenated shortening that works well in baking. We can't/won't eat Crisco or any margarine and I won't eat hydrogenated oils. Try the Spectrum - it might be the perfect solution for you.

    Welcome back, Autumn! I thought you'd abandoned us. Sorry you're still having tummy trouble. Can you eat rice? I'd get D if I only ate fruits and vegies - I need something easier to digest like some rice or potatoes to round out my diet. Now where's Shannon? Haven't seen her for a while. And where are all of our other girls? WE MISS YOU! Diana...

    Has your doctor done a simple urine test for protein? I had something similar and it turned out to be a kidney disease, even though my kidney function was 100%. I'll spare you all the details, but it's a simple test for your doctor to do. I would at least want to rule this out if I were you. I had problems with salt too. (I'm fine now and can eat salt...

    I use Lundberg Farms brown rice flour. I buy it in 25 lb sacks from my health food store and get a discount.

    I did have mold on my Ener-G bread once. I think there was a hole in the package. I called the company and they sent me a new loaf. I've never had another problem and have been buying it for almost 11 years.

    Hi Everyone! Cathy - nice to see you back. Hope we can encourage you to keep up the good work. Interesting about all the rain. Deb - sorry to hear about another death in your family. Hope your trip went well. Basketball season ended last night with a win! We came in 3rd place and played well. The tournament was a great experience for all my...

    I won't tell! Please enjoy them for me. I'm not eating chocolate until Easter and those brownies looked awfully good when I was cutting them up this morning. There are still a few in the pan and I'm just trying to stay out of the kitchen to avoid temptation. PLEASE let me know if they turn out for you. I've been making them with carob for years and just...

    Add me to the list of people who agree with all of this. "A little dirt never hurt" is what we were taught when I was growing up. My house is "clean" but not overboard - I'm more afraid of chemicals than a few germs. Carla - my 9 year old is doing his state report on Ohio. He likes Ohio State and was thrilled to find out that the Football Hall of Fame...

    Make an ice cream "cake" by mixing in some gluten-free cookie crumbs or making a layer of crumbs on top - kind of like a Dairy Queen cake. It is hard on that first birthday when you just want to have someone else take charge and make you feel special. I think we can all understand that. Couldn't your co-workers bring in a large tub of ice cream and...

    Would you like a recipe for dairy-free, egg-free, soy-free brownies? (gluten-free of course, too.) I just made them last night for my daughter to take to school. I'm off chocolate, but my kids assured me that they're delicious. I usually make them out of carob, but my daughter wanted chocolate for school.
  22. lonewolf
    Just wanted to chime in with my agreement. Cutting out ALL dairy, corn and soy, possibly eggs too, is a good way to start. It might seem like a hassle, but it's a lot better than feeling crummy.
  23. lonewolf
    I like the Imagine Foods tomato soup too. It's dairy-free too, which is good for us. I think it's a little too rich, so I add some water. My daughter likes to add some milk.

    Hi Vincent, I'm glad to see you back! Great to hear that your little guy is doing so well, too. Sorry about the bumpy road you've been on, but it looks like it's working out for the best in the long run. Hope you stick around - we've missed you here. Hopefully we can be some support too.

    Lisa, I see that you have several food intolerances in addition to gluten. Are you completely off dairy, eggs, soy and the nightshade vegetables? I had horrible arthritis at age 32, which was still way too young and I went off all of those foods (and avoided red meat too), heck I basically ate fish, rice, some fruits and some vegetables and sunflower seeds...
