    We'll be leaving Friday for a week at the beach!!!!! Does anyone have any ideas of what I should pack, food wise? The island has grocery stores, but I have no idea if they have any gluten-free products. I was thinking about making some cocoa pebble treats (like rice krispie treats) and some peanut butter cookies to have in the car for snacks....

    Well, I was paying bills today....worrying far more about the finances then the mechanical method of actually paying the bills. I licked 2 envelopes before I relized what I was ding! I'm hoping that they won't make me sick! I'm already drinking water just in case!!!! So your not at all alone!!!!! Lollie

    Lynn- The white squash has the same flowers as the others. My kids love squash, eggplant, really any vegie!!!! But, I never acted like there was anything else! Plus, going and picking it, makes a difference! They love to help in the kitchen, I think kids really get into being able to make their own food. Then they eat better too!!! I will post pics...

    Lynne- I'll be happy to share what ever I can with you! I use my antique Better Homes and Gardens, red check, cook book. I also have a small collection of antique cookbooks that date back to the World Wars. Man they are really cool!!! They all these tips for things you would never think of now! I haven't said anything about my garden! We expanded...

    Jen- I would love to pick strawberries! I don't have anything like that around here. We do go in the early summer and pick blueberries and blackberries! I did try making jam out of them, but I didn't care for it much! DH did!!!!!! He'll eat just about anything I make! Chrissy- No I haven't ever made it in a slow cooker! That does sound easy....

    ARCHIVED Pain Meds?

    Lollie replied to ebrbetty's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    I didn't think that Levsin helped me at all. I now take Flexiril, it's a muscle relaxer. It helps me alot. I think most of my problem is a tightening and spasms of the stomach and intestines. Anyway- it works for me! Good Luck- Lollie

    i feel your pain 9 about the Krispie Kreme) I think they must have big fans that pump that smell out to get us to want to go get one. I love chocolate cake too. I make the Namste cake---It's really good. I put my grandma's recipe for fudge frosting on the top! It is excellent, if I don't say so myself! Lollie

    I forgot that I made homemade apple butter and put it up last year! My husband and kids ate it all within a couple of days. Then I made pear butter- same deal!!!! This year I'll have to buy even more produce so i can have some!!!!! Lollie

    Welcome to the board!!!! I know that fatigue is definantly a symptom of all this! It isn't unusual to be very tired! There is a chance your kids have it, it is genetic. As far as the allergies and asthma- really don't know if this will help those or not. But, I wouldn't be surprised if you did get some releif! Again welcome to the board! Ask...

    Welcome to the board!!!!Fellow Texan!!!!! Where are you at? I'm in Dallas. Now for the diet, you can get the forbidden foods list from this site over on the menu- I think it's under site index... Any way it's a list of things we can't have, and the names of things that contain gluten in a hidden fashion! There was already good advice about the diet...

    I have prayers of peace and hope going out to all of you! I'm sorry that so many have gone through so much because of this disease. I'm in complete agreement with ChelsE, I thank God daily that He let my husband find out about this disease, before it was able to do the lasting harm that so many of you endure. My complaints seem so minor compared with...

    Wow- I'm so sorry you had such a terrible experience. I have only been gluten free for 4 months. My reactions are the same as what you have described. I recently did something wrong, still trying to figure out what I did wrong. I woke up at 1 in the morning, with stomache cramps and severe nausea. I sweated with the pain. It felt like I was being stabbed...

    I guess I just over looked this great thread!!!! I too, am a crafter. I love scrapbooking, sewing, jewlry making.....but especially pottery!!!! Oh yes, and canning! I processed 12 jars of peaches last year and ate them over the winter!!!! This year we expanded the vegie garden so I'm hoping to get to put up some vegies too! I would so love to meet...

    I'm with Nini- Krispy Kreme, croissants, and Einsteins Bagels!!!! And I really miss cholcolate malts and malted milk balls! I haven't given in or anything, but man, I do covet them. Especially when my kids have them and I can smell them..... lollie

    Thanks Patti! I guess it must be the soy. I can't normally eat it, or if I do just every once in a while. It makes sense that it would build up in time. Man that just sucks, because the vitamins did help my energy level. But, believe me, they just aren't worth it. Thanks again! Lollie
  18. Lollie
    Sure Patti. They are Coenayme B Food Complex, by New Chapter Organics. On the ingredients, the only thing that I think might be a factor is the organic milled soy. But, is it possible to feel so good at first and then a week later finally have this kind of horrible reaction? I am still feeling pretty bad. I am very weak now. And the brain fog is ridiculous...

    I've got a question. I started taking a B vitamin complex with probiotics last week. I posted that the results had been extremely positive. I have taken the one vitamin daily since. I have been queezy at night for about a week. I also have a cold/allergies that have my sinus in fits. Yesterday, I felt great, went to bed at a normal time. But my stomach...

My suggestions are: take a cooler, yogurt, cheese, corn tortillas, lunch meat-you can make a quick roll up sandwich that way Lara bars Nut thins if you have time make a pan of brownies nuts That's all I can think of, everyone else had excellent...

    I want to add my feelings! I was so sick for the past few years. Sick to the point of thinking I was definantly going to die young. I didn't know what to do. I didn't retain any of my food for more then 30 minutes....We all know the drill, but that was before I knew anything about Celiac. For the first time in my adult life, I feel like I'm going...

    Congratulations!!!!!! I just love weddings! I had fruit, vegies and finger sandwiches for the food at my wedding. We had it at 8pm so it wasn't like we had to feed everybody dinner. And as for the cake, I would try the gluten free options. Give them a try and see what you like. I love the idea that jkmunchkin had about having the layer that was...
  24. Lollie
    I agree! And welcome! I would add a few things to the list of bland food to start with. Try fresh fruit and veggies, plain organic meat, rice, and dairy like yougurt and cheese. If you csn tolerate dairy, not every one can. It will get better it just takes time! Right now you just have tofocus on learning how to be truly gluten free, and healing! ...

    I just use a white corn tortilla instead. I really like the flavor anyway! I get mine right at the regular grocers. They just have corn, lime, and salt! And they say gluten free right on them. Oh, and I like the white better then the yellow! lollie
