so sorry i didn't post it this morning so i could have stuck you with about 500 extra calories! :-) if you have time to ask Matt or whomever about the gluten-free-safeness of other items, please post!

free foods is a new organic take-out restaurant place in midtown-- 45th st. btwn 5th and 6th. i noticed yesterday that they have not one but THREE different gluten-free baked goods-- a chocolate cake, a brownie, and a chocolate-marzipan thing! i emailed them (through website www.freefoodsnyc.com) to find out what else they have that's gluten free, but...

Has anyone tried this? Open Original Shared Link

i just found out that i have this too. i had a gastric emptying study due to my symptom complaints (bloating, stomachaches, extreme feelings of fullness). has there been any studies to show association btwn celiac and this disease? i can only find the association to diabetes...

okay, i just lost it and ate 3 huge slices of regular pizza at work. it started with picking the toppings off, then the cheese, then i just LOST it. does this happen to anyone else??? it also happened to me the other day when we had cupcakes at work-- couldn't resist the frosting, before i knew it was binging on the whole lot............ help?

i am a runner and get horrible stomach pain if i run after i've eaten really ANYTHING in the last several hours. i try to exercise first thing in the morning, before breakfast, and that seems to do the trick. i am running my first half marathon on sunday though, so i'm going to try to have a protein bar (or half of one at least) before and cross my fingers...

nope. sometimes they are; sometimes they are not. i think they put wheat starch in there.

i just accidentally glutened myself eating sprinkles with my Carvel ice cream (at work bday party). What can I do??????

be jealous of this-- after spending over $1000 on a plane ticket to get to this town in the middle of nowhere in italy for 4 days, the bride told me, when i asked her about food, that "we aren't catering for any special meals-- including vegetarians-- except for mine of course!" and this was after telling me about the shoes she is having custom made....

i have been to a zillion weddings, and, when it is a friend of mine, i always ask about this. (most people WANT their guests to get to eat, esp as they are paying a lot of $$ to provide food for you whether you want it or not!) generally, i ask (or email) and say that i am SO excited for the wedding, and i'm perfectly happy to bring my own food, but remind...

this is re: the calorie content-- i don't know about joan's, but, in general (unfortunately), gluten-free versions of "normal" stuff tends to be more caloric.

am dying to go!

Crohn's is associated with celiac, so he may think you have both. Or he may think you just have Crohn's now since you are not responding well to going gluten-free. The best way to figure out is to ASK the doctor!

my doctor had me do a follow-up endoscopy after 1 year to see if the gluten-free diet was working. then blood work also every year, but only the one endoscopy.

kaiti, if you look on the website at the ingredients, there is actually wheat in the chicken. (which is grody anyway!)
