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...

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...

ARCHIVED Good Friend's Wedding Menu...help?
pinky replied to Meemsy's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
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.... -
ARCHIVED Good Friend's Wedding Menu...help?
pinky replied to Meemsy's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
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... -
ARCHIVED Opinion On Joan's gluten-free Great Bakes
pinky replied to a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
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. -
ARCHIVED Confused?
pinky replied to simplicity66's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
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! -
ARCHIVED Is A Follow-up Endoscopy Needed 6 Months After Initial Diagnosis?
pinky replied to mellamella's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
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!)
-
did you go to dos caminos? what were you able to order???
-
the problem with the salads is the chicken has wheat in it. also, the bacon bits' smoke flavoring may contain gluten. the nuts in the fruit and nuts salad have gluten. the dressings are actually all fine-- no gluten.

ARCHIVED Starbucks Gluten-free Cookie?
pinky replied to MySuicidalTurtle's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
has anyone found this gluten-free whoopie pie thing in any starbucks in nyc? i have been searching when i happen to pass a starbucks but haven't found it. and i don't care if it has over 400 calories one little bit! ha! -
I have tried a bunch of the cupcakes at babycakes, and I like them. My favorites (in order of preference) are the vanilla w/vanilla frosting, the banana, and the carrot cake ones. I don't really like the chocolate cake ones or the chocolate frosting-- they takes too bitter and cocoa-y to me. they are very pretty, nice cupcakes though. enjoy!

babycakes is a bakery in nyc... i tried their cupcakes. in general, i found the texture of the cake part to be quite good-- much less dense than a lot of gluten-free cakes. better than happy happy happy (which closed down). the frosting, however, was not very good. these cupcakes could be awesome w/this cake and magnolia/buttercup bakery frosting! of...
