Kristren, I can relate to how you feel. I have been gluten free for 11 mths. now. I cannot say that I feel any better yet. Mostly I feel worse because my diet is not healthy. I never was never interested in learning to cook when I was growing up. Now, it is a real hinderance to me. I was use to a life of popping , Lean Cuisine, or Healthy Choice into...

I have been looking for a crack also. I am eating Blue Diamond also, but do not really like them. I really miss my Ritz.. Could someone tell where I could purchase Glutino. I do not have acess to any health food stores where I live and I live on disability and food stamps so my income is limited. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, -
ARCHIVED Looking For Chapstick?
2tired posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I was diagnosed with Cealiac in Nov. 05. I noticed that prior to being diagnosed everytime I used any type of chapstick that my lips felt like they were on fire. I never could figre out why. Now that I have been diagnsed with Celiac I am pretty certain that must be why. I am wondering if someone can tell me where I can purchase chapstick that is gluten... -

I have been gluten free for 9 mths. and I have lost 50 lbs. I don't know where it will stop. I am trying to eat as much as possible, but food makes me sick. I have trouble getting it down. I feel worse now that I did before going gluten free. -
ARCHIVED Feeling Bummed About My Ever-narrowing Diet.
2tired replied to frenchiemama's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Carolyn, I understand exactly how you feel. I miss being able to eat out once in a while. I never learned how to cook, so that is a real problem for me. I am fortunate that I only have to deal with gluten and wheat. Since going gluten free, I have lost 50 lbs. and I am in a downward spiral that I cannot seem to get a handle on. I have been gluten free... -
Thanks for all of your ideas. I do not have a Costco where I live, and there is only one health food store, and it does not have much to offer. I will try some of the suggestions that you offered

ARCHIVED Need Help Making Bread!
2tired replied to 2tired's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Can you bake it in a bread maker? Thanks! -
I so far don't have very many problems with my stomach. The only problems I have are that since I have lost so much weight, I have trouble getting food to go down, or just not getting it to go down at all. It is like when I was anorexic, but I am definitely not anorexic. I am fighting as hard as I can to keep weight on. I eat alot of potatoes and rice...

ARCHIVED Need Help Making Bread!
2tired replied to 2tired's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Could you tell me where you got the Bob's Red Mill gluten free bread mix? Thanks. -
. The only foods that I have eliminated from my diet are gluten and wheat. I don't have a problem with any other foods. It took me 2 yrs. to recover from anorexia. I am on disability for major depression. I have suffered from it for 34 yrs. the other health problems are thyroid, sjrogrens syndrome, chronic fatigue, arthritis, bipolar disorder.

I do not know how to cook, but a friend of mine has a bread maker that was only used once and she is giving it to me. What I need to know is a recipe for just plain gluten free wheat free bread. There may be one on the website, but I have not found one. If someone could help me out I would appreciate it. Also I might need more than than just the ingredients...

I have been on a downward spiral since I was diagnosed with Celiac in Nov. 05. I was 30 lbs. overweight and was aggressively working on losing the weight at the time I was diagnosed. Once I went on the gluten-free/wf diet, immediately started dropping weight. To date, I have lost 50 lbs. I cannot seem to find enough foods that are gluten-free. One problem...

Thanks everyone for your replies. They have been helpful. I can tolerate dairy. I have a milkshake everyday and that helps some, but it gets old. I eat canned potatoes that are diced which are o.k. I eat rice and tomatoes some. I am going to have to try the rice with the cheddar cheese. I really miss my mac and cheese. The thing I miss the most is...

I was diagnosed with Celiac last Nov. Since then as of today I have lost 50 lbs. I am only 5'1" and am beginning to look anorexic. People are telling me that I am to skinny. I have always been a picky eater and having to cut out all gluten and wheat has really made it rough on me. I am trying to eat all that I can, but my stomach has grown up. Also...

ARCHIVED Dear Pizza Hut.....i Hate You........
2tired replied to angel-jd1's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I never thought that I would see the day that I craved bread, but I actually crave it now more than I do chocolate. I would like to have some real crackers also. Those rice things just don't get it for me. -
I was taking 50.000 iu of Vitamin D weekly in the beginning, but I am down to once a month. According to my dr. I may have to take it for the rest of my life.

I was wondering if any of you have the Gluten Free Restaurant Guide and if you have found it to be helpful to you. I am trying to conquer the problem about eating out and not getting very far. Would appreciate any help you good give. Thanks.

Why is the book not helpful. I am not understanding all of this since I am new to it all. I ordered the book and the cards. I guess I should have waited until I got some feedback. Thanks.

I was wondering if anyone has used the Truimph Dining Cards? I was also wondering if they listed any american restaurants and if you could remember any of them. I am getting tired of not being able to eat out anymore. I am also tired of eating the same old foods over and over again. Basically I am tired of celiacs. I have been gluten-free for 4 mths...

Can I get in on this whole hate thing? I hate that Celiac was ever created. I hate that I cannot go out to eat like normal people. I hate that there is not a good health food store where I live. I hate that I do not know how to cook. I hate that I cannot have the foods back that I like to eat. I hate that I spend all of my time in the grocery store...

ARCHIVED Gluten Free Brand Cereal
2tired replied to 2tired's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Thanks for your replies. I live in the US. I live in a small town and there are not any health food stores. Everything is brand name food. It really sucks, and I am really tired of this diet. -
ARCHIVED Gluten Free Brand Cereal
2tired posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
My brother and I both have Celiacs. We live in a small town where there is not a health food store. I cannot afford to order foods online. I was wondering if anyone knew of a cereal that is brand name that is gluten-free? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks -
My vitamin D level has been way too low for almost a year now. I wasn't diagnosed with Celiacs until Nov. 05. I have been on 50,000 units of Vit. D weekly until this mth and my dr. dropped it to once mthly. My body is still not absorbing it. My dr. is still not sure what to do.

Chelsea, You just made my world a whole lot bigger. Thanks. -
I was wondering if whey is considered the same as wheat? Is it allowed or not? I have been gluten-free for a month and a half and am not completely sure of foods yet. Thanks.
