ARCHIVED Friends Eating My Food?
loco-ladi replied to frogsrme1717's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff

This will do 2 things...... 1 shows them its not easy finding something you can eat safely when they look. 2 Shows the how pricey it will be WHEN they find something you can... -

loco-ladi replied to Lisa16's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I have the following to offer.... In my pre-gluten-free days I used a bread machine and didnt like the recipes, not to mention it was a real pain to get out of the machine...

After figuring out myself that celiac disease was a "very possible" issue and learning the symptoms, I figure I have been misdx'ed for about half my life... this could have been caught when I was a teen if not sooner.

ARCHIVED Are These Common Symptoms? How Long To Resolve
loco-ladi replied to chlobo's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
The "healing time" is very hard to narrow down.... every one of us has a different amount of damage done and each of us heals differently than others... I do believe however that children will heal quite quickly for a couple of reasons.... 1) they are still growing 2) they dont have 40 years of damage to heal -

You may want to check out a problem called RLS (restless leg syndrome) I have a minor case of it but it has decreased in severity with the gluten-free diet.... go figure!
