Going gluten-free! My story...

Yay Bread!

My mom and I were going to try to make a gluten-free potato bread, but when I went to Meijer to go get the stuff to make it (xanthan gum is expensive!) I found that they sell a lot of gluten-free stuff! One golden find was Open Original Shared Link. I may buy a case online, since one box was $5.49 at Meijer. All of the ENER-G rice bread went out to the birds and squirrels...though most of it was still out on the lawn when when we left! It'll be interesting to see if it's still there.   My gran

Wanna Chat?

I'm going to be at work until 8pm Eastern tonight (I live in Michigan). I often work form 2p-5p, sometimes I'm on later until 8p, sometime I get on earlier...   But, if anyone has any of the messengers... AIM: alleightcrayons Yahoo!: threeringfilly

The Constant Search For Bread

I'm not buying online....yet. The girls at work (one with Celiac, another with a severe wheat allergy) have said that there's all kinds of places in the area that sell gluten-free foods, so I'll exhaust my local options before going online.   I toasted the Ener-G brown rice bread this morning, and ate that with some peanut butter and jelly. It was slightly better...only slightly. I'd say it was more bland, and it seemed to shrink. So, it was filling, but tasted like cardboard. Lunch was a Trad

Grocery Shopping As A gluten-free Dieter - The Bread Fiasco

I should have paid closer attention to posts on the message boards. Apparently, the Kroger that does sell bread by my boyfriend's house sells the Ener-G brand and nothing else. I was craving a peanut butter and jelly sandwich last night (something which I used to absolutely hate, but now crave quite regularly), and decided to buy some gluten-free bread. I got the brown rice variety (they stocked tapioca and white rice, too), and when I got home and made my sandwich, I was slightly appalled. It w

The Support I'm Finding Is Amazing

It's getting easier. But then again, it's only the 3rd day. But having a completely gluten-free day yesterday, I realized how much better I felt. I wasn't as gassy during the day, I had more energy, and I wasn't rushing to the bathroom (well, I was, but that was because of all the coffee I drank, not because of something I ate!).   While I haven't been diagnosed as a Celiac, I'm beginning to think that I might be, based on the more I read and all the symptoms I fit (to be truthful, I was worri

Day One

I've never been good with diets. I get going strong for a few weeks, sometimes I've held out for a month or two, but then I fall back and go right back to all the foods I love. So, I've decided to ease into this one. There are still some foods in the house that I bought for me, which I will eat. But it will be so hard to give up some thing food I really adore - like bread, and pasta. And while I know that there are gluten-free forms of these delicious foods, it's still going to be really hard.
