Welcome...now what does you diet consist of? And what is the reason for such a restrictive diet?  (If you have posted this previously, I appologize for the query) :rolleyes:...i.e. what boat are you in. B)

Me too!! You know it seems impossible but it can be done! I started about 2 or 3 mtgs ago. I tested out nuts and eggs and am ok with them. Here's the positive:

1) I went from 148 pds to 138 pds

2) my energy level went sky-high. I feel like I'm 20 yrs old again.

3) I've been eating really healthy so I feel more motivated to to play w my daughter and even exercise.

4) food tastes better. I'm not kidding. Last night I boiled chicken and had a plain baked potato. And I thought this was yummy! (Hey I liked Big Macs)

5) my tummy isn't ready to burst (ie no massive alien-like bloating).

6) my neurological symptoms are gone

So yeah it's a real pain in the butt and very inconvenient, but it's a lifestyle change I'm ok with.

Stay with it! You can do it!!

I'm also gluten, dairy, soy, egg, yeast, rice, and nut free (except for cashews, those I can have). Life is hard. : (  I was tested for additional food allergies after being diagnosed with gluten and dairy intolerances, and the bloodwork came back and said I had antibodies to the other foods listed. I basically eat meat, veggie & fruits. Breakfast is the hardest meal, I usually have a coconut milk smoothie with a little fruit and some stevia, and some meat leftover from previous night's dinner (this morning was grilled chicken).

 

I've been gluten and dairy free for 2.5 yrs, but only found out about the other foods 6 months ago.  It's not easy...

      Hidden Gluten in distilled vinegar

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I've not heard of any issues with Primal Kitchen, but it certainly would be worth not using the brand for a while to see if this helps. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.

      Can I trust the gluten free label if a product was made in a facility that also processes gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      If you are super sensitive you may want to look for only Certified Gluten-Free Products, as @trents mentioned.

      Gluten free/ non dairy , low calorie pudding

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I'm not sure about low calorie, as puddings are typically a dessert, but we do have this category: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-recipes/gluten-free-dessert-recipes-pastries-cakes-cookies-etc/gluten-free-pudding-recipes/ This one might work if you cut back on the sugar:

      We are off next week on our 9th RCCL cruise since our diagnoses.  I send an email to special_needs@rccl.com before every cruise letting them know that I am both dairy and gluten free and my husband is gluten free.   Unfortunately, with the new menus they introduced in 2023, they removed the gluten-free designation from each item on the menu.  Instead of having a dedicated person take gluten-free orders, it now falls to your regular wait staff.  Some have been great and some not so good.  We had a great cruise in May and hit it off with our head waiter.  She went the extra mile and ordered gluten free desserts that were not on the menu.  My problem arises from other food allergies.  I am allergic to dairy, beef, and several types of fish.  On those days my husband is a happy camper with a steak or salmon, veggies and a baked potato.  I end up not getting enough protein, so I bring protein bars.  I also bring snacks for the room. As long as the food is commercially prepared and unopened, you can bring it. Often the only dessert choices that are gluten free contain dairy, so I am out of luck.  But, if you are just gluten free, they have plenty of choices.  See the head chef in the Windjammer buffet and he will give you a tour of the gluten-free choices.  They usually have 2 gluten free desserts out at lunch and they are labeled gluten free. We have found that it works best to have assigned dining rather than anytime.  That way the waiters learn from the get go what our needs are, and we don't have to explain ourselves every night.  We also get a private table for 2.  I frankly got sick and tired of tablemates telling me a little bit of gluten would not hurt me.

      Hi Trents-Thanks for reading and sharing insight.  We need all the help we can get and it's super appreciated.  She is currently dairy, soy and oat free and those have mostly been completely excluded from her diet since the diagnosis (we tried going back on dairy and oats at different times for a bit, didn't see a significant difference but have now cut out again just to be extra safe since her issues are so persistent.  We did cut eggs out for about 3 months and didn't notice significant difference there, either.  The only one we haven't specifically cut out completely for any portion of time is corn, however, we've kept it minimal in all of our diets for a long time.  She definitely goes 3-4 weeks without any corn products at times and still has issues, but I'm guessing that's not long enough to confirm that it isn't causing issues.   We could definitely try to go longer just to double check.  Thanks again!
