What Did You Eat/exercise Today? 3/29

Hey y'all! I was just wondering what everyone else eats on their gluten-free diet and as part of their lifestyle. I thought by sharing, we could gain better tips and advice from those doing it right, get some new ideas, or even realize where we are lacking ourselves in the nutrient department. Do y'all want to start this as a new post? ;)

I tend to eat 5-6 small mini meals a day because I have an 11 month old Im running after, and a very busy life. I feel ill any other way. I've also been a vegetarian since I was 7. I LOVE my gluten-free diet and feel so much better already.... Here is what I have planned for today:

* A big smoothie before leaving house- frozen strawberries, banana, a handful of baby spinach, and some cucumber slices (sounds gross, but want to make sure to eat my veggies) + ice/water

* A Cottage Cheese double for next mini meal (rasberry flavor)

* Some scrambled EggBeater (equivelant to 2 eggs) with mushrooms

* An Amy's frozen (veggie) Sheppard's Pie. Gluten-free ofcourse!

*A rice cake with peanut butter...

That's all for now. What about y'all? For exercise I teach a fitness class in the morning for an hour. Today is my easy day : )

Here's my plan for today:

Breakfast was: Turkey sausages and a supplement cocktail (some vitamin C crystals, a little modified citrus pectin, some detox drops, chlorella and a little stevia to taste, lol)

Mid morning snack: egg salad

Lunch: ground beef and broccoli

Dinner (actually early afternoon): NY steak, sauteed (in olive oil) brussells sprouts, another supplement cocktail or perhaps the same made into a smoothie

Evening snack: Turkey slices

Exercise: At lunch time: 20-25 minutes on the treadmill or exercise bike, and after work, a leg workout--this is also my easy day.

Van's gluten-free flax waffle with coconut oil and a fried egg on top for breakfast.

Grilled chicken salad (grilled chicken, grapes, cashews with mayo) for lunch.

Dinner will be cleaning out the refrigerator because we are leaving for Florida Saturday, plus I don't feel good enough to cook today. I'll probably end up with Amy's enchiladas.

Evening snack will be kifir -- plain with a powdered lemon-flavor probiotic mixed in (VSL#3). I'll probably also eat a piece of Kinnikinnick yeast-free toast with coconut oil on it.

Today is a day off from exercise. I lift weights four days per week, but cannot do any cardio right now because of the Lyme Disease.

The kids are on spring break right now, so our routine has gone out the window. I haven't really had any meals yet today (kids had cereal)...just pomegranate & berry juice and coffee so far. Will have to make lunch for the kids soon...will probably have pasta w/red sauce for lunch myself. :)

For exercise, I'll be going to an 1.5 hour hot yoga class tonight. I'll have to eat dinner 2-3 hours before the start of class.

Today I have already consumed two soft boiled eggs and a banana.

For lunch I have planned some yogurt and perhaps a bag of popcorn.

I have about a 6-8 mile run planned for today at lunch time. It's actually sunny here

for a change, so that will really pick up my energy. I didn't run yesterday, so I might end

up going 10 miles if my legs feel springy.

Tonight I think I'll make a Chicken/Veggie stir fry with gluten-free Teryaki Sauce.

Propel fitness water is my beverage of choice(I know sickening isn't it)

I have created a stash of my favorite ice cream for when my cravings get really bad.

Other snacks I have around are some gluten-free Cookies, that are mildly satisfying.

Couple different kinds of Corn Chips and potato chips...

Have fun at Disney! We won't make it there this trip. My dad lives in St. Pete, so we'll be staying there.

      Years of testing - no real answers

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      The intestinal tract can be as long as twenty-two feet long, so intestinal damage may be out of the reach of endoscopy tools.  Some people have had more success with capsule endoscopy, but this method cannot take biopsies.

      What should I do with these test results?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Jack Common, It's possible that your antibiotic for giardiasis has caused thiamine deficiency.   https://hormonesmatter.com/metronidazole-toxicity-thiamine-deficiency-wernickes-encephalopathy/ And... Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/ For clarification, the weight of your slice of bread is not equal to the amount of gluten in it.   Gluten helps form those big holes in breads, so breads like thick chewy pizza crust and artisan breads contain more gluten than cakes and cookies.

      Guidance on next steps after the lab tests

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Sorry about that link.  It was meant for a different post.   Do consider taking high dose Vitamin D in order to get your level up to around 80 nm/l quickly.   This is the level where Vitamin D can properly work like a hormone and can improve the immune system and lower inflammation.  It makes a big difference.   I took high dose Vitamin D and really improved quickly.  I ate Vitamin D supplements throughout the day like m&ms.  My body craved them.  Very strange, I know, but it worked.   Before you have surgery, you really need to improve your vitamins and minerals.  Vitamins A and D, Vitamin C and Niacin are extremely important to skin health and repair.  Without these, the body does not repair itself neatly.  I've got a scar worthy of a horror movie.  My doctors were clueless about nutritional deficiencies. A sublingual Vitamin B12 supplement will work better for boosting levels.  Tablets or liquid drops in the mouth are easily absorbed directly into the blood stream.   Do bear in mind that about half of Celiac people react to the protein in dairy, Casein, the same as they react to gluten because segments of the protein in Casein resembles segments of the protein Gluten.  Some people lose the ability to produce lactase, the enzyme that digests Lactose, the sugar in dairy, as they age.  Others lose the ability to produce lactase because the intestinal Villi become damaged during the autoimmune response against gluten, and damaged chili can't produce lactase.   Do try Benfotiamine.  It has been shown to improve gastrointestinal health and neuropathy. Keep us posted on your progress!

      Thanks sending me additional links including how to test for thiamine deficiency. With regards to your first link, I wasn't diagnosed with giardiasis and I didn't take antibiotic for it. I try to generally stay away from antibiotic unless absolutely necessary as it might affect gut health. For treating phimosis, the doctor didn't give me antibiotics. I need to have a circumcision surgery which I haven't got around to schedule it.

      I'm not vegan, just vegetarian. I consume dairy but not egg. So I have started including some Vitamin D fortified milk as well as a multivitamin with 2000 IU daily. For Vitamin B12, like you said it's very difficult to get it from just vegetarian sources and have started consuming Vitamin B Complex daily. My PCP was worried when my Vitamin D result came out as It was 3.7 ng/ml last year. He said that being low for a lengthy time could have done some damage to the body over the years. Now, though Vitamin D level has improved after the supplements, I'm not sure if the neurological damage has already been done. I'll continue including the supplements and see if my symptoms improve. I'll also get tested for celiac to see if I need to be in gluten-free diet.
