Ideas For Professional Bag In Which To Take Food To Restaurant

I am a recently diagnosed celiac (3 months) and there are times that I will need to take my own food to a restaurant. I work in sales.

What ideas do you have on how I can transport my food? A cooler looks awkward. I need something that looks professional like a briefcase or laptop bag but that will also accommodate freezer blocks for summer use. I'm thinking that I will have to buy a briefcase bag and then outfit is for my needs but wanted to know what the rest of you do.

I had this problem! I seriously was toting a mini Coleman cooler around. I have a lot of allergies on top of celiac, and I can't have raw fruits and veggies either . . . I cook everything from scratch, and everything needs to be cooked, so my food needs to be kept cold or hot!

I'd recommend one of these: Open Original Shared Link I've only used mine a few times as I've recently bought it, but it does a great job at insulating everything . . . and it really doesn't leak if you put ice in it. It is very light. You can search for polar bear coolers on msn shopping to hunt for the best bargain.

This company has backpack coolers, etc., but I'm not sure that it keeps things cool as long as the polar bear. Open Original Shared Link

I'd buy a 'manbag' or some thing similar and a small squishy cooler that will fit inside.

I bought this in the navy blue with the all blue trays. I also bought the blue ice bags that fit in the top of the lunch box. This works very well for me, and looks more professional than anything else I could find.

It is from laptop lunches. Open Original Shared Link

Thanks for all the suggestions. The Polar Bear cooler looks like it will work well so I went ahead and ordered it.

      What should I do with these test results?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Hello, @Jack Common, I know how frustrating health mysteries can be. Perhaps you're having a reaction to the medication you were given for the giardiasis you mentioned in another post. The giardiasis infection would account for the high Igg results.  Have you been reinfected? The site I've linked below has lots of information about the long term consequences of being treated with a medication frequently prescribed for giardiasis infection.   https://hormonesmatter.com/metronidazole-toxicity-doctor-denial/ https://hormonesmatter.com/?s=metronidazole https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3870550/ Please let us know if your symptoms may be due to this reaction to the prescription for giardiasis. Best wishes.

      From the article you linked: "Currently, there are no recommended methods to test for non-celiac gluten sensitivity." "No recommended methods" is the key phrase here. Just on the anecdotal evidence of reading many posts on this forum, I think we sometimes see some elevated igg test scores with NCGS. They seem to be mildly elevated in these cases, not high high.
