Traveling On Tour Bus?

SO I'm overly excited that I may have the chance in the near future to go on the road and play music. At the same time I'm freaking out b/c the last thing I want is to get sick. There is a fridge and freezer on the bus so I suppose I could pre-make myself some meals, but the fridge is only so big and I'm not the only person who would be using it. I'm sure there will be a lot of eating out going on, but I try to stay away from that for obvious reasons. I'm sure I could find stores along the way when I need more food. I cant rely on processed foods and need to eat a lot of veggies otherwise....C! God, this disease sucks sometimes!-lol...

Has anyone ever traveled on a bus or went on the road for a long time?? I have no idea how long i'll be gone, I probably shouldnt even worry about it right now until I find out......but all these things go through my mind since I always think way ahead...sometimes it's a good and bad thing-lol and then theres the issue of being able to work-out. I need to go running at least 5 times a week otherwise I turn miserable! and nobody else that I'll be traveling with is athletic...they are quite the oppositte-lol

We have an RV and we travel for a week or so at a time sometimes for work. The tour bus will also have a stove so you'll be able to pan fry fresh meats and what not. Luckily there are thousands of naturally gluten free foods. I'm sure you have your own lists of those. Stock up on specialty items that you'll need like flour for coating meat, crackers, Tinkyada pasta, etc. You should be able to fit them in a compartment somewhere. When we travel I rely heavily on a portable Weber gas grill. We eat a lot of baked potato, steak or chicken, and Steamfresh veggies. These things are all found easily in most any grocery store. :) Hot dogs and hamburgers also are easy if you don't need/want a bun. We never do. Hormel has a gluten free list and you can find most of those items in any store as well. Their microwave meals are easy and quick. Don't worry too much about it. I would also either bring your own personal toaster or get some ToastaBags so you don't gluten yourself if you toast a bagel or bread. :) And BTW, congratulations!!!

Providing you can stay well, it sound like a great experience!

Read Open Original Shared Link thread and PM the thread originator for more ideas. She sounds like she has been doing it for awhile.

      Thank you. I already cut out dairy and eggs because I found out I was having a problem with them. To be honest I’m just getting worn out 😂

      Hi Kitty, thank you for your e mail,  I have seen a nutritionist who seemed to be happy with the food diary I had been keeping and nothing was mentioned about extra vitamins, and I’m still using milk etc . The steroids seem to be working and everything is functioning as it should however,  the course of tablets finish at the end of February and I have an appointment with the consultant early April probably followed by another endoscopy, as far as I’m aware I have not been tested for vitamin B and will definitely discuss it with the doctor on my next visit.

      It might be understandable to say "friends or family weeded me or you out of their lives". Some people are fearful of getting out of their comfortable known lives and having to make changes to accommodate another.   If they are too uncomfortable to walk a mile with me, I shake the dust off my feet and journey on.  They're just not ready to learn that lesson.  But you confidently keep going on your journey.  They can catch up later.

      You might also be sensitive to other things while you are healing. Dairy, for example. It won't harm you from a celiac standpoint but is inflammatory and could be bothering you. Have you been keeping a food & symptom journal? Might be worth it for a week to see if you notice something you are eating prior to the times you feel your worst. I hope you start feeling better soon.

      Someone recently recommended Superfoods for looking up recipes free of allergens or intolerances.  It's a web site but there's also an app.
