Romano'S Macaroni Grill, So. Portland, Maine

I recently enjoyed a wonderful gluten-free meal at Romano's Macaroni Grill in South Portland, Maine. The manager, Jacob Eslinger, has Celiac so he was very knowlegeable as to my diet restrictions. He came over to the table and assured me I would have a gluten free meal. I enjoyed a delicious halibut with risotto, mediteranean olives for an appetizer and sorbet for dessert. The waitress was wonderful. Everyone was very accommodating and friendly and didn't make me feel they were being "put out."

Since I was in the area for a few days I also tried Uno's Chicago Grill which also has a gluten free menu and Redbridge gluten free beer. They were very nice there as well and the meal was good.

For lunch I tried North Star Cafe on Congress St. in Portland. They have several gluten free items on the menu. I enjoyed a turkey sandwich with avocado (bread gluten-free) and a delicious vegetable soup. Kind of an upbeat, funky place and you can also get a massage right there on the band platform before or after you eat.

      I put on over 12kg by eating protein with every meal, 3 to 5 times a day. Eggs, Chicken, Tuna, Turkey etc. I stay away from too much red meat as it can be inflammatory. Scott is correct. I've come across a bunch of Coeliac PT's on Tiktok and Instagram. They all say the same thing, the key is getting enough protein and consistency.

      It's great to hear that eliminating gluten has helped alleviate symptoms like eye burning, which is a significant and positive change. The first and most important step is to ensure you're consuming enough protein throughout the day to support muscle repair and growth, which can be challenging with a busy schedule. Since you're already physically active at work, adding focused strength training just 2-3 times per week can make a major difference. Bodyweight exercises like squats, push-ups (modified if needed), and lunges, or using resistance bands at home, are excellent, efficient places to start. Remember, consistency with these short sessions and prioritizing post-workout recovery, including good sleep and hydration, are just as crucial as the workouts themselves. It's a smart, gradual process at any age.

      Trader Joe's carries a good variety of affordable gluten-free foods like bagels, hamburger buns, pasta, etc. I like Franz Gluten Free bread, which is available at my local Costco. Food For Life and Little Northern Bakehouse (advertisers here) also make excellent gluten-free breads. Costco also sells gluten-free pizzas, crackers, gravy, etc.
