Dear Advanced Board Members.

I am still new at this and am just learning what initials stand for. The one I want to know about is lol. Does that mean - lots of laughter - lots of luck - ? - ?.

Thanks, Armetta

Hi Matilda,

To find your past posts just click on your board name, which will link you to your profile. Then click view past posts.

What problem are you having with the celiac.com recipies, and can you send a link to me with an example?

Thank you,

Scott

I started a thread a little while ago saying I had too many little blue boxes. I just noticed I've gone from advanced community member back to community member again, and wanted to comment as this suits me fine. Scott has answered my question about this in this thread, but I wondered, where did my previous thread go? Was it edited out as too tedious and repetitive? There's plenty of repetition on this board. Do threads really get removed for that reason?

I've just noticed that another thread I started has disappeared. I mentioned that the Celiac.com recipe section wasn't working properly. Incidentally it still isn't, I checked yesterday.

I'm probably just being blind, but I can't find them and I can't help thinking that if threads are deliberately removed it might be polite to mention it.

I'm sure I'm going to regret posting this, as they're probably lurking here somewhere. I think I'm probably in a gluten induced bad temper. Excuses, excuses. My apologies.

      Great tips, Deb. Thanks.  What a pity that they no longer mark items as gluten-free. And it is even more of a shame that you must bring protein bars instead of the crew helping you with your needs. Are you planning on sailing Royal again?

      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.

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

      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.
