Celiac Disease

Hey! I found a few good things working for me in relation to losing weight. I need a more variety of gluten free foods, snacks that are good to help with weightloss in addition to what I am doing and taking already.

At this moment I happen to be eating a delicious ham and spinach sandwich - my sandwiches are basically white corn tortillas stuffed with whatever would have gone in a normal sandwich. Yum! For a snack earlier I had hummus and baby carrots.

Weight loss is dependent on a calorie deficit. Use a food scale if you aren't already. If you just want more variety - you may try googling foods that are gluten free (or finding ones that are marked gluten free) and then searching recipes that use those ingredients

Maybe try allrecipes.com?

It's so hard because I am a picky eater which limits me! I'm trying to open up to new foods but its difficult

I may not have celiac (my sister does, I'm just gluten intolerant), but I'm wondering the same thing

I don't know what you are doing already, but you can feel free to add me and check out my diary. I am almost two years past my Celiac diagnosis and just got back my first normal metabolic panel in over 7 years. Hooray for gut healing.

Substitute foods that I eat: Food for Life Brown Rice bread -- way less sugars than other GF breads, Enjoy Life soft chewy bars and Pamela's Products Whenever Bars. The Zone has a couple of GF bars, one peanut butter and one chocolate that make a good breakfast on the go as well. NutThins crackers don't have too much added sugar and have more protein than most GF crackers and GF Bisquick makes a great sausage ball, decent biscuits and a great base for deserts. ETA: I forgot my pasta! Hodgson Mills is the brand I have the best luck cooking with everything from spaghetti and baked dishes to salad.

Hope that helps!

Fruits and veggies are all gluten free!

I love spaghetti squash as a substitute for pasta. Udi's bread is the only one I can stand and it honestly only works when toasted (but I am picky that way). Lettuce wraps work great for bread subs for sandwiches.

Pamelas is the best for pancake mix. Agree with the other poster about Biquick. I also do a lot of stir fries with thai kitchen rice noodles.

Good luck with it!

Fruits and veggies are naturally GF. A lot of salad dressing is GF.

For GF-special stuff, I like King arthur Flour GF muffin mix, Annie's GF mac n cheese and any and all rice pasta.
