    I'm not sure ya'll want to know what I eat :P I'm allergic to dairy and yeast too, so I can't really have bread products. I'm allergic to cinnimon too. My meals and snacks take a lot of creativity since I have so many food allergies. And I have type 2 diabetes so I count every carb VERY carefully. And I'm trying to get my cholesterol down to normal so I count every gram of fat too. LOL

    Breakfast: either Quaker Corn Bran with soy milk or unsweetened oatmeal (oats don't bother me thankfully) with a hard boiled egg and a half banana and coffee.

    Lunch/Dinner: A Green Giant veggie mix (many varieties are without gluten/dairy/yeast) and 4 oz of either skinless boneless baked chicken or cooked turkey (no processed or deli-sliced meats with preservatives) and either half a small potato or a half cup of rice.

    Snacks: I have the most fun here. I've found LOTS of gluten-dairy-yeast free snacks. Includings: Enjoy Life Coco Loco bars, Glutino Chocolate Peanut bars, 1/2 cup of grapes or small Cuties mandarine orange, Gensoy Zesty Barbeque Soy Crisps, RW Garcia 5 Seed Onion & Chive Crackers (blow-your-mind delicious), Enjoy Life soft-baked Snickerdoodles, Edward & Sons Brown Rice Snaps, Erin's All Natural Popcorn (low saturated fat version), Go Raw Chocolate Super Cookies or Chocolate Squares, or sometimes half an apple sliced and dipped in some crunchy Addam's all natural peanut butter (when I feel I can splurge on some fats).

    You may not want them because you are counting carbs, but if you want them, I have dairy-free/yeast free bun, pancake, and tortilla recipes that might add some desired variety. You can find them in the Recipes and Websites threads at http://www.myfitnesspal.com/forums/show/8246-grain-free

    If you need help adjusting them for other allergies, let me know.

    Breakfast: Juiced: apple, pear, celery, cucumber, red pepper, cubella or frying pepper, cilantro, garlic, kale
    Divided into three servings

    Lunch: Coat mushrooms with olive oil, Portebello mushrooms baked for 15 minutes round side down @ 425 degrees F. Turn over, coat mushrooms with olive oil again, fill with sauce, meat, etc. Family loved them filled with pepperoni and cheese. Of course, no cheese for me.

    Snacks: Cranberries dried with pumpkin seeds (no shells), walnuts, brazil nuts, and small amount of iodized salt. (thyroid issues) That is a great snack I can put into a bag and put into my coat. Otherwise, I like fruit and vegies.


    Dinner: Chicken with salad and quinoa

    Well here's an unusual breakfast - I just didn't feel like eggs today. So this morning after my workout I had...

    Coho salmon, rice and fresh pico de gallo.

    I'm a bit jealous- salmon and moose. I've never had moose, but heard it is very good. Great scenery.

    My typical breakfast consists of a banana, a zero-fat Chobani yogurt, and a glass of skim milk. I usually workout in the morning, so I eat the banana pre-workout, and the rest after. About once every week or two I'll have a bowl of Rice Chex instead.

    My mid-morning snack is a small handful of walnuts (about an 1/8 of a cup), a clementine orange (or two, if they're small), and sometimes another glass of milk. I also have a cup of black coffee.

    For lunch, I usually hit the salad bar. Spinach, tomatoes, peas, onions, green peppers, a tiny sprinkling of cheese, and about one tablespoon of fat-free red wine vinagarette dressing. Sometimes I'll throw on some grilled chicken. I'm lucky because the salad bar that I use keeps the croutons far away from everything else, and I've never had a cross-contamination incident.

    My mid-afternoon snack is another small handful of walnuts, another clementine (or two), and sometimes a little low-sodium cottage cheese. And, usually another cup of coffee to get me over the mid-day doldrums.

    I mix it up for dinner, though my go-to meal is a homemade salad. Spinach, tomatoes, onions, black olives, a little cheese, and a can of tuna or chicken. Same deal with the dressing. When I'm cooking, I'll make quinoa-lime chicken, grilled salmon and asparagus, or, if I'm good on calories for the day, some gf pasta with grilled chicken, veggie quesadillas with corn tortillas, or taco salad with lean turkey meat.

    If I'm craving something sweet at night, I'll cut up an apple and peanut butter w/honey and cinnamon, or just munch on some frozen blueberries.

    Obviously, I eat out on occasion (burger, no bun), sushi, and other gluten-free-but-not-necessarily-healthy things :)

    Gluten free is SO much easier now. I was diagnosed at age two (in 1982), and really until Atkins got popular, it was nearly impossible to eat out. I'd ask for a burger without the bun and get those vapid stares and the inevitable, stupid question: "How are you gonna eat it?" Then it would still come with the bun, and when I tried to send it back, the server would say, "just take the bun off." Right. Let me pour some cyanide on your food and tell you to scrape it off. Good luck with that.

    Anyway, once the Atkins carb-free business got moving, the no-bun thing became much easier. People still didn't really "get it" as to gluten, but at least they knew what was up with ordering without a bun. Then, a few years ago with the gluten-free fad, everything became so much easier.

    I'm glad the Cheddars experience went well for you!

    Today I did a 1/2 Food for Life multi-seed G-F english muffin with a fried egg and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Lunch was leftover Chicken Tortilla soup topped with some D-F Daiya chedder cheese and toritlla chips. Snacks have been tea with coconut oil and stevia and homemade/raw juice from this morning (beet, kale, carrot, apple, ginger, and lemon). I have Bikram yoga later, so I am trying to keep my meals light.

    Hi everyone

    I'm new to this having been diagnosed celiac last week. You all have some great meal ideas - good to know it'll take a while to get my head around but will become more normal after that. Lucky for me I love cooking and don't eat processed foods wherever possible, so I don't think it should be too difficult. It'll be thinks like condiments that will trip me up, as I'm a condiment queen haha!

    So here's today for me:

    Breakfast - Smoothie made with blueberries, banana, 1/2 dessert spoon peanut butter, rice protein powder

    Lunch - 1 chopped tomato, 1 small chopped hardboiled egg, 1/2 chopped reed avocado, 100g prawns cooked in garlic and chilli all tossed together with a squeeze of lemon (pic below)
    8415869538_d3e2615bd9.jpg

    Dinner - I plan to make a chicken corn chowder, with chicken, bacon, roasted corn, cannellini beans, coconut milk and fresh chilli.

    Nice to meet you all, have a lovely day!

    Heather :)

    I am reading the ten commandent diet
    i got a free Sample from Amazon thougt it was great so I order the kindle version of it to find out more about it
    But will continue to be Gluten Free it was highly recomended by a friend Will keep you posted

  • Bob's red Mill products that I tried have been delicious: Gluten free quick cook oats (usually add cinnamon and chopped apple or dried fruits and/or nuts), Gluten free Pancake mix, Gluten free Cornbread. I have bought some of their cake mixes and brownie mixes, and pizza crust (which my friend totally loves), but haven't tried any of these yet.
    Since going gluten free in Aug. 2012 I've found that risotto is a fun alternative to rice (I buy the flavored kinds), Quinoa (which takes on the taste of foods that it's with so usually make it into a salad--- I put tomatoes, rinsed black beans, cucumber, shredded carrots, feta cheese and sliced almonds, and lime juice, but so many ways to make it), gluten free brown rice pastas (I like to add veggies to sauce to add substance w/o a lot of calories.
    I always have Nature path wild berry gluten free frozen waffles on hand I love to put peanut butter on these and/ or some of the following: frozen or fresh berries, lite whipped cream, sugar free syrup, kroger (Smith's) carb lite yogurts, preserves. I like multi-grain breads so I usually buy a loaf of this and freeze it since I don't eat it that often and cinnamon raisin bread with lite or fat free cream is good.
    I usually try to stick to smaller portions sizes of substance foods and fill up on fruits and veggies to fill my plates and have for snacks (along with some protein items like cheese, yogurt or nuts for snacks).
    Hope this gives you some ideas- )

    Hi I'm new to the site as of about a month ago - and just found your group - I am gluten-intolerant - and so is my husband - convenient actually that we both are - just coincidental - but it has made it easier on both of us. We are both also allergic to milk products and I have been told by my allergist that I'm allergic to corn.

    We follow a gluten-free diet and have for over two years now. I have not been 100% milk free - but I'm better now - especially now that I'm on a healthy weight loss plan - I LOVE yogurt and so I eat goat or sheep yogurt which is fine for me - but I live on the island of Kauai and sometimes we cannot get products until "the shipment comes in" - and we have only a few stores that carry it - so sometimes (like right now) I cave and buy greek (cow) yogurt. I try not to overdo it - but a shipment of goat yogurt comes in on the 15th so I am hoping to score some.

    Well in answer to the topic here's what I usually eat:

    B: Goat Yogurt w/ frozen organic blueberries or fresh if I can get them, a few strawberries and of course fresh papaya yum- I have this as is or sometimes sprinkled with any variety of the following:
    walnuts, chia seeds, hemp seeds, organic shredded coconut ( I do not overdo on the sprinkles because the calories do add up and I try to keep breakfast in the 200 to 300 cal. range.

    B2: Sometimes I will have egg beaters and top with a bit of yogurt and fruit on the side. I need my protein to feel satisfied.

    L: Lunch is my biggest meal and it's pretty much the same with variations: B I G salad - I really mix it up - I'm blessed to live in Hawaii and I have my own garden year-round - I grow alot of my salad fixings myself - fresh kale - my favorite - chop it up and just massage it with an oil/vinegar or lemon dressing - it softens the leaves and it is the bomb as they! Also add in things like:
    Watercress, parsley, red cabbage, napa cabbage, any other lettuces that might be in the garden, tomato, mushrooms - well - let's just say - I really vary my daily salads and make them as colorful as possible - I like to chop up my veggies and toss with my dressing - then I top them with a protein of choice: chicken (skinless), salmon or ahi or other fresh fish or shrimp, pork tenderloin, center cut pork chop.

    D: Well - I am not a big dinner eater any longer - I may have some smoked salmon and veggies - a few GF crackers only occasionally now as I really have to watch my carbs/sugars due to elevated cholesterol. I may grab a little left over protein from lunch and sometimes if I'm really hungry - another salad.

    Snacks: I have fruit - learning about "low glycemic" choices - just starting on that journey - but have been pretty much addicted to pomegranates. I may have some raw almonds (yes, I count them out - as I have always been a bit of a squirrel and nuts were a weakness) If I really want something sweet - I have fresh coconut if I have it - or dried organic no sugar added coconut with a few banana chips - I really try to limit those - again - easy to get carried away - don't ever let myself eat out of the bag - I serve it out and if I want more I have to make the walk back to the kitchen - it helps me to reinforce how much I'm eating.

    Thanks for all of your input and support - If new to the GF lifestyle - I'm glad to share my experiences - GF does not mean calorie free obviously or I wouldn't be here! I am committed to living GF - it's all about reading labels and asking questions when dining out - but it's do-able!

    ALoha - Lynn

    Breakfast- I start every day with a smoothie. I pack it full of brown rice protein powder, a scoop of Green Superfood, chia and flax seeds, coconut oil, almond milk, and usually 1/2 a banana and a scoop of cocoa powder.

    Lunch- I cook different soups and stews in batches over the weekend to freeze into individual portions. Today, I had some vegan roasted root vegetable soup over some brown rice and grass fed ground beef and a salad with homemade olive oil and peach balsamic vinegar dressing.

    Snack before the gym- I have a couple of blood oranges and a handful of raw pecans today.

    Dinner- Tonight, I'm making some mustard glazed chicken thighs with mashed sweet potato and braised green beans.

    My usual pattern currently:

    breakfast - bean chili, fruit

    snack - homemade trail mix

    lunch - supper leftovers, maybe with potato, quinoa, and/or frozen veggies

    snack - buckwheat porridge or baked potato

    supper
    - potatoes w/ sauce
    - Mexican - tacos, taco salad, chili, sloppy joes, quesadillas
    - hearty veg/lentil soup
    - breakfast for supper - pancakes or crepes, hash browns, tofu, fruit
    - homemade pizza, veggie burgers, or falafel
    - mashed potatoes and gravy
    - roasted veggies
    - stir fry
    (and of course a salad and side veggie with each of these)

    snack - fruit, leftovers, porridge, etc.

    so much fiber!... does that not cause, er.... other 'issues'???
