Hi there GFs! I'm looking for gluten free friends that share their food diaries every day so that I can get ideas about what to eat. I do pretty well on my own, I'm just looking for meal ideas. Right now I'm eating the same things day in and day out and they're getting boring! Thanks in advance!

    I have been diagnosed with a gluten intolerance. I am still trying to figure everything out. Plus no...peanuts, dairy, sesame, garlic, yogurt and yeast...so I am having trouble. On top of that my dd16 is vegan. and we are working at eliminating processed food/chemicals. It makes finding food difficult. I am working on it and would like to find friends to help along the way.

    Hi! Was diagnosed with Celiac last August. Feel free to add me and view my food diaries. I'm not going to guarantee they're always healthy but to the best of my knowledge they are always gluten free! :-) I've only been doing MFP a couple of weeks. I'd love the opportunity to check out someone else's food diaries as well. Let me know fi you have any questions. Good luck to all!!!

    Hi! I'm GF and vegetarian.. it's definitely a shift (if you haven't been GF your whole life), however, you really begin to appreciate all starches NOT glutinous.
    Like rice, oatmeal, and potatoes. :P
    Everyone, feel free to add me.. I'm an aspiring health psychology and nutrition student, and would love to find out more about what you guys are eating/experimenting with!

    Hey there, I was diagnosed with Complex Partial Seizures, I also was having some horrible digestive issues. I have no medical insurance, thankfully I have an amazing internist. I started ready about the effects of Gluten and decided to cut it out. Well it worked!!! If I stay away from gluten, no seizures and no digestive issues!!! I know how hard it is to cut it out, but with more and more companies and restaurants offering gluten free options, it's getting much easier to stick to it. Good luck, feel free to add me. I'd love to meet more GF'ers out there.

    I don't have Celiac, however if you'd like to add me and YOUR journal is open, I'd love that! My boyfriend has Celiac and needs ideas for meals, as he's new to this, so seeing the journals of those with Celiac will help me to help him :)

    I've been gluten free for 4 years... Wow that just dawned on me.... But we think I've had Celiac's my whole life. I use to keep a blog about dining out but haven't updated in a while... I'm hoping to lose a lot of weight with the aid of this app and am loving it far. Would love some advice and feedback.

    I have wheat allergies. I eat no wheat (7 years), but my diet might not be completely GF, but you are more than welcome to look at my food diary.

    Hi There,
    I'm waiting on my biopsy results to confirm Celiac.... I have been Gluten Free for about 2.5 years, appart from the 6 weeks prior to the gastroscopy/biopsy I had several weeks ago. Even if my results dont show Celiac I will be gluten free for the rest of my life because i know my body just cant handle wheat!

    I'm gluten free (and casein-free also!). My celiac symptoms became pretty rough when I was in elementary school, and I'm going into my last year of college now. I love to talk to others who are GF, so if you're looking for someone to chat with, feel free to hit me up!
