Pro Tips:
Since there are quite a few threads with the same general questions I figured it was time to have a sticky. Some of us have been gluten free for years, some of us are just learning we might need to go GF. Those first months are terrifying and confusing and full of mistakes. The least we long term GF folks can do is offer…
Just Ask!!
[code="blue"] I am still a work in progress with the whole no gluten thing. My list goes on to include tomatoes and nitrates as well as a few other things. Well I checked into a decent hotel on the beach. I was ordering breakfast trying to figure out what I can eat on their menu, which had combined choices. So I mentioned…
Rules
I realized I should probably have some sort of "Rules" thing. 1. Play nicely with one another. 2. Don't be hyper sensitive. The End.
New Mod
Hello! I'm going to be taking over for ilookthetype as mod/admin, she said she wasn't too vocal and you kids were so well behaved she never had to actually moderate for you. I don't intend to change that! I did want to open up and ask if anyone was interested in helping out with moderating or being a name people…

Hoping this group is still active
Good morning- I don’t see any posts from 2023 so this is me testing the waters….
Looking for friends
Hi Everyone, I have posted on here introducing myself, but every time I try to add a person who comments, or peaks my interest I don't have the option to do so! I use my iPad, iPhone & Mac, but the Add Friend button is never available ... I am wanting to gain friends, so if anyone wants to add me please do so. I will…
Consistency
I have finally become consistent at eating gluten free. I wasn’t sure I’d ever get to this point. It’s taken me years of trying to eat gluten free and just recently I’ve been strict gluten free for 2+ months. Not long enough to reap all the benefits but long enough to know I can live this way for life. I’ve decided that my…

Food replacement help
Hello! I have been on MFP for years and have reduced my gluten intake due to GI issues, so have some experience in this area. However, my husband was just diagnosed with Celiac Disease and is wavering between denial and grief! He has yet to even think about cutting out gluten as he cannot fathom life without it. So...I am…
New and Struggling
Hey there. New to this group but not to MFP. Struggling with going gluten free, and looking for friends and tips. Every time I am doing well lately I get sick by accidentally eating something that I thought was safe. It was mayo this time. Figured its time I find a group because my partner and I are trying to figure out…
I have Leaky Gut
Brief background: I figured out on my own that I had an issue with Gluten/Wheat in April 2013. Some of my symptoms experienced back then was itching all over my body, heartburn, stomach pains, intestinal pain and bumps breaking out all over my face. I went to several different doctors and all my test came back normal. My…
Eating Gluten and symptoms
How do you all restrict yourself from gluten filled foods? I have been “mostly” gluten free for a year. I have a stress eating problem and sometimes I give in to the gluten temptations. I know that it will make me feel crappy but that apparently isn’t enough to keep me gluten free 100% of the time. How do you all do it?? I…
Missing Malt Powder??
I've been gluten free for like five years now (Celiac), so I'm pretty solid at avoiding it by now. However, one thing I do miss is the taste of malted milk/shakes. I found out recently that Maca, which is a superfood root (really healthy for you) tastes like malt powder. I make SunWarrior protein drinks now with frozen…
Fatigue and Gluten
Hiya , Ive never been tested, however I suspect that my hits of fatigue are directly linked with eating gluten products. I have eliminated gluten from most of my meals , however on occasions where I eat both unhealthily and a standard product, I feel just exhausted. Does anyone else experience this? Should I get tested?…
