I agree totally. There are very few processed GF foods that I buy - and that's not often. Crackers for entertaining and I love the Scharr shortbread cookies when I'm making a cheesecake (for the crust.) The latter is a special treat for my son who is not GF but if I'm making it, I'm eating it!

Food allergies are really tough. Thankfully, I only have an issue with Gluten. I was diagnosed with Celiac and haven't had a tough time adjusting. I felt so much better so immediately that it was worth leaving the gluten behind. I found that eating clean really makes a difference when I first was diagnosed and I did indeed…

ER physician put me on low fat restriction. He explained that the fat intake will "activate" the release of bile of the gallbladder, to facilitate the breakdown of the fat through the small intestine which will potentially move the stones to once again block the ducts.

The nuts have been a staple for me but I'm a bit nervous about them due to the fat content now with the Gallstones. I'm so terrified of another attack... Same goes for the pork and beans... I do get your point though and especially…

Great idea, thanks. With fat free milk that wouldn't trigger the gallstones!

I have a surgical consult on Wednesday AM. I do try to eat clean but have not worried about fats. My cholesterol has been excellent since going GF and frankly, it's been my saving grace having given up the pleasures of gluten! Thankfully I do not have any dairy issues so cheese, cream, skinless meats have not been off my…

Not until the ER doc told me... I didn't fit any of the other profiles... Nice surprise

I'm also a big fan of Pamela's. I'm the only Celiac in the family, but everyone wolfs them down and doesn't even know the difference. On special occasions when I go all out, I make my Gram's homemade buttermilk pancakes with folded whipped eggwhites; fluffiest you'll ever see and the tastiest you'll ever put in your…
