My mom came for a visit and we've been watching Dr. Oz, of course, and talking about my symptoms. She has a friend who's husband has celiac disease and he has a lot of the symptoms I do, except the HS.
All I would eat pretty much weekly is:
Pizza (combo w/Cinnamon sticks) Frozen & boxed to make myself
Life Cereal (breakfast & snack before bed)
Spagetti or Rigatoni
Macaroni & Cheese w/Broccoli & Cauliflower
Canned or Boxed Soup
Cinnamon & Sugar topped White Toast (2 pcs)
Lego Waffles
Chicken/Deer/Pork/Steak/Ham (but those are all good things :) Thank Goodness!!)
Lots of white potatoes - mashed, fried, twice baked....pretty much any way is good for me.
Canned veggies
Corn Meal (mush...mmmm yummy)
Mt. Dew - can - at least 3 a day and up to 5.
Decaffinated Iced Tea (made with 2 cups sugar in 2 qt)
Crystal Light Lemonade
Any kind of Root Beer
Pepsi, Dr. Pepper, etc.....had a lot of soda in the house to drink at anytime.
So, pretty much everything I am eating is probably bad for me. I have decided that I have nothing to lose and will go on a gluten-free diet starting October 5, 2012.
I used to just look at labels and read the Sodium amounts. I was really shocked when I seen the Digiorno pepperoni pizza I was eating was 870mg per serving (serving size 1/5 pizza). I would eat at least 1/3 I'm sure (3-4 pcs), so that's a TON of sodium. That's not even the gluten I was ingesting....so needless to say....no more pizza for me.
