Guest guest Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 It is common to feel hungry in the middle of the night and in between meals after going GF at first. If the gluten was the problem, you weren't absorbing the nutrients needed. Now that your gut is healing, its absorbing nutrients. You're body realizes this and is trying hard to absorb everything it needs and quickly. Its basically replenishing its stores. Once you get back to where you should be, the hunger should subside. Try and have a bedtime snack to help prevent the " midnight " snacking. Ice cream is my favorite bedtime snack. And snack often throughout the day. ~ in NH > > Hi SillyYaks-- > > What a great name!

Guest guest Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 My 3.5 year old daughter has been requesting glasses of milk before bed & just after going to bed since going gf.(7 weeks today) She says she's hungry too! We do CONSTANT snacking during the day. She is SEVERELY underweight (19-20 pounds, 33.5 " ). I've been thinking of leaving some milk in a " chill cup " and some sort of snack for her to eat at night if she wakes up. Gabby will NEVER wake us up to say she's awake & hungry, but you can tell the mornings after she's been awake half the night! HUNGRY doesn't begin to describe it! It's, " How fast can you get me the milk, juice, yogurt & bread, Mom????! " Interesting to hear the adult's side of things! Laurel > > Hi SillyYaks-- > > What a great name!

Guest guest Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 I swore I'd never give unsolicited parenting advice, bc as a parent myself I HATE that, but please reconsider the milk at night thing. It's horrible for your daughters teeth...and I say this from experience. My mom did the same thing with me, and I ended up having a mouth full of cavities and fillings before my 5th birthday!! Literally. I had so many they completely knocked me out with "the gas" and just did it that way (of course, this was 1975ish....) The good news, though, is that I have had only 1-2 cavities since!! As for hunger, my son was ravenous his first month or so of going GF. And of course now that he's growing he gets "bursts" of not being able to be filled up still. I think this is probably pretty normal, maybe bc your body is healing and feels like eating/catching up again!?

Guest guest Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 When I starting eating only gluten free meals, I had more belly pain and discomfort than I had before. This is at least partly due to being afraid to eat the wrong things. When I realized that, I ate, and felt better. The problem was that I didn't know if I was eating the wrong thing or not enough. Even 2 1/2 years later, there are times when I don't eat enough and eating helps. I find that I eat more frequently than I did in the past. So, I would suggest that you find something that works for you - ice cream, fruit, popcorn, chips, and eat that when you feel hungry. You might also have a snack before you go out to eat since by the time your food arrives, others will have eaten bread. Also, it may take time for your gut to heal. You may consider taking a "lactaid" or equivalent when having milk products until that happens. Good luck! You will discover "your comfort zone". Randy hunger Hi SillyYaks--What a great name!

Guest guest Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 To both Molly and Laurel, The type of food you eat can have a big effect on how soon you feel hunger. Many folks seem to eat simple carbs at bedtime, and they digest quickly. Try a protein or complex starch instead - it may keep you satisfied longer. For a young child, maybe a Pediasure (check w/ your Pedi first) instead of milk would be more satisfying? Maybe a snack of cheese, nuts, hardboiled egg slices, cold cuts + crackers would help? I also second the notion of not letting a child have milk at their bedside - celiac kids have enough trouble with their teeth (4 crowns, 3 root canals and 2 fillings at age 4 for my son - NOT due to lack of dental care and regular brushing!) You might also think about leaving out something Gabby can help herself to in the morning if she gets up before you do. For a while, I had to leave my son a sippy cup with milk in the fridge and dry cereal in a covered bowl because he was waking up well before his (and our) usual rising time and would be just ravenous and cranky. It worked better for all us if he could just go EAT and not have to wait for Mom or Dad to turn their brains on. My personal favorite bedtime snack used to be oat cereal with berries and nuts, but I can't find a GF cereal that is good enough to eat at bedtime.

I feed them protein and a crunchy vegetable before bedtime. It's generally some Dr Praeger's GF fishies, some left over protein from dinner or a hard boiled egg and a carrot. Or I give them some celery filled with peanut butter. Every night before I go to bed I put tubs of cut fruit and boiled eggs in the fridge and and they know that they can eat that if they get hungry. I also peel a carrot and wrap it up in wax paper and fill a bottle with ice and put those next to their beds. Shez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 11, 2006 Report Share Posted April 11, 2006 I did find that we had to balance our daughter's meals and snacks out to the point she was not always " grazing " but actually did eat. We had to get to the balance of offering food when she was hungry but also making it a point to feed her meals and have her hungry for them too. The great balancing act.

Guest guest Posted April 12, 2006 Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 Hi, When I was first diagnosed and trying to figure out how and what to eat, I felt like I was hungry ALL THE TIME. I increased my protein intake (mostly by stashing jars of peanut butter at the office and my desk at home and keeping a can of nuts by the bed). I also started eating more salads because I got to chew for more time than eating a bunless burger allows. If we don't chew enough or eat long enough, our brain doesn't know to send the " all full " signal. It is about 20 minutes. It has been almost 3 years and I still need to eat about 4-5 times a day but I am not eating entire meals all 5 times. I think that part of it was that once my body realized that it was getting the extra nutrition, it went into overdrive to make up for lost time. I still crave fats since they are what makes a person feel full but I am also about 15-20 lbs above the weight I want to be. If I always feed the crave, that is going to increase. It is a balancing act to maintain enough of the " Stick with you food " to function and be healthy and not so much that it is still sticking a week later! For the next few weeks to months, always have a stash of food with you. There are some seseme pretzel rings that are reasonably tasty. PB and a spoon is always safe and doesn't need to be refridgerated. Cheese sticks are portable but do need a fridge. Larabar snacks are a bit pricy but both tasty and dense enough to stave off hunger for a while and they are GF. Good luck. Becky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 12, 2006 Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 Becky-- Thank you for this interesting insight. My daughter now chews & swallows " normally " most of the time but for the first year of having her home, she put the food in her mouth & sucked/chewed/sucked before we FORCED her to spit out or swallow. I am guessing this was her way of getting to the 20 minute-mark for the " all full " to kick in! Gabby was 25 months at adoption & never had any full meals till she came to us. Her birthmom never had enough food and in the orphanage, breakfast was kefir (thinned--nasty smelling--yogurt) and cold, unsweetened tea. Lunch and dinner were a small cup of soup (usually veggie), slice of bread and cold unsweetened tea. I can see why she would hold & suck the food...just to have something to save & eat when you want! But I never thought about the 20-minute " all full " thing. Makes sense! Thanks!

Guest guest Posted April 12, 2006 Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 > > Are they both GF? > > > > The Lifeway and Helios brands are very, very good. I haven't come across any kefir that wasn't GF yet, but it is possible. However, some kefir contains this vile substance called INULIN - which the company claims to be a form of dietary fiber but we find acts like a very harsh laxative. I think Lifeway might be the one kefir I can still buy without inulin. Maureen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 12, 2006 Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 Sorry--didn't mean to offend! Kind-of like the lima bean issue; either you like it or you don't! Gabby obviously liked/tolerated it! She does LOVE sour stuff...lemons, pickles, vinegar, but cruiously can't stand mustard! She loves spicy stuff too...so it's not the heat! Adopted brother, Duncan also loves sour stuff. Must be in-born cuz he was only 8.5 months at adoption from Russia...not into the Kefir yet! Sorry!
