I have Celiac and am having a real problem finding some diet that has some taste to it and will give me some energy. The problem I have is I think I am getting board with the food and end up eating to much junk, thus feeling like I have a real shortage of energy when I swim. With the new season now upon us I don't want to start crashing at the meets. Is there any other Celiacs out there that have found some good diet and maybe some supplements that we can take. Maybe if there is enough of us out there we could put all our heads together and come up with a good and tasty diet.
Thanks Glen
I've changed my diet to the following the last few weeks and it's helping me to get leaner.
mornings before swimming ~ 1 or 2 quarts of carrot juice
afternoons after swimming ~ 5 or 6 peeled & chopped red delicious apples
evenings ~ large chopped salad usually consisting of
2 large cucumbers
2 large summer squash
nopales paddles
sometimes with ginger root or an apple
I'm amazed you have enough calories to sustain yourself through your day simply eating vegetables and apples. Are you a very tiny person? How much swimming are you doing? Do you have a very sedentary daytime career? I'm a 115 lb. older female and I consume more than triple the calories you have listed above. I'm totally amazed. I'm glad your digestive system is doing well but truthfully you're not eating anything that takes much to digest.
