Good morning! I have not been diagnosed with Celiac's but I do have a very bad intolerance to any gluten or wheat products (and any lactose products!) That makes being on this plan a little more difficult, but not impossible!
Because of this, I am basically on the "boot camp" version of this diet. I can safely eat the jello, puddings (cause minor reaction), cranberry/pom drink, and the drinks (cappuccino and chocolate drinks) I am sure there are other items available that are gluten free, but I cannot speak to them because they have whey or lactose in them and give me a severe reaction! Perhaps if you ask your coach to give you a print out of which items are gluten free it will make your life a little easier!
Come to think of it, I believe someone had posted a chart of all products' ingredient breakdown including carbs, calories, gluten free etc. Does anyone still have that chart?
Good Luck!
