  1. First of all, you need to change your eating habits for your children. They need to learn to eat right and they will learn by your example. Having to feed children three meals a day should force you to broaden your eating horizons. Your children won't be healthy eating junk all day. I know it is tough to change eating habits, though. I've had...

    Too Busy

    We've been working on our farm and trying to get the house ready to move into. The remodel took longer than expected, mostly because we found termite damage when we took down the thirty year old paneling and had to rebuild some walls. We hope to move out there permanently within the month and are really looking forward to it. Driving back and forth...
  3. The doctor has said that it looks like you have celiac disease. You have the symptoms. Why are you still assuming that you don't have it?

    Day 4

    Going on and off gluten so quickly will not make any difference in your tests. You have to have been off gluten for at least six weeks for it to have any effect on your tests. If you are off gluten for an extended period of time and need to do a gluten challenge, you have to eat gluten for several days (maybe weeks, I don't remember). Also, you can...
  5. What's up with this new blog format? I don't like it at all. We have a restaurant near us called the Fish City Grill. I had eaten there a few times when they first opened up a couple of years ago, but they had very little gluten-free items on the menu. My daughter went there yesterday and found that they now have a gluten-free menu. She spoke with...

    Me And The Farm

    They're cute little donkeys. Not the miniature because they wouldn't be big enough to chase off coyotes, but still kind of smallish.

    Me And The Farm

    I've been super busy and haven't had time to make any new entries lately, but hey, I feel compelled to go for 10,000 hits since I'm so close. My husband and I have been renovating the house that we bought (on the 36 acres). We've bought our first goat. He's a character - like a pet dog. We also bought a couple of guard donkeys that don't seem to know...
  8. There are a couple of other places on this site you can go to for help. The discussion forum where other celiacs talk about doctors: https://www.celiac.com/forums/forum/6-doctors/ And a list of doctors by state that specialize in celiac disease:
  9. You've got "Michelle" down at the bottom of your post. Is that your name? That's my name, too.
  10. It sounds like you've really educated yourself in preparation for your step-daughter's arrival. I think that's great. It will be tricky having one celiac among a family of non-celiacs. Both of my children and I have it, so I was able to make my kitchen completely gluten-free. My husband eats whatever I buy and cook and he's fine with it. Every once in...

    Feelin' Groovy

    Well, this is something I had wanted to do while my kids were growing up so that we could learn together. I homeschooled my kids for several years and it would have been ideal to include gardening, etc. in their educations. But my husband, also a city boy, didn't want to do it at all. Plus, he had to be in the city for his job. Now he's more flexible...

    Cathy, all the best to you in your new venture. You're lucky to have a husband with farming experience. My husband and I have none, so we're just learning as we go and getting lots of advice from friends. We I planted a garden for the first time in my life and it is exciting to watch the little sprouts come up. We're making good progress...
  13. I'm not a doctor and am just going by what I've observed, read, and learned from my own doctor, so make sure you do talk to your doctor about these things. It seems that some nutrients are absorbed and some are not...otherwise, I suppose we'd all be deficient in all nutrients. I don't know why or how these things happen. Personally, I haven't been deficient...
  14. We all start out with a lot to learn. I saw on your profile that you are suffering with fatigue. Your doctor will, or perhaps already has checked your blood for B12 levels. If you are low on B12, that could be causing fatigue. You might want to mention it to him, just in case. If you are low, you can get B12 shots to boost you up back to normal. But...

    Haven't much to say these days. I've been feeling exceptionally well, so I must be doing something right. We bought 36 acres and are remodeling the house that is on it. We plan to move out there when the major renovation is done and the barn is built. We've decided on a tractor and will be buying it soon. We're going to try to be self-sufficient....
