Got some ice cream for hubbs, I don't remember the brand but it was a good one. I made sure there was no HFCS in it or any corn products for that matter. Anyhoo I decided to try some, they were lil pint sized tubs. I ate a half pint. So I waited and waited for the symptoms, usually I get swelling , gas, a run to the rest room or two ,with alot of pain. And guess what? No pain at all!! Nothing!! I noticed that butter was not bothering me. But ice cream?? Yummy!! So does that mean my Villi are healing? Ohhh I am so hoping so! This was so exciting for me!! I Am kinda hoping I get corn back. Because just about everything has corn in it! But if not thats ok! It just adds weight anyway. But I got Lactose back!!! Whoo Hoo!!

I won't go gun ho! But I will enjoy some now and then. Don't want to over do anything! I am testing the waters with corn products. No HFCS but a lil bit of corn product I think is ok. If it bothers me I just won't eat it for a while again. I am so happy with my weight loss! My gut is still swollen some but nothing like it used to be. I hope it goes down more. I have been doing so good on my new lifestyle change. It 's getting easier and easier to eat at parties and such. I am going to Mackinaw Island for 3 days soon. Going to bring a bag of snack goodies with me! LOL I'm sure it will be a Celiacs nightmare I went last year and ate alot of salads. This year I'm gunna test the waters a lil more.

Thanks! Yup going easy :) I went to a restaurant today, Chili's and well got a gluten-free steak with Mashed Potatoes and a nice veggie. Umm it came with a slice of bread on the top. Ugh! They put the bread on the wrong steak. So back it went. I ended out getting my steak and yup it was yummy! Because I was able to put some butter on it! Ohh my! Just a lil bit of gas but other than that I was fine! Unbelievable! A few months ago I was clarifying my butter! Ohhh the simple things in life!

Lactase pills might help you ease back into dairy.  

 

Mmmm, I love a well buttered, garlicky and peppered steak!

      Blood results

      Be sure to have her continue eating gluten before the biopsy. Reducing gluten now could lead to healing and false negative results.

      Struggling to get into a good pattern

      Allegra is an antihistamine.  Histamine is released by the body as part of the autoimmune and immune responses, so an antihistamine would be helpful.  Following the low histamine version of the AIP diet is helpful as well because there's also histamine in foods.  Sometimes our body has trouble getting rid of the histamine it makes and the histamine from our food.  Sometimes the mast cells that make and release histamine get touchy and release histamine at the slightest provocation.  Thiamine helps mast cells not to release histamine so readily.  Look into Mast Cell Activation Syndrome.  SIBO, small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, can also cause high histamine levels.  Following the low histamine AIP diet will starve out the bad SIBO bacteria that feed on carbohydrates we eat.  We don't want to take antibiotics because they kill off both the good and bad bacteria.  We don't want to take probiotics yet because the SIBO bacteria will outnumber them.   The AIP diet will allow the good bacteria to flourish.   Some have Candida infections as well as SIBO.   Lowering histamine levels is important because high histamine levels for a long time can lead to worsening health problems like Crohn's and colitis and other health problems.

      gluten-free Canada finds

      By JessicaAnderson · Posted

      Hey! My son will be traveling to Canada from the US next month. What are some items we should try to buy and bring back? I know Doritos are labeled gluten-free in Canada so that’s on our list, what else?

      Oh I have 2 dogs. And I just looked up the ingredients in their food and it does contain barley as a main ingredient. Maybe some other things too that aren't helpful but barley just caught my eye on a quick look.  And yes I spend lots of time with them, they're always cuddled up on me. I even have wondered before if I was allergic to them and I take Allegra at night out of some thought that maybe I was allergic to them (but I've never confirmed that).  Wow. This is very interesting. I could try putting them out on some grain-free food for a month and see if that helps. Thanks for the tip!

      Hi Thanks for answering so quickly. Not sure about any other blood tests, all I have is a copy of what my daughter sent to me. Hopefully she’ll get the biopsy soon cos she’s really anxious about the whole thing, but she tends to have a lot of anxiety anyway and has done for a long time
