I learned how to walk in heels when I was 7 in shows, and now i can walk in like 6-inch with no pain!

just get the feet numb, and it wont hurt!

:lol::lol:

I gotta wait till I'm on my home computer....and then I have to wait for a moment in time that I'm not feeling too lazy. :rolleyes:

Possibly, this weekend....depending on the histamine levels and brainfeeze factors. :P

I never really wear dresses....only for special events. My mom getting married qualified....I'm just soooo thankful that I didnt trip or anything like that. I havent had much practice in heels so it was a tiny bit scary.

Yep, that would be pretty embarassing. :ph34r:

If I pm you to death will you change it.....or just ignore my pms? :lol:

One time he called my dad and pretended to be the power company ... it was snowing like mad, and my grandfather had seen that on the news. He asked my dad to walk around the corner to see if the street light was on, so when my dad got back after trapsing in the snow, got on the phone and told grandpa it was on, grandpa said, "Well, blow it out you dummy!"

:lol::lol:

Too funny Carla!!

Rachel you for sure need a new PIC, please, you have had that one forever! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LOL....ummm is since January considered forever?? :lol:

Yeah....I suppose it has been awhile. I switched it a few times but then I got attached to this one. :)

I think this was like my 4th avatar??

I'll put up the purple dress pic this weekend. ;)

went under my user name from google and by god i sent myself a pm

:angry::ph34r::ph34r::ph34r:

I'm going to bed and pull the covers up and hide.

oie..

do a lot of people, outside of us here, know your user name?

I've googled jerseyangel :ph34r: and everything comes up--but that wouldn't happen with 'patti'.

No one--oh my God--except everyone who has my email address--knows my username :o

I haven't decided yet Andrea, are you going to change yours?

I did a search and they would have to put in "Julie +Celiac" to find me, not just Julie...so I dont know :unsure::unsure:

Probably not. Since I have my last initial it is harder to find me. There are a lot of Andrea's out there. If I type in my name and celiac there isn't even anything on the first page from this forum. Not many people go beyond the first page of google.....except my hubby. :P

I'm not really too concerned about it. As long as we don't broadcast info that can be used for identity theft (which we don't), we should be safe. Also, for those of you that have email available, I would recommend turning it off. The Dave would be one of those. Julie I forget if you were one. I feel it is safer to just give your email to those you want to have it and let everyone else pm you. I pm people 99% of the time anyway.

Speaking of avatars...

<------ Check THAT out!!!!

I've been walking around like that since Saturday. Wasn't supposed to be that color...that's what I get for being too naturally red and trying to get my hair dyed a different color red. Back to the hair lady tomorrow :blink:

i don't think there are enough numbers to count to how many avatars i have had..................

I enjoy that...it keeps us up to date with Molly :P

:lol::lol::lol:

I am the same way! I live in running shoes and cross-trainers, or thongs, definitely everything flat, or at least nothing over a 2 inch wide heel. When I was in my brother's wedding I thought I was going to trip for sure going down the aisle in my bride's maid's heels.

:lol: Whenever I say thongs, all my kids think I'm talking about underwear!! :lol:

I like the color, never done anything with my hair no dye, no highlights, just natural highlights from the sun.

I have too much time and too many pictures on my computer to deal with...........................

I'm trying to remember the last time I wore high heels.... :unsure:

You guys are funny, I wear high-heels frequently!! Adam like them, so whenever we go out, and I usually wear them to Church, unless I'm feeling crummy (I play flute, so I always feel obligated to wear a skirt). And I mean HIGH heels!! And I'm tall to begin with!

Rachel--24 Collaborator

I told a couple people about Rachelville.......I highly recommend not doing this. I think its like the 2nd or 3rd hit that will come up on a search. :blink:

I googled "Rachel" and "Gluten" once and it brought me straight to the board. :o

Chelsea,

I like your wedding pics. I still like seeing you even if you don't like the color. Repost when you get it redone. One more week....are you dancing in the streets yet? :P

What's the matter with it? I think it's very pretty--in the picture, anyway.

It looks very soft and feminine B)

(I had to edit out the arrow, it looked like I was pointing at myself)

in my avatar i am not wearing heels and my cuz is wearing like 5' heels and i am still taller, i was being nice!

that's what happened to me..you could see where I was on the forum and god forgid..you could click on the email i guess without registering on celiac.com???? now that's scarey if true.

oie

how hard is it to change now.

at least my picture isn't here.

breathe judy breathe.

For me it was just that my name is so different it wouldn't take a genius to figure it out. I just tried Tavi again and was able to get my profile, listing where I live, email, d.o.b. etc. kind of scary, but haven't decided if I will do anything more about it, what are the chances someone would want to come looking for me for anything bad, unless there is some kind of stalker that liked old women! :lol::lol::lol: Well, guess there could be and now I am scared :o:o:o

Where is Susan the Dingo girl? Something has changed here!

For some reason, I thought you were blonde ... it's a little bright, are you getting lots of looks? It's hard to tell from a pic, but if your getting looks, it might need to be redone!!

Molly I wish I had some of your height

If I type in my name and celiac, something comes up on the 2nd page. Same thing for my name and gluten.

      I've been buying my seeds and nuts from Prana Organics for a number of years because the products have been GFCO-certified. I just got a new order delivered of their flax and sunflower seeds, and it turns out that they are no longer GFCO-certified. Instead, it just has a generic "Gluten Free" symbol on the package. I reached out to them to ask what protocols/standards/testing they have in place. The person that wrote back said that they are now certifying their gluten free status in-house, but that she couldn't answer my questions related to standards because the person with that info was on vacation. Not very impressed, especially since it still says on their website that they are GFCO-certified. Buyer beware!

      Hi @Dizzyma I note what @trents has commented about you possibly posting from the UK.  Just to let you know that am a coeliac based in the UK, so if that is the case, do let me know if can help you with any questions on the NHS provision for coeliacs.    If you are indeed based in the UK, and coeliac disease is confirmed, I would thoroughly recommend you join Coeliac UK, as they provide a printed food and drink guide and also a phone app which you can take shopping with you so you can find out if a product is gluten free or not. But one thing I would like to say to you, no matter where you live, is you mention that your daughter is anxious.  I was always a bit of a nervous, anxious child but before my diagnosis in mid-life my anxiety levels were through the roof.   My anxiety got steadily better when I followed the gluten-free diet and vitamin and mineral deficiencies were addressed.  Anxiety is very common at diagnosis, you may well find that her anxiety will improve once your daughter follows a strict gluten-free diet.

      Welcome to the celic.com community @Dizzyma! I'm assuming you are in the U.K. since you speak of your daughter's celiac disease blood tests as "her bloods".  Has her physician officially diagnosed her has having celiac disease on the results of her blood tests alone? Normally, if the ttg-iga blood test results are positive, a follow-up endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel lining to check for damage would be ordered to confirm the results of "the bloods". However if the ttg-iga test score is 10x normal or greater, some physicians, particularly in the U.K., will dispense with the endoscopy/biopsy. If there is to be an endoscopy/biopsy, your daughter should not yet begin the gluten free diet as doing so would allow healing of the small bowel lining to commence which may result in a biopsy finding having results that conflict with the blood work. Do you know if an endoscopy/biopsy is planned? Celiac disease can have onset at any stage of life, from infancy to old age. It has a genetic base but the genes remain dormant until and unless triggered by some stress event. The stress event can be many things but it is often a viral infection. About 40% of the general population have the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. So, for most, the genes remain dormant.  Celiac disease is by nature an autoimmune disorder. That is to say, gluten ingestion triggers an immune response that causes the body to attack its own tissues. In this case, the attack happens in he lining of the small bowel, at least classically, though we now know there are other body systems that can sometimes be affected. So, for a person with celiac disease, when they ingest gluten, the body sends attacking cells to battle the gluten which causes inflammation as the gluten is being absorbed into the cells that make up the lining of the small bowel. This causes damage to the cells and over time, wears them down. This lining is composed of billions of tiny finger-like projections and which creates a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients from the food we eat. This area of the intestinal track is where all of our nutrition is absorbed. As these finger-like projections get worn down by the constant inflammation from continued gluten consumption before diagnosis (or after diagnosis in the case of those who are noncompliant) the efficiency of nutrient absorption from what we eat can be drastically reduced. This is why iron deficiency anemia and other nutrient deficiency related medical problems are so common in the celiac population. So, to answer your question about the wisdom of allowing your daughter to consume gluten on a limited basis to retain some tolerance to it, that would not be a sound approach because it would prevent healing of the lining of her small bowel. It would keep the fires of inflammation smoldering. The only wise course is strict adherence to a gluten free diet, once all tests to confirm celiac disease are complete.

      Hi all, I have so many questions and feel like google is giving me very different information. Hoping I may get some more definite answers here. ok, my daughter has been diagnosed as a coeliac as her bloods show anti TTG antibodies are over 128. We have started her  on a full gluten free diet. my concerns are that she wasn’t actually physically sick on her regular diet, she had tummy issues and skin sores. My fear is that she will build up a complete intolerance to gluten and become physically sick if she has gluten. Is there anything to be said for keeping a small bit of gluten in the diet to stop her from developing a total intolerance?  also, she would be an anxious type of person, is it possible that stress is the reason she has become coeliac? I read that diagnosis later in childhood could be following a sickness or stress. How can she have been fine for the first 10 years and then become coeliac? sorry, I’m just very confused and really want to do right by her. I know a coeliac and she has a terrible time after she gets gluttened so just want to make sure going down a total gluten free road is the right choice. thank you for any help or advise xx
