Here is the application for a job in R-ville.

Are you gluten free? Yes, and proud of it!!

Do you promise to never infiltrate Rachelville with gluteney foods? Yes, of coarse!!

Do you promise to never bring gigantic Auxigro ridden produce into R-Ville? I do. (Raise right hand.)

Can I have a job now? :P

Ofcourse :D ....although that's not in my job description. I'm sure you'll have one soon B)

I just wanted to stop by Rachelville for a visit...and say HI. =)

I admit, I had no idea what Rachelville was, until I pm'd JerseyAngel. I didn't want to seem like a dork. But, someone much braver than I asked publicly.... and I must give that person Kudos!!!

So... HI! =)

Hello and welcome :D Don't worry about sounding like a dork....I do it all the time.

Hi everyone, glad to find that Rachelville continues joyfully. I am so impressed by how graciously these growing pains have been handled.

My computer is still not working as far as this site goes. Is anyone else running Windows 2000? Yesterday I felt just horrible about it and my sweetie actually offered to leave his work computer for me but I said no, I'll be O.K. :(

Oh gosh...I might go through BAD withdrawal if my computer died, yikes!

Na, you just delegate, delegate, delegate! There are certainly enough people around here to delegate to!! And my rule is delegate to the youngest one who can do a task ... that way the older kids don't get overburdened and neither do I!

I finally got a pic on where you can see a little better, so the name order is now wrong.

It was a wedding shower for one of her friends, so she didn't pick the place. Since she went gluten-free on her own just because she feels better, she doesn't worry about cc like we do ... but she generally just eats before she leaves the house so she can avoid gluten. Her friends are getting used to her watching them eat. All I can say is she must REALLY feel better to be so diligent about it!! Well ... her severe seasonal allergies have completely gone away, so I guess that's her motivation.

Pink and Purple....hmmmmm....I dont recall liking those colors as a child. <_< Am I the only girl who didnt go crazy for pink and purple ribbons?? :unsure:

Nope! I don't really like purple. And I didn't like pink very much until a few years ago....and I'm "old"!! :rolleyes:

My room was painted yellow when I was a kid. Bright and cheerful!! :D

Cool!!!! You can help construct all our patios in Rachelville, lol! Horse training might come in handy too as we're trying to round up the stray dingos and geese. Andrea? (Andrea is the keeper of the town list)

Well it was about a month or less after I decided to go gluten free....so I made the exception and ate a glutened meal at Tumbleweed :ph34r: I didn't want to make a big deal since first of all, I just started going gluten free and nobody really got it. And secondly, at that point I wasn't sure if I would continue to remain that way. All my friends understand it now....and they're pretty used to it. Not only that, but I have another friend who just started going gluten free a couple of days ago bc she's having problems and aren't sure what they are from.

Yes my allergies are a huge reason that I keep this up. But I also have other little things that help. :D

Jayhawkmom,

Come back anytime. If you want to be a regular and have a job....let us know.....application is on page 1.....very easy. For those that aren't gluten free we have a deglutenizing chamber. :lol:

I could put you on as Town Maintenance; Construction Worker; Trail Ride Guide if you are interested.

What kind of horses did you train? Cursious minds want to know.......I LOVE :wub: horses!

Hello everyone! :D

It's good to see you found us Dave.

Carla and Morgan.....oops on the picture. I just saw the similar face picture and didn't even look at the name. I like both the new pictures. :)

Picard.......yes, picture please.

Rachel,

Why do I think his bark is worse then his bite? Afterall he didn't say anything about the orange jug.

Donna,

I'm here and I'll get the town list up soon, at least the addons.

My daughter had a super rough time going to sleep last night. We let her stay up til around 9/9:30 since her daddy was leaving and she didn't go to sleep til around 12 because she was worried about me going to bed before she went to sleep. I tried telling her numerous times that if she went to sleep I would be up til after she went to sleep. Then the baby woke up at 6:30, I had covered him up and he decided it was time to get up. He can pull himself to standing so that is great fun. I ignored him and he finally settled down again but I didn't look at the clock. I will be quite surprised if hubby gets home tonight....his driving hours won't allow for it so if he did it would be the middle of the night. His driving time has got to be close to done now, probably another hour or two. If he takes his required time off then he wouldn't be able to start again until later tonight and I'm guessing he'd only be 8-10 hours from his next drop. So he'll probably drive through the night again....gonna totally mess up his normal sleep time.

I see you Luke's Mom! Hello, come on in!

Jessica,

We need your interests as well unless you just want to be a visitor. :P

      results from 13 day gluten challenge - does this mean I can't have celiac?

      @catnapt, Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract. They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows. Even beans have lectins. You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract. You may want to allow your digestive tract...

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg). Both are gluten free and free of other allergens. I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25". It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA. It's a powder form of Vitamin A. ...

      I wouldn't consider this lucky. I can NOT tolerate the symptoms. And I googled it and I was not even getting 10 grams of gluten per day and I was extremely ill. They'd have to put me in the hospital. I'm not kidding. I will have my first appt with a GI dr on March 4th I will not eat gluten again - at least not on purpose ...

      @catnapt,  Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract.  They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows.   Even beans have lectins.  You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract.   You may want to allow your digestive tract to rest for a week, then start on gluten in "normal" food, not in concentrated vital wheat gluten. This explains it well: Lectins, agglutinins, and their roles in autoimmune reactivities https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25599185/

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg).   Both are gluten free and free of other allergens.  I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25".  It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA.  It's a powder form of Vitamin A.  I was having trouble digesting fats at one point, but found I tolerated the powder form much better and have stuck with it since.   Tryptophan and Vitamin A help heal the intestines as well as improves skin health.  I get Dermatitis Herpetiformis and eczema flairs when my stomach is upset.  So I'm healing the outside as well as the inside.   I take one 1000 mg Tryptophan before bedtime.   With the Thiamine HCl, take 100 mg to start.  If you don't notice anything, three hours later take another. You can keep increasing your dose in this manner until you do notice improvement.  Remember not to take it in the evening so it won't keep you too energized to sleep. When I first started Thiamine HCl, taking 500 mg to 1000 mg to start was recommended.  If you've been thiamine insufficient for a while, you do notice a big difference.  It's like the start of a NASCAR race: Zoom, Zoom, turn it up!   This scared or made some people uncomfortable, but it's just your body beginning to function properly, like putting new spark plugs in your engine.  I took 1000 mg all at once without food.  It kicked in beautifully, but I got a tummy ache, so take with food.  I added in Thiamine TTFD and Benfotiamine weeks later and felt like I was Formula One racing.  So cool.  You may feel worse for a couple days as your body adjusts to having sufficient thiamine.  Feels sort of like you haven't cranked your engine for a while and it backfires and sputters, but it will settle down and start purring soon enough.  Adjust your dose to what feels right for you, increasing your dose as long as you feel improvement.  You can reach a plateau, so stay there for several days, then try bumping it up again.  If no more improvements happen, you can stay at the plateau amount and experiment with increasing your Thiamine TTFD.  It's like being your own lab rat.  LoL Yes, take one Benfotiamine at breakfast and one at lunch.  Take the B Complex at breakfast. Take the TTFD at breakfast and lunch as well.  I like to take the vitamins at the beginning of meals and the NeuroMag at the end of meals.   You may want to add in some zinc.  I take Thorne Zinc 30 mg at breakfast at the beginning of the meal.   Are you getting sufficient Omega Threes?  Our brains are made up mostly of fat.  Flaxseed oil supplements, sunflower seed oil supplements (or eat the seeds themselves) can improve that.  Cooking with extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil, or coconut oil is also helpful.   @Wheatwacked likes phosphotidyl choline supplements for his Omega Threes.  He's also had dramatic health improvement by supplementing thiamine.  You're doing great!  Thank you for sharing your journey with us.  This path will smooth out.  Keep going!
