I still wanna eat McDonalds everyday. :ph34r:

I would never ever do it....not even for one day but deep down....the desire for a Big Mac, chicken nuggets, fries and cheeseburger is still there....and yes, Supersize Me.....puleeeeze.

I am soooooo bad arent I. :(

No, you are not bad. My husband would die for some good McDonalds food but it's okay for him to want it because I know he would never be foolish enough to go himself a Big Mac.

Bad is not wanting to, bad is giving in! Wanting to & refraining means you are soooooo GOOD!

I never really watched the show -- when I did I thought the character of Joey was funny. Now Rachel ... different reason to watch. :D

:lol::lol::lol:

Oh, and I love rollerblading....disappearing for a couple hours on rollerblades=fun times around the town

I was completely dairy free today :) so if I'm sick tomorrow....everyone knows why.....let's hope not though. It will probably be like the gluten....I won't really notice a difference until I go back to it :wacko:

Very good point Leah!

Good luck Morgan on going dairy free. I've made it about a month now, and feeling pretty good. I don't have near the mucous build up as I did, so that has to be a good sign :lol:

Uh oh! You may risk cross contamination from me from time to time since my husband is the celiac one. For the most part I am gluten free but unlike Bill, I can cheat from time to time if my daughter wants to order pizza or something. However, we doctored up some Amy's gluten free pizza the night before last & then I took the leftovers for the lunch the next day & it was YUMMY!

That is what our deglutenizing chamber is for, and the gluten sniffing Dingo dogs, and protective geese, and probably the purple glittery bats come in to play here on some level. :lol:

For those wondering --- I am not gluten free yet --- darn doctors -- more testing to go. So, still have the same issues as previous posts. Yes, I did feel better on the gluten-free diet but, my family hx as previousy posted requires I get all the testing done. Hopefully done and over with by the end of September.

Omgosh, I just noticed this. Picard, you are not gluten-free yet??? Shocked! I just assumed you were.....

:lol: Chandler is def. one of my favs, Ross is pretty funny too though.... It's hard to pick one favorite because they play off each other so well, the whole group is funny.

I dont like Phoebe :ph34r:

That one was funny, and the teeth whitening as mentioned already....hmm, remember when they poked ugly naked guy to see if he was still alive? Hmm, or when Chandler took a bath (with Monica's salts/candles)? That one was hilarious. Move the boat, move the boat!

:lol::lol:

All great moments, here's a couple more-

I love when Joey put on Phoebe's maternity pants to eat an entire turkey.

I LOVE when they do the flashbacks and Ross and Chandler are dressed up like the Miami Vice guys, or Chandler's Flock of Seagulls hair style :lol::lol:

Julie,

I didn't realize Picard wasn't gluten free either. I thought he had other food intolerances.

New picture again everyone.j

We are Racheling some ice cream tonight. :ph34r: Still looking to buy an ice cream maker and use alternate milk products......somehow. Maybe dairy occassionaly. I just ordered some raw cheese to try. :blink: Maybe that won't be so bad since it isn't pastuerized.

Hi Dan and celiac3270,

Are you two going to join us?

Hi Linda,

Good to see you again. :P

Hi Linda,

Good to see you again. :P

OH! Now we're spying on people?

I can't figure out how to do two quotes, but I hope the dingoes are friendly. I had Eggos for breakfast. (I did brush my teeth!) Mostly I sneak gluten when Ty's not around. He doesn't usually seem to care, but I try not to wave it in his face. His brother on the other hand...gluten with extra gluten sprinkled on top, please.

As far as a Rachelville job...I can edit, p.a. and direct the Rachelville TV News. If there is such a show. You'd need someone to shoot, report and anchor it though.

We have Good Morning Canada (a rather boring cross-Canada Saturday morning talk show) coming to our affiliate in September. I have already pitched Celiac Awareness Month for October with 3 or 4 ideas and today our assignment editor sent a shooter to catch the Cycling for Celiac group coming into town. Unfortunately they rode too fast, so we didn't get them cycling, but at a restaurant eating. Edmonton will have to send someone out on Sunday to get them coming home. It was a ten-day ride from Victoria, BC through the Rockies to Calgary and then up to Edmonton.

Ok, Julie: Make your list, and everyone can make lists and we can compare and then maybe meet up and take a trip! I am game for it!!!! :D:D:D

OK, here is my list-

Other than what I mentioned before, visiting every state to see beautiful things (i.e. Blue Ridge Mtns), I want to also:

Go all over Mexico, Canada, Ireland, Scotland, England, Spain, and Greece to name a few

Learn to in-line skate/ice skate

Go roller skating again!

Take up golf, again!

Take up skiing, again!

Run in a marathon ( a short one :lol: )

Try rock climbing

Hike some well known place (?)

Learn more Spanish, dang it!

Learn to sew

Grow a garden

And that's about all I can think of for now :D (I'm sure I am leaving some things out....)

What is everybody elses 'to do' in this lifetime list???

<---- Fixed red hair!!!

*phew* Glad that's over!! :)

It looks great to me, love it!!!

But I think you are right, a picture in natural light would give us a better sense of the color.

I can't figure out how to do two quotes, but I hope the dingoes are friendly.

The dingo girls are very friendly, they are such a big part of Rachelville :) We love them and their Dingo wrangler Susie Q!!!!

Sounds like a perfect job for you :)

Celia is/was our newscaster....need to see if she is still interested. Morgan is our newswriter. You can edit and direct the shows.

What's p.a.? :unsure:

Julie,

P.A. Production Assistant. It mostly consists of counting backwards. 30. 15. 10, 9, 8, etc. "super in" "lose super". A super is the thingy that has the guys name on who is talking. So if Andrea B is talking about reading labels for 4 hours her first trip to the grocery after diagnosis, a graphic would come on underneath Andrea's face that says: Andrea B/Recently Diagnosed with Celiac or Andrea B/Thinks Gluten Sucks or something like that.

It's the perfect job really. I'm very bossy and so as the director I tell people what to do and they HAVE to do it. It's their job to listen to me. (I direct the late news 4x a week.)

I'm at work right now. I have to go edit a story about more and more pets getting sent to the Humane Society because of the lack of housing here and especially pet friendly housing.

You mean new picture of the fellas? It's from July at Stampede. I have one from holidays I have to put up soon.

Rachel,

I'm so glad you had such a good time!

I've got a restless baby on my hands, although he's in his crib. :P It doesn't do me much good to go to sleep because I'll just drift off and he's fussing again. Poor thing. :( I hope some teeth break through soon.

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      Try adding some Thiamine Hydrochloride (thiamine HCl) and see if there's any difference. Thiamine HCl uses special thiamine transporters to get inside cells. I take it myself. Tryptophan will help heal the intestines. Tryptophan is that amino acid in turkey that makes you sleepy after Thanksgiving dinner. I take mine with magnesium before bedtime...

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

      I am doing a gluten challenge right now and I bought vital wheat gluten so I can know exactly how much gluten I am getting. One tablespoon is 7g so 1½ tablespoons of Vital Wheat Gluten per day will get you to 10g You could add it to bean burgers as a binder or add to hot chocolate or apple sauce and stir.

      @catnapt, Wheat germ has very little gluten in it.  Gluten is  the carbohydrate storage protein, what the flour is made from, the fluffy part.  Just like with beans, there's the baby plant that will germinate  ("germ"-inate) if sprouted, and the bean part is the carbohydrate storage protein.   Wheat germ is the baby plant inside a kernel of wheat, and bran is the protective covering of the kernel.   Little to no gluten there.   Large amounts of lectins are in wheat germ and can cause digestive upsets, but not enough Gluten to provoke antibody production in the small intestines. Luckily you still have time to do a proper gluten challenge (10 grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks) before your next appointment when you can be retested.
