Gluten-fried cheesecake sounds pretty darned good to me, too, and I'm not . . . . ;)

Nothing wrong with getting off-track . . . . seems as though every thread we're on gets that way eventually!

Karen is right about the wintergreen . . . .

Fried anything sounds good ... in fact, anything that's considered garbage sounds good ... doc has me eating very pure right now ... I think I'm treating myself to a bite of a gluten-free donut and a cup of coffee Sunday.

What was the topic anyway? Steve, where are you, this is your thread!

(Homer Simpson pops head in) ..."Mmmmm donuts"

What kind are you having?

I just ordered a case (really 3 boxes) of Kinnikinnick Chocolate glazed donuts from my co-op...they come in on Monday..."Mmmmm chocolate donuts"

Take it easy, don't fall off the wagon. I've never been able to eat just one donut!

We have kind of hijacked this thread (sorry!).

How about this.

The top 10 nice things we can say about Steve's hair.

I'll start.

10) Great color.

I won't fall off too far, I've got too many people who live in my house who are bigger than me ... they won't let me have more than about 1/4 of a donut, if I can talk them into that. It will be a Kinnikinnick with white frosting.

I have a coffee story that's way funnier than the Altoids thread ever was .... I just can't tell you all for a gazillion people to see ... let's just say, it's been a LONG time since I've had a cup of coffee and I'm very distracted by the thought of it ... my husband knows this fact ... and starts talking about it at the funniest times ... and no, nothing to do with Altoids ...

I hope it's going to be a good cup of coffee (fresh ground, quality beans, clean coffee maker, etc.). Would you care if it wasn't at this point?

All due to another day when I was completely distracted by having a cup of coffee. It was hysterical ... I was totally cracking up! :lol::lol: Is that a little clearer?

I'm going to go buy some fresh coffee on Saturday (I was eyeing some arabica beans at Wild Oats, don't tell my husband, don't want him to get jealous of the competition!!! :lol: ), some more Vance's Dari-free, and make it in my clean French press!! Is there another way to make coffee???? See why I miss it so much??? Where we used to live they know my name, my kids names, and they'd give me the employee discount at Starbucks!!!!

5) Probably looks cool on a motorcycle @ 60 mph

It doesn't seem like you've put very much thought into this... ;)

Will you be putting it in a travel mug, and heading over to Starbucks to complete the experience?

(cue Cheers theme song) :P

No ... if I wanted a cup of Starbucks, I'd go there!! I'm going to put it in my big, rounded Starbucks mug at home!!! I've been planning this for a week!

In fact, I had thought about doing it last week, but since I was feeling so much better, I chickened out. That could happen again this week. I might just be a lot of talk!

Single Serve Machine. It brews coffee using pressure and heat (not like a drip machine), more like how a real espresso machine at a real coffee joint works (with out hte bruning that starbucks does!)

This is the one I got : Open Original Shared Link

I got it free via a specail offer, and Im hooked! :D Draws alot more flavor out of the beans then drip does though so you realy need to use a better bean with it or you will not be happy.

Oh, no, another coffee gadget I don't have!!! I've had an espresso machine since before I ever heard of Starbucks. Mine's a Krup. Is that basically what yours is, or does it make coffee not espresso shots?

4) No roots

I can't get past the thought of a chocolate donut...not sure where I'll go from there...probably another chocolate donut...if I could only locate some gluten-free beer locally I might get crazy...and...and... show up late for work or something

Oh, and Morgan was here last night. This morning before she left, she emptied my freezer of coffee. My hubby asked me later if she had a french press in her dorm room ... I said, "Of course, and I gave her that thing you never use that heats up the water!"

Do you pressure cook your beans? Were you pressure cooking your wheat germ? What drugs are you taking? Some immunosuppressive drugs affect IgA production. Do...

      oops my gluten challenge was only 12 days It started Jan 21s and ended Feb 1st worst 12 days of my life Does not help that I also started on a thiazide-like drug for rule in/out renal calcium leak at the exact same time No clue if that could have been symptoms worse 🤔

      during the gluten challenge I did not consume any wheat germ   the wheat germ is TOASTED - it's the only way it is sold now afiak doesn't matter I consume vast amounts of lectin containing foods PROPERLY prepared and have for well over a decade. They do not bother me in the least.    no anemia however the endo who ordered the celiac panel is the one who suggested the 2 week gluten challenge of eating at least 2 slices of bread per day or a serving of pasta- ALSO put me on a new drug at the same time (not a good idea)  I ate 4 slices because they were thin, or 2 English muffins, and just once some lasagna that someone else made since I stopped eating wheat pasta years ago. The English muffins caused some of the worst symptoms but that pc of lasagna almost killed me ( not literally but the pain was extreme) during those 12 days there were at least 3 times I considered going to Urgent Care.   This entire process was a waste of time TBH due to being on that new drug at the exact same time. it is impossible to tell if the drug I am taking for the possible renal calcium leak is working or not- given the dramatic response to the gluten challenge and resulting nausea (no vomiting) and eventually a loss of appetite and lower intake of foods so now I have a dangerously low potassium level   I don't have a simple case of celiac or no- I have an extremely complicated case with multiple variables I am seeing an endocrinologist for a problem with the calcium sensing glands - that system is very complicated and she has been unable to give me a firm diagnosis after many tests with confusing and often alarming results. She also appears to be inexperienced and unsure of herself. but I don't have the luxury of finding a new endo due to multiple issues of insurance, lack of drs in my area, money and transportation. so I'm stuck with her At least she hasn't given up    in any case I can assure you that lectins are not and never were the problem. I know they are a favorite villain in some circles to point to, but I have ZERO symptoms from my NORMAL diet which DOES NOT contain gluten. The longer I went without bread or foods with wheat like raisin bran cereal, the better I have felt. my body had been telling me for several years that wheat was the problem- or maybe specifically gluten, that remains to be seen- and stopping eating it was the best thing I could have done   I almost had unnecessary MAJOR SURGERY due to joint pain that I ONLY have if I am eating bread or related products I assumed it was the refined grains - never really suspected gluten but it does not matter I won't put that poison in my body ever again not that it is literally poison but it is def toxic to me

      Welcome to the forum @Known1, What reaction were you expecting? Pipingrock.com High Potency Vitamin D3, 2000 IU, 250 Quick Release Softgels $6.89 I've have been taking the 10,000 IU for close to 10 years. When I started with vitamin D I worked my way up to 10000 over several weeks.  Even at 8000 I felt no noticeable difference.  Then after a few days at 10000 it hit Whoa, sunshine in a bottle.  celiac disease causes malabsorption of dietary D and you've poor UV access.  It took me from 2015 to 2019 to get my 25(OH)D just to 47 ng/ml.  Another two years to get to 80.  70 to 100 ng/ml seems to be the body's natural upper homeostasis  based on lifeguard studies.  Dr. Holick has observed the average lifeguard population usually has a vitamin D 3 level of around 100 ng/ml. Could it be that our normal range is too low given the fact that ¾ or more of the American population is vitamin D deficient? Your Calcium will increase with the vitamin D so don't supplement calcium unless you really need it.  Monitor with PTH  and 25(OH)D tests. Because of your Marsh 3 damage you need to ingest way more than the RDA of any supplement to undo your specific deficiencies. I believe you are in the goiter belt.  Unless you have reason not to, I recommend pipingrock's Liquid Iodine for price and quality.  The RDA is 150 to 1100 mcg.  In Japan the safe upper level is set at 3000 mcg.  Start with one drop 50 mcg to test for adverse response and build up.  I found 600 mcg (12 drops) a day is helping repair my body.  Iodine is necessary to healing.  90% of daily iodine intake is excreted in urine.  A Urine Iodine Concentration (UIC) can tell how much Iodine you got that day.  The thyroid TSH test will not show iodine deficiency unless it is really bad.
