I can't wait for the season premiere. There are supposed to be a couple of catch-up episodes coming up soon. I can't remember the dates!

OMG--I can't wait, either! I love that show :D

Count me in! It's one of my favorite shows. I like reading all the spoilers to see what's going to happen, even though that kind of ruins the fun :)

A link to the spoilers please?

My husband prides himself on being able to predict stuff on that show. Messing with him would be a lot of fun for me....

Yeah, what's up with the 4 toed statue? I almost fell of the couch when Sayid said, " I don't know what is more disquieting -- the fact that the rest of the statue is missing, or that it has 4 toes?"

If you really must ruin it for yourself...here is the ABC board with countless links to other sites

It all makes sense now! DHARMA is actually the FOX network and the prison break cast are the "OTHERS"! I guess there's no need to watch another minute :P

I get a lot of my good spoilers from Kristin at Eonline. She does chats every Monday that are transcribed on Tuesdays and sometimes she mentions stuff in her columns, which are posted on Fridays. I find she has the most reliable stuff out there.

Happy spoiling!

I watch the ABC plot board. There is inevitably some supposed "insider" who emerges every season and posts the whole episode in detail Weds. afternoon. Kind of takes the fun out of it, but with all of the re-runs I can't take the anticipation - I can't wait! I guess this season they are starting later, running 7 or 8 epi's taking a break of a few weeks and then running straight thru to May with new epi's. Less re-runs are better if you ask me.

jmengert Enthusiast

Oh, great, now another place to go to spoil me :)

I agree--I like having the episodes in sets so that way there are fewer reruns throughout the year; Lost can get complicated, so hopefully it will be easier to follow this way, too.

jerseyangel Proficient

Yes! I was so glad to hear that they will run a series of episodes, take a break, and run the rest of them with no reruns. I agree it's hard enough to follow, and having a rerun or 4 in between makes it worse! :blink:

luvs2eat Collaborator

Yea, I'm an ABC board reader too. I LOVE the show and can't wait to read the spoilers the next day to see all the little things I totally missed!!

Green12 Enthusiast

I used to hang out on a few of those boards and read all the theories, it made me crazy so I stopped :lol:

TriticusToxicum Explorer

Here's the tentative schedule. The catch-up show is Weds. this week!

Good to know, thanks Richard for the info.

I need a refresher before the new season starts so I am glad they are running this first.

jerseyangel Proficient

I do too, Julie--it's been so long since the last new episode.

myserenityprayer Explorer

My boyfriend and I cannot wait!!! The best thing that has ever happened to our love for Lost has been getting Tivo. Now we can rewind, fast forward, pause, go in slow motion, and not believe each other when we swear we see a clue in the background. I cannot wait. lostpedia.com is the best spoiler site i've seen.

tracey* Rookie

We have to wait for Lost until next FEBRUARY (2007), and I hate being spoiled (and can't download episodes fast enough) so you won't see me in this thread soon :P

I looove Lost.

The way it screens here is all the way through, new episode every week (with the exception of maybe 1 or 2 reruns depending on timing between stations in ratings periods). That's why we wait until February I guess ...

Some spoilers to wet your appetite...

Don't look if you don't want to know!

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      @catnapt,  I apologize.  Obviously I've confused you with someone else.  I have vision problems due to undiagnosed Celiac complications.  Being legally blind, y'all look the same from here.   You still have not said which new medication you started taking.  Parathyroid disorders can affect antibody production.  Bone Loss Correlated with Parathyroid Hormone Levels in Adult Celiac Patients https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36619734/ Effect of vitamin B1 supplementation on bone turnover markers in adults: an exploratory single-arm pilot study https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12075007/

      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

      @catnapt,  I'm sorry you're having such a rough time.   How much wheat germ and how much gluten were you eating? Lectins in beans can be broken down by pressure cooking them.  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 you have anemia?
    • catnapt
      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 🤔

      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.
