OMgosh I thought last night's episode was so fantastic :lol:

They still present so many questions to few answers (i.e. how does Jack and Claire's dad, Christian, fit in to all of this?), but it seems we are moving forward so much more than we have in past seasons.

Julie--I agree....both this week and last week were great. They are finally moving the story forward, and it's ever so much earier to follow.

I couldn't wait to see who would be in Jacob's house--I guess this confirms that Claire is dead since she said she was

"with him" meaning her father.

How creepy was the "orderly" with John in the hospital?.....could he be Jacob? :unsure: He also appeared at the facility that Hurley was in and somewhere else I can't remember.

Oh gosh--speaking of creepy--that guy who was at the door when John was in the hospital as an infant and came back to test him as a child. He looked scared when John identified the things he showed him, even though he said that the knife didn't belong to him. OMG--and the drawing of the smoke killing a person :o

Can't WAIT for next week--the previews look good :)

That is what I read at some of the blog sites Patti, the theory that "some" people on the island might be dead already, i.e. Claire, and some others....but I won't spoil it :lol:

The orderly was that creepy guy that visited Hurley the mental facility after they get off the island, as the Oceanic 6. Also he was involved with putting the "rescue" group together (Naomi, Miles, Charlotte, Daniel, and the helicopter pilot)

Did you recognize that mystery guy who visited Locke as a child? He is one of the "Others", the one who sort of mentored Ben, and from what it seemed like at the time influenced him to kill his father and all of the Dharma initiative members. He was shown in flash backs to when Ben was a child and looked the same then as he did present day, he hadn't aged at all.

Another thing I noticed, that drawing young Locke had done that was hanging on the wall was of the smoke monster!

Thanks! We couldn't place him, but I remember now the scenes of when Ben was young and the whole thing with his father. That was the same guy....interesting.

OMG Julie...I was going to post here about the finale, and just hadn't gotten to it.

I'm really looking forward to tonight :D

Has anyone else noticed that on the show's logo the area above the word "Lost" is an island and the area below is a city? We just noticed that recently. :huh:

On the commercials for the show. At the end, the word "Lost" appears in front of an island. Mirrored in the ocean below the word, instead of a reflection of the island above, it's the skyline of a city.

Mark noticed it first, and we replayed the commercial (TiVo) and there it was.

Ok, last night's finale made my wee brain hurt!!! :lol::lol:

So much was going on....I'm still not quite sure what I think about it, once again it presented sooooo many questions that will probably take the next 3 seasons to be slowly answered and revealed :rolleyes: Ugh!

What a whirlwind!

jerseyangel Proficient

So, what did ya'll think?

We really enjoyed the show last night--the surprise ending was something! Now the long wait until it returns.

lol Patti, we must have been posting at the same time.

I am excited for next season to see how this all unfolds.

:blink:

you think you guys are confused? Try not watching it for the last 8 weeks, watch the finale, and THEN see how you feel......

:lol:

I don't even have enough of an idea as to what's going on to.......even formulate intelligent questions..... :huh:

So how did Locke die?

What "terrible things" happened on the island after Jack left?

What's up with Sun's husband? Is he dead or alive? I was thinking he was alive, and maybe she didn't know it, for a while because of that scene in the episode where she was giving birth and he was in China? getting that panda.

And I assumed "freckles" was visiting Sawyer after they got back to L.A.

I wonder if Ben has to get everyone to go back to the island in order for him to be able to go back?

Oh, and what happened to the little time travel guy? I forgot his name and lost him in the drama.

OK those are my thoughts and questions... for now.

Green12 Enthusiast

Yeah Susie, I would say you had to be completely lost watching last night :lol:

Missys mom, lots and lots of questions...that I don't know the answer to either! I like to read the Lost Diary, lots of smarties on there putting some of the things together....I think it's thelostdiary.com

I got a little teary I have to admit when they left Jin behind, that was hard to see.

Daniel Faraday is the guys name in the zodiak thingy, the physicist guy. I don't know if they got moved with the island too because they seemed to bejust off shore...or are they now somewhere in the middle of nowhere?

And that was a little creepy when Miles was talking to Charlotte about trying so hard to get back here (so I take it she has been to the island before?)...then she says she was born here, what???

Hurley playing chess with Mr Ecko, Ben surprising Jack at the funeral home, and Locke in the coffin......SUPER creepy!

Sawyer jumping, I had a feeling he was going to do that.

I like Sawyer more and more and Jack less and less for some reason. Jack has too much pride I think and just barks orders without really thinking anything through, of course I might change my mind about that in the near future :lol:

I also can't wait to see what they plan to do with Sun and her father's company.....another thing I loved last night was the reunion of Penny and Desmond. Of course, Penny is Widmore's daughter.....more intrigue :D

missy'smom Collaborator

I loved the gumption that Sun had taking charge with her father and approaching Widmore! I wanted to say You Go Girl!

I know! I didn't know she had it in her :lol:

Green12 Enthusiast

I meant to comment, what was it 3 weeks ago?, about Sun standing up to her father. I was like, "Go Sun"!!!

I am afraid though things are going to be ugly next season between Sun and possibly Jack, I think he might be the other one she blames for Jin's death. Also if she is teaming up with Widmore, that would mean they are going up against Ben and Sayid, right?

So I am totally bummed!!!! I watched the finale on high def and they had some weird delay/replay thing almost halfway through, I have now found out I missed about 10 minutes of the show :o I didn't see the part with Walt so i am going to have to watch it online at ABC to see the parts I missed.

If I'm not mistaken, Sun giving birth and Jin getting the panda were two different time periods. Sun giving birth was after she got off the island, and Jin getting the panda was when he was working for her father and trying to "suck up" to another businessman who had just gotten a new baby (pre-crash). If I'm mistaken, someoone please jump in and correct me!!! :huh:

Nope--you're right! The scenes with Jin and the panda were flash backs that were juxtiposed with flash forwards of Sun having her baby.

Thanks for the response.

I thought that was a possibility but can't see what it contributes to the story line :huh: , other than to throw us off. :lol:

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      Are Bobresmill gluten free oats ok for sensitive celiacs?
    • jenniber
      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease does damage to the small bowel lining it often results in nutritional deficiencies such as anemia. NCGS does not damage the small bowel lining so your history of anemia may suggest you have celiac disease as opposed to NCGS. But either way, a gluten-free diet is in order. NCGS can cause bodily damage in other ways, particularly to neurological systems.
