Any "lost"-aholics Out There?

Did anybody watch last night's ep?

It just keeps getting more and more complex and it hurts my brain :lol:

One thing I think is interesting is that the first three seasons flashed back to before the crash, and starting with last year's season finale and into this season so far they are flashing forward to post island/present day surrounding the survivors (who are supposedly the only survivors), the "Oceanic 6".

Is there ANY point in tuning into this show if I've never ever watched it?

Would I be like this ---> :wacko:, or are you like that anyway?

Maybe I should get the dvd version and start from the beginning? LOL

Most likely you would be royally confused :lol::lol:

In all seriousness, I do get it most of the time, but it really makes you have to sit back and *think* and put things together.

Since they are doing it a little differently, flashing forward, you might kind of catch on if you start watching now, but I really do recommend, if you are interested in "getting LOST" :lol: , to get the DVD and start at the beginning and get all caught up and familiarize yourself with all the character backgrounds, storlylines, and etc.

There are lots of little details that you wouldn't be able to pick up on unless you do have the back story.

I did! As if it wasn't confusing enough, they go and add 4 new characters to the mix :lol:

I did notice that they only do flash-aheads, not flash-backs anymore.

Mango--I think this is a show that you really need to have watched from the get-go. It's hard for me to follow sometimes, and I've watched the whole time. It's a great show, though. If you do get the DVD, I bet you'll really enjoy it :)

I do have this face quite often when watching :blink: , but I just hang on and things always sort of make sense in time.

Who do you think is in the coffin?

Green12 Enthusiast

****SPOILERS BELOW IF YOU HAVEN'T WATCHED THE 2nd EP*****

I did! As if it wasn't confusing enough, they go and add 4 new characters to the mix :lol:

I know!

What a very interesting group of individuals that were assembled, a physicist, an archeologist, a ghost hunter, and a pilot???

What does it all mean ?!?!?

And even more interesting, the archeologist finds that thing with a Dharma initiative logo/emblem on a dig in Tunesia??

Green12 Enthusiast
Who do you think is in the coffin?

Hmmm, well at the funeral home, or whatever that place was, the guy asks Jack if the departed was "friend or family", and Jack says neither.

I'm wondering if it isn't Ben?

I don't know if Jack would have that response about any of the other survivors, even if he was at odds with some of them from time to time. But I could be wrong....

Maybe it is Locke? Or someone else that turns out to be not who we all think they are.

I think it could be anyone really, I guess at this time I really don't have a feel for a possibility.

Do you have any theories??

:lol: I'm quoting you again!

I saw the interview this morning--I thought he was so cute and charming, too. I've always hated his character on Lost, so I guess that makes him a great actor! :D

Looking forward to the episode tonight!

Ok, so last week's ep....I have been avoiding posting about it because I couldn't quite wrap my brain around what all was revealed, and didn't really know what to say :lol:

I guess Sayid is another one of the Oceanic 6 :lol: (along with Charlie, Kate, and Hurley, and we assume the person in the coffin makes #5??)

When they showed who his boss was at the end :o , I didn't see that coming at all. Creepy.

Something is weird with Naomi and Sayid, he kept looking at her body funny and was giving her an awful lot of attention.

I saw Terry O'Quinn (Locke) on The View this morning, he has such a twinkle in his eyes, so cute!

All he could say was "Jacob" so I guess we will find more out about this mysterious person, or whatever he is.

:blink:

OMG - after last week's episode, I was thinking of just fully breakup up with Lost. I have utterly NO idea what is going on.......and when things are THAT confusing they just aren't even.....fun any more. :huh:

:blink:

anybody? help? any other theories to add to Julie's?

Green12 Enthusiast
any other theories to add to Julie's?

You are so sweet, I didn't really add much of anything to begin with :lol:

I think what is shaping up to happen is we are going to find out about what exactly the island is and why exactly they all came to be there. I believe that is the purpose of the 4 new characters, or at least three of them (the archeologist, the physicist, and the ghost whisperer). Each of these 3 I believe hold the key to some of ther main mysteries on the island.

Did that help a little?

jerseyangel Proficient

I'm with you two girls on this last episode. I couldn't watch on Thursday night, so we didn't watch till Saturday--and I was more confused after than before :lol:

There was a connection between Naomi and Sayid's "girlfriend"--they had identical bracelets.

Not that I have any idea of what that means B)

Green12 Enthusiast

I can't believe it's already Thursday, and you know what that means...another new episode of Lost and most likely even more confusion :blink:

:lol:

It looks like they are re-airing last week's episode before the new one tonight. I missed it last week. Hope I can catch up.

jerseyangel Proficient

Well, I'll be watching....and preparing to be confused again :blink:

Judyin Philly Enthusiast

Julie.........Thanks to you I caught the 2 bracelets tonight. Sure didn't put that together the first time i watched it. Do you guys discuss it on Fridays or are there still people who haven't seen it yet? Was hoping to get some more tips when i watch it as I added it to my DVD list. My head was spinning by 9:00 and have the 'attention span of a gnat' :lol:

pixiegirl Enthusiast

I've been watching lost since the first episode but last season my attention drifted a bit so I might have missed some stuff. And I didn't go back and read all 14 pages of this thread, I hate then they get so long, I just don't have that much time.

I hope we find out more stuff this short season cuz I'm tired of being "Lost".

So because of the continual reference to the Oceanic 6 (or is it 8, LOL) not everyone makes it off the island, but we know now that Kate, Jack, Hurley and Aaron do. So who else do you think gets off.

My feeling is the others don't die, they choose to stay, certainly Sawyer does, he's already made that clear. Claire must die cuz she would never give up Aaron. And because in the court case last night Jack said that only 6 of them survived the crash and we know that's not true so I'm betting a whole lot of people elect to stay on the island.

What else do we know?

Susan

That was Patti that mentioned the bracelets, she deserves all the credit :lol: I only noticed Sayid was acting strange around Naomi's body, but Patti cued in on the bracelets, I didn't even remember Desmond's gluten-free (Penny) had one too :huh:

You are not alone, my head was spinning too :lol:

When Richard was here he always got the conversation going, he was really good at that. Also he always found all the spoiler links and Lost factoids :lol:

Susan, Sayid is also one of the Oceanic 6. Kate, Jack, Hurley, Sayid, and the person who died and is in the coffin, and I assume Aaron, makes 6.

But I am wondering if they count Aaron in the "6" since he was born on the island? So there could be another unknown.....That was kind of creepy at the end when she was holding Aaron. Why is she passing off Aaron as her son, yet another mystery??

Also, we know Ben made it off the island, so there could be others from the island who were not on the plane who make it off like Desmond or Julliet for example.

I also thought I heard Kate mention at trial "8 survived the crash" :huh:

I think you are right Susan, that the other survivors decided to stay and some probably didn't make it. They obviously made up a detailed scenario of what happened, which we know isn't how it actually all went down, and the fact that they put the plane in the ocean to make everyone believe there were only 6 (or 8) survivors.....the rest of them, if they are alive, want everyone to believe they died in the crash and don't want to be found.

I'm afraid it's going to keep going like this, little clues will be revealed slowly only to leave us with more questions.

I can't recall where I read it, but Lost was a completely planned out (start to finish) project that is guaranteed to run I think 6 seasons (???). The creators never planned for it to go on and on, or as long as it is popular. The have definite plans about when which secrets will be revealed.

      Thus has got to STOP , medical bit believing us! I literally went through 31 years thinking it was just a food allergy as its downplayed by medical if THEY weren't the ones who diagnosed us! Im positive for HLA-DQ2 which is first celiac patient per Iran and Turkey. Here in the States especially in Cali its why do you feel that way? Why do you think your celiac? Your not eating gluten so its something else.Medical caused me depression. I thought I was safe with my former pcp for 25 years considering i thought everything I went through and going through will be available when I get fired again for health. Health not write-ups my health always come back when you're better.Im not and being tossed away at no fault to my own other than shitty genes.I was denied disability because person said he didn't know how to classify me! I said Im celiac, i have ibs, hernia, sciatica, high blood pressure, in constant pain have skin and eye issues and menopause intensified everything. With that my celiac nightmare began to reprove my disregarded disease to a bunch of clowns who think they are my careteam when they said I didn't have...I feel Im still breathing so I can fight this so no body else has to deal with this nightmare. Starting over with " new care team" and waisting more time on why I think I am when diagnosed in 1994 before food eliminated from my diet. P.s everything i went through I did write to medical board, so pretty sure I will continue to have a hard time.

      @Scatterbrain, Thiamine Vitamin B1 and amino acid Taurine work together.  Our bodies can make Taurine from meats consumed.  Our bodies cannot make Thiamine and must consume thiamine from food.  Meat is the best source of B vitamins like Thiamine.   Vegetarians may not make sufficient taurine since they don't eat meat sources of taurine.  Seaweed is the best vegetarian source of taurine. Vegetarians may not consume sufficient Thiamine since few veggies are good sources.  Whole grains, legumes, and nuts and seeds contain thiamine.  Many of these sources can be hard to digest and absorb for people with Celiac disease.   You may find taking the forms of thiamine called Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and a B Complex will give the benefits you're looking for better than taurine alone.

      @Jmartes71, I went to Doterra's site and had a look around.  The Doterra TerraZyme supplement really jumped out at me.  Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients.  The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus!  Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces!  Considering the fact that Celiac often have permeable intestines (leaky gut syndrome), I would be very hesitant to take a product like this.  Although there may not be live black mold or yeast in the product, the enzymes may still cause an immune system response which would definitely cause inflammation throughout the body.   Skin, eyes, and intestines are all made from the same basic type of cells.  Your skin on the outside and eyes can reflect how irritated the intestines are on the inside.  Our skin, eyes, and intestines all need the same vitamins and nutrients to be healthy:  Vitamin A, Niacin B3 and Tryptophan, Riboflavin B2, Biotin B7, Vitamin C, and Omega Threes.  Remember that the eight B vitamins work together.  Just taking high doses of just one, vitamin like B12, can cause a deficiency in the others.  Taking high doses of B12 can mask a Folate B9 deficiency.  If you take B12, please take a B Complex, too.  Thiamine B1 can be taken in high doses safely without toxicity.  Thiamine is needed by itself to produce energy so every cell in the body can function, but Thiamine also works with the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes and digestive enzymes.  Deficiencies in either Niacin, Vitamin C, or Thiamine can cause digestive problems resulting in Pellagra, Scurvy, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   If you change your diet, you will change your intestinal microbiome.  Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet, will starve out SIBO bacteria.  Thiamine keeps bacteria in check so they don't get out of control as in SIBO.  Thiamine also keeps MOLDS and Yeasts from overgrowth.   Menopause symptoms and menstrual irregularities are symptomatic of low Vitamin D.   Doctors are not as knowledgeable about malnutrition as we need them to be.  A nutritionist or dietician would be more helpful.   Take control of your diet and nutrition.  Quit looking for a pill that's going to make you feel better overnight.  The Celiac journey is a marathon, not a sprint.   "Let food be your medicine, and let medicine be your food."

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.

      I've used magnesium taurinate and magnesium taurate vitamins.  Didn't notice much of a difference when I used them.
