AHOY ME HEARTIES!!!!

This morning I started to make my smoothie that I eat every morning ... Wild Oats was out of vanilla whey powder, so I have chocolate ... I added a banana and frozen strawberries instead of my usual raspberries ... I put the hand blender in and apparently hit the start button too soon and chocolate smoothie went all over everything.

:rolleyes: Don't you just hate it when that happens?!

I decide to wash my terrycloth robe

This would not be a decision I'd take lightly (and definitely not when herxing!)

My dressing gown as we quaintly call them is thick towelling with a hood and takes bloomin' days to dry ..hours in the dryer.....still damp...Heinous chore <_<

NIKKEIGH!!!!!!!!!!!! You must come for an emergency hair consultation and intervention!!!!!!!!!!

SUSIE !!!! You know I'd be there if you weren't the OTHER SIDE OF MY MAP!!!!!!!! :lol:

Do you remember the beanie hat you had to buy when you dyed your hair & it went green???......time to find it again :rolleyes:

...Yep, it's tout de suite. We anglophones often shorten it to "tout suite", but I don't think the French much like this.

The French don't seem to like anything much ......if you aren't French :lol: (but wait :unsure: ......do the Canadian French have a sense of humoUr????....Sacre Bleu!!!!!!!!!)

BTW I say toute suite and sod the French :lol:

Hehe . . . . . . . .will today become "Talk Like A Pirate About Susie's Hair" Day? :D

Avast ye saucy wenches!!

Bev!! Mention a soy plank agin & ye 'll be kissin the gunner's daughter! Arrrrrrrr!! :angry:

:lol::lol: You're really quite good at the 'pirate talk' Tom!!!!!!!

Begad we be needin' t'punish the blaggard responsible fer that bilge-sucking hair!

By gad we do...arrrrrrrrrrrrr

:lol: invert the troll's hair the other way - I am sure you math geeks have a name for that triangular shape - and that would be more like it.

Isosoles??????? ha ha total guess - I am inumerate ......is that even a word ???

MUST find new stylist THIS MINUTE. The man who colored my hair......I am not kidding - he has become one of the most hated stylists in Fresno. :angry::angry::angry:

You MUST promise NEVER to go back to this EVIL man!!!!!!!!!

Walking the plank is too kind for this swine who created the inverse orange triangle!!!!!! :angry:

Ok, must tend to poor coeliac child who either:

Has a bug or

Has been hideously glutened (when, where???? *sigh* ....who knows????...but he can't seem to get a clear run of even a week lately without this happening) .......... poor chap doesn't know what end to tend to first <_<

I thought I hit quote on Nikki's dressing robe comment ... mine is terrycloth, but it's lightweight, short, and has no hood. It actually washes up nicely. It's still in the 90's here (33 degrees C) ... Way too early in the year for the heavy robe!

Orange pyramids.....

You will all be very proud of me, the pathetic li'l struggler in math, with this:

<h1 style="margin: 0px; padding: 5px 10px 6px;">How many oranges in total would there be in a pyramid if the base of the pyramid has 36 oranges and the top of the pyramid has one orange?</h1>

Owwww....my braaaaaiiiinnn......

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

Omg, if you put an orange pyramid on your head you will look like a cheese head!!!!

I am now cracking myself up!

Me either ... well, it was on one time at Penn Station (a sandwich shop), does that count?

Oh, drink a mojito for me ... and I think I can speak for Bev, drink one for her, too.

Marge has an incredible head of blue hair that goes staight upwards for several feet. Like the Grand Poobah hats minus the horns. Now, you guys have tolerated my math ignorance, please bear with me for more ignorance: what's in a mojito?

CarlaB Enthusiast
91. Man, I hate math.

How did you get that? I thought it was the area of the base (36), times the height (6) divided by 3?

Nevermind, you can't do it that way. Are you helping someone with their homework???

tom Contributor

"Oh . .. . . My . . .. .. Gawwwwwwwd" is right! Where to start?

Why, w/ the math of course!

Owwww....my braaaaaiiiinnn......

O = sum of n sqrd, for all n from 1 to L, where L=length of one side of the base.

Yup 91.

<and nosoyboy is left trying to figure out why the 108 & 72 happen to differ by 36, the original # in the word problem>

OwOwOw!! now MY brain hurrrrrrrts!! :o

So Scupper THAT mateys!!!

Marge simpson rocks the blue hair. It is huge though.

DingoGirl Enthusiast
what's in a mojito?

:lol:

an old Havana, Cuba drink, now quite popular in all parts.

White rum, fresh-squeezed lime, simple syrup (sugar and water), and lime sparkling water. YUM!!!!!!!

Arrrrrrrr!! Finally all caught up! Ended up reading much of it 3x and laughing anew each time. :lol: :lol:

Oops I misattributed someone's comment! My bad!

Soozito? Does the James Fenimore Cooper reference signal the end of summer?

(Avast!! Splicin' the mainbrace w/ a matey & some grand grog!)

This lovely libation wasn't yet popular when I was last a drinker.

But . . .uhhhhhh . . . . . .isn't fresh mint smooshed around in the glass w/ a mini baseball bat essential? Muddle mottle huh wth IS that word?

WTH??? STOP IT!!!!!!!!!!

:lol:

:lol: Once the math starts, it gains momentum (p=mv), and just gets harder to stop. The one to blame is the one who started it.

Spent almost 2.5hrs hangin w/ that new forum member, tvhealthfood. The TV is Tri-Valley and he owns a health food store.

Holy crap he knows a TON about health issues!! Spends a lot of time researching.

Plenty of fun talk, too. The time fuuh-Lew!

He has that thread soliciting questions. I wish I had a Q. Maybe I'll just snatch one from the omg thread, tho he's pretty skeptical about the *most* alternative topics.

      This article does not address migraines at all.  Yes, red wine and sulfites are often mentioned in connection with migraine triggers. With me, any kind of alcoholic beverage in very modest amounts will reliably produce a migraine. Nitrous oxide generators, which are vaso dialators, also will give me migraines reliably. So, I think most of my migraines are tied to fluctuations vascular tension and blood flow to the brain. That's why the sumatriptan works so well. It is a vaso constrictor.

      Excessive dietary tyrosine can cause problems.  Everything in moderation.   Sulfites can also trigger migraines. Sulfites are found in fermented, pickled and aged foods, like cheese.  Sulfites cause a high histamine release.  High histamine levels are found in migraine.  Following a low histamine diet like the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet, a Paleo diet, helps immensely.    Sulfites and other migraine trigger foods can cause changes in the gut microbiome.  These bad bacteria can increase the incidence of migraines, increasing histamine and inflammation leading to increased gut permeability (leaky gut), SIBO, and higher systemic inflammation.   A Ketogenic diet can reduce the incidence of migraine.  A Paleo diet like the AIP diet, that restricts carbohydrates (like from starchy vegetables) becomes a ketogenic diet.  This diet also changes the microbiome, eliminating the bad bacteria and SIBO that cause an increase in histamine, inflammation and migraine.  Fewer bad bacteria reduces inflammation, lowers migraine frequency, and improves leaky gut. Since I started following the low histamine ketogenic AIP paleo diet, I rarely get migraine.  Yes, I do eat carbs occasionally now, rice or potato, but still no migraines.  Feed your body right, feed your intestinal bacteria right, you'll feel better.  Good intestinal bacteria actually make your mental health better, too.  I had to decide to change my diet drastically in order to feel better all the time, not just to satisfy my taste buds.  I chose to eat so I would feel better all the time.  I do like dark chocolate (a migraine trigger), but now I can indulge occasionally without a migraine after.   Microbiota alterations are related to migraine food triggers and inflammatory markers in chronic migraine patients with medication overuse headache https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11546420/

      Then we would need to cut out all meat and fish as they are richer sources of tyrosine than nuts and cheese. Something else about certain tyrosine rich foods must be the actual culprit.

      I agree that KAN-101 looks promising, and hope the fast track is approved. From our article below: "KAN-101 shows promise as an immune tolerance therapy aiming to retrain the immune system, potentially allowing safe gluten exposure in the future, but more clinical data is needed to confirm long-term effects."  
    • Scott Adams
      Thank you so much for having the courage to share this incredibly vivid and personal experience; it's a powerful reminder of how physical ailments can disrupt our fundamental sense of self. What you're describing sounds less like a purely psychological body dysmorphia and more like a distinct neurological event, likely triggered by the immense physical stress and inflammation that uncontrolled celiac disease can inflict on the entire body, including the nervous system. It makes complete sense that the specific sensory input—the pressure points of your elbows on your knees—created a temporary, distorted body map in your brain, and the fact that it ceased once you adopted a gluten-free diet is a crucial detail. Your intuition to document this is absolutely right; it's not "crazy" but rather a significant anecdotal data point that underscores the mysterious and far-reaching ways gluten can affect individuals. Your theory about sensory triggers from the feet for others is also a thoughtful insight, and sharing this story could indeed be validating for others who have had similar, unexplainable sensory disturbances, helping them feel less alone in their journey.
