So is the Yeti all measured up?

OMG so guys here is our reality laugh of the day. It was still on the warm side today, low 60's...warm for October. So when we went to church this morning I wore a skirt. After church, the people have baked goods and mingle down in the church hall. SO I was walking down the walk and a huge gust of wind came and up in the air my skirt went.....oh was I embarassed..... :ph34r:

LOL, I know I was going down to meet people, see it's John's church we were at and that is the church we are getting married in. It is Russian Orthodox, so the priest suggested I come to a few masses to see how things are. I am catholic so it is much different. There is a lot of singing, but no organs. It sounded beautiful and I really enjoyed it.

Step away from the set-up line, Emily . . . or if you're gonna do it, have a little respect and change your avatar. :lol:

Amanda, I'm there! I'll have my tape measure for that yeti...wait...perhaps he won't need an inseam measurement for a bathing suit... :lol:

Real yetis skinny dip

Now, we need to give Ol' DL some benefit of the doubt...that ever-present twinkle in his eye is more than Godly worship--it's the flickering of a terrific sense of humour. If he were on our forum, I'm certain he would be typing crazily to finish my organ thought. After all, remember how he partied that evening and...oh...Janet, you weren't there. You missed nothing, honestly, Janet. Where were you, anyways? Do we have to start checking all the stray B1 Bombers when we're having our parties? :lol:

How do you have room in your head for all of that minutiae?

How dare ye insult Wizard of Oz lyrics in this manner!!!! :angry:

<she said minutiae>

OK ok . .. . I couldn't get "If I Only Had a Brain" outta my head in early June after an extended visit w/ the Wizard of Soy-Free Ozzfest, and was playing it on guitar, so I HAD to look up the words.

Annnnnnnnnd had to look it up today to be sure of the right line.

THERE!!! Ya happy NOW!!! :angry: LOL :lol:

Back when the Gin Blossoms were almost big(-ish?) they did it at a club show I went to. And The Jeffersons song too. And maybe some Josie & the Pussycats. :D

Wow Nikkie, new picture of Will? :huh: - he sure grew up fast . . . felines are a lot cuter and look a lot friendlier :unsure: when they're in that kitten stage.

Well, Silliests,

Off to my birthday dinner @ The Outback, but felt I had to share with you some information that I was met with when I sat down at our laptop. My son's grade five assignment material is on the desk here, where he is looking things up. He has carefully printed on the one page of notes:

-Less convex and bulging zygomatics, and more vertically oriented

-A distict maxillary notch

What is this grade five assignment about?!

...It's about David Hasselhoff, isn't it?! :lol:

tom Contributor
We are heading to Cape May for our honeymoon, all in favor of joining raise your hands.

We're THERE!!

Are we or are we not making the Yeti hot-tub in shirt&shorts?

Cuz I am NOT going to be Mr.. Filter-Cleaner-it's-a-man's-job-like-mowing-the-lawn guy THIS time!!! :angry:

<once yeti'd, twice . .. . .sh . .. . .what was it? Twice as freaking Angry??!!> :angry:

<maybe someone w/ jet engine experience can apply it to solve a massive fur/filter catastrophe-in-waiting?>

Queen Amanda- we all know THIS is what you really look like

<----------------------------------------------------------

And we shall be in attendance to make sure this does NOT happen until AFTER you walk down the aisle :o My biggest fear was that I would step on the hem of my dress and it would fall down :o (strapless). Wait, I'm brain dead- is it November 3rd (NO sillies- not today- the wedding!)?

Emily is correct- the DL has an EXCELLENT sense of humor (and a REAL organ) :P:D

HAPPY BIRTHDAY YOU SILLY CANUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And all hail to our new Queen Amanda!!!! :D

no time for anything else, gotta run.

elye Community Regular

Now I'm worried...WHAT is a bulging zycomatic? And perhaps most importantly, will there be one in the hottub at our honeymoon party?

:o:o:lol:

...And a maxillary notch? ... :blink: Maybe even more...compelling(?)...I don't know how to describe my reaction to that one. I need to ask my son about this assignment--I don't think David Hasselhoff 101 begins until middle school.

Love the new avatar :) It's me!

Wedding is November 3rd...just 6 days away.

Good Morning!

Welcome to the work week Sillies!!!!

Monday's are hard, especially cold mornings....I just want to crawl back into bed.

elye Community Regular

Yes, but it's only SIX DAYS AWAY, Amanda! How can you concentrate at work? You'll just have to keep coming on here...I find nothing else that makes the time whip by like sitting here, fraternizing with the cohorts who really matter!

I am having a hard time concentrating. I am worried that everything will not get done.

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

So where are all our Sillies today? I feel lonely....do I smell or something? I took a shower today you know :)

elye Community Regular

Whoa...it's very odd. Amanda, you have no one to divert your attention and make the time speed by, and I am leaving to teach another class. C'mon, somebody...Richard, get on here and keep Amanda company while I'm out. Susie, can you watch Amanda for me? I'll only be a couple of hours... :D

      Yes.  I have had the tmj condition for 40 years. My only help was strictly following celiac and also eliminating soy.  Numerous dental visits and several professionally made bite plates  did very little to help with symptoms

      Cristiana makes a good point and it's something I've pointed out at different times on the forum. Not all of our ailments as those with celiac disease are necessarily tied to it. Sometimes we need to look outside the celiac box and remember we are mortal humans just like those without celiac disease.

      Also suffer badly with gluten and TMJD, cutting out gluten has been a game changer, seems to be micro amounts, much less than 20ppm.  Anyone else have issues with other food stuffs? Soy (tofu) and/or milk maybe causing TMJD flare-ups, any suggestions or ideas? --- I'm beginning to think it maybe crops that are grown or cured with glyphosphate. Oats, wheat, barley, soy, lentils, peas, chickpeas, rice, and buckwheat, almonds, apples, cherries, apricots, grapes, avocados, spinach, and pistachios.

      Hi @Scatterbrain Thank you for your reply.   Some of these things could be weaknesses, also triggered by stress, which perhaps have come about as the result of long-term deficiencies which can take a long time to correct.   Some could be completely unrelated. If it is of help, I'll tell you some of the things that started in the first year or two, following my diagnosis - I pinned everything on coeliac disease, but it turns out I wasn't always right!  Dizziness, lightheaded - I was eventually diagnosed with cervical dizziness (worth googling, could be your issue too, also if you have neck pain?)  A few months after diagnosis I put my neck out slightly carrying my seven-year-old above my head, and never assigned any relevance to it as the pain at the time was severe but so short-lived that I'd forgotten the connection. Jaw pain - stress. Tinnitus - I think stress, but perhaps exacerbated by iron/vitamin deficiencies. Painful ribs and sacroiliac joints - no idea, bloating made the pain worse. It got really bad but then got better. Irregular heart rate - could be a coincidence but my sister (not a coeliac) and I both developed this temporarily after our second Astra Zeneca covid jabs.   Subsequent Pfizer jabs didn't affect us. Brain fog - a big thing for people with certain autoimmune issues but in my case I think possibly worse when my iron or B12 are low, but I have no proof of this. Insomnia - stress, menopause. So basically, it isn't always gluten.  It might be worth having your vitamins and mineral levels checked, and if you have deficiencies speak to your Dr about how better to address them?

      @NanceK, I do have Hypersensitivity Type Four reaction to Sulfa drugs, a sulfa allergy.  Benfotiamine and other forms of Thiamine do not bother me at all.  There's sulfur in all kinds of Thiamine, yet our bodies must have it as an essential nutrient to make life sustaining enzymes.  The sulfur in thiamine is in a ring which does not trigger sulfa allergy like sulfites in a chain found in pharmaceuticals.  Doctors are not given sufficient education in nutrition (nor chemistry in this case).  I studied Nutrition before earning a degree in Microbiology.  I wanted to know what vitamins were doing inside the body.   Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.   Not feeling well after starting Benfotiamine is normal.  It's called the "thiamine paradox" and is equivalent to an engine backfiring if it's not been cranked up for a while.  Mine went away in about three days.  I took a B Complex, magnesium and added molybdenum for a few weeks. It's important to add a B Complex with all eight essential B vitamins. Supplementing just one B vitamin can cause lows in some of the others and result in feeling worse, too.  Celiac Disease causes malabsorption of all the B vitamins, not just thiamine.  You need all eight.  Thiamine forms including Benfotiamine interact with each of the other B vitamins in some way.  It's important to add a magnesium glycinate or chelate supplement as well.  Forms of Thiamine including Benfotiamine need magnesium to make those life sustaining enzymes.  (Don't use magnesium oxide.  It's not absorbed well.  It pulls water into the intestines and is used to relieve constipation.)   Molybdenum is a trace mineral that helps the body utilize forms of Thiamine.   Molybdenum supplements are available over the counter.  It's not unusual to be low in molybdenum if low in thiamine.   I do hope you will add the necessary supplements and try Benfotiamine again.
