OMG!!! Found a FANTABULOUS invention Open Original Shared Link :lol:

OMG! OMG! Brian is sooo getting one of these for Father's Day or something. He always goes to bed earlier than I do, and every night when I lay down in bed, about 30 seconds later he pharts. Every night! I told him about this one day and demanded an explanation.

He claims that he doesn't sleep as well when I'm not in the bed. So when I come to bed, he must relax and then... PPHHHHHTTT.

Last night, after the normal phart, came a second one about 2 minutes later. This simple break in routine had me in helpless, choking giggles for at least 5 minutes. I had to leave the room.

A little joke for the linguistically minded Sillies:

A linguistics professor was lecturing his class the other day. "In English," he said, "a double negative forms a positive. However, in some languages, such as Russian, a double negative remains a negative. But there isn't a single language, not one, in which a double positive can express a negative."

A bored voice from the back of the room piped up, "Yeah, right."

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: I love it!

I've never been called for jury duty. I have no idea why. :huh:

Brilliant....shall tell this to the students - - see if they get it.

I say a good way to NOT get picked is to tell them you WANT to be on the jury because you can tell by looking at the defendant that they are guilty!!

Yes......Or, even better, stare intently at said lawyer after he delivers you a question and quietly say, "Well.....before I answer that I must know something about the defendant, and you, for that matter. Would you rather spend the rest of your life with suction cups on the bottom of your shoes, or metal cleats?"

Now, that oughtta do it.........

Mygawd.....I, as well, have certainly been choking in bed as a result of DH's pharting, but it has not been from laughter..... <_<:rolleyes:

Jess, meant to ask you, are you eating fruit at all on this new eating plan of yours?

What about you Patti, will fruit be allowed for you?

Just curious as I go back and forth on fruit :wacko:

I have decided to limit my fruit to 3 or 4 pieces a week. And I choose the lower glycemic (not super sweet ones).

I'll probably go even lower when my current supply runs out, but I've never been a huge fruit fan, so it's not that hard.

Happy Birthday Ezra!!!! And Alex- OMG- two weeks until the wedding....holy Toledo!!!! Our wedding song was Northern Sky by Nick Drake (still makes me tear up!). I love Into the Mystic!

Gawd Emily--this was ours....

It was the 70's...what can I tell ya.. :P

OMGAWD- Kurt LOVES that song.......something about their perfect harmonies. I give him a HARD time every time (but it IS a great song!).

When i hear Love and Marriage all I can think of is Peg and Al Bundy :lol: :lol:

I'm on a diet :o Have to get this heinous 20 pounds off--STAT --and get the BP down to manageable levels ;)

Ugh.... wait, UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i agree diets should not be called diets. Catherine works....or.....I'm on a (insert something heinous).

How exciting Alex's wedding is upon us!

That's a perfect father/daughter dance song I think. It seems lately (and for the last handful of years) everyone is choosing "Butterfly Kisses".

Only with the proper incentive, my friends! :lol:

Ok you guys are going to hate me for this, but--

Yes, it totally matters what was eaten! Think about it... corn? I would find it much easier to down a smooth homogeneous poop, than one that was... chunky.

Ok, you can all throw up on me now. :ph34r::lol:

BARF..................OMGawd- I can't even think about what was ingested/digested......gag reflex kicking in!!!!!!!!!

We're at $3.75 and I'm debating on filling up or waiting. Seems like if I wait, it goes up further. If I fill up, it drops back down!!!! Bahhhh!!!

Ohh here is my funny for the day!

I run to the bathroom to pee, run back and Susan and I ran over to the hospital pharmacy....a good 10 minute walk through the general hospital with the patients around us. We get back and then I grab my medical monitor and take her up to the 6th floor. We get to the elevator and she says oh my goodness Amanda....and points to my skirt.

Its at this point I will tell you guys that I am wearing a knee length plaid skirt....pleated....very cute! Well in the bathroom the whole back had gotten stuck up in my tights! Now I did have my lab coat on but obviously from the back you could tell......Only Me!

If gas went up to 10 dollars a gallon tomorrow, I'd have to pull my kids out of school. That's the literal truth.

Yep, tell me about it. :rolleyes:

We tend to have much smaller cars/engines here (to counteract the cha-ching factor!) plus we are a small island so generally don't have to travel too far to get anywhere e.g my son's school is 3 miles away.

GAHHHH!!!!!!!! AMANDA!!!!!!!!!!!

NOT the tights-tucked-in-the-skirt scenario!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol:

Gawd Amanda--as I read, I knew right where you were going with that one. Glad you had you lab coat on :o

Yes, most countries in Europe don't have nearly the distances to drive that we tend to here in North America. But still.....you guys are paying over twice what we are here, and two and a half times what the Americans are. Craziness.

...And that is why we saw virtually NO SUVs in England or France....

A good thing, really.

HEINOUS skirt-in-the-tights, Amanda!

Well, perhaps you made some guy's day....... :):rolleyes:

Phooey on gas prices- I WANT a car that smells like french fries (there goes my very strict Catherine!).

No, we just knew we were waiting for this........

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: How many of us have actually had this happen? We know we don't have to worry about Tom but...C'mon...admit it!!!!!!!!!!

Amanda, don't feel too bad. I had this happen at a formal in college :o and my date, who I was very angry with at the time, tried to tell me but I wouldn't listen. So he grabbed the back of my STRAPLESS gown and almost pulled it off! Turd!!!!!!!!!!!

      I realized it is actually important to get an official diagnosis because then insurance can cover bone density testing and other lab work to see if any further damage has been done because of it. Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have 4 kids, and I really want to know. If I really do have it then they may have increased risk. 
    • par18
      Been off this forum for years. Is it that important that you get an official diagnosis of something? It appears like you had a trigger (wheat, gluten, whatever) and removing it has resolved your symptom. I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free condition. I was diagnosed over 20 years ago and have been symptom free only excluding wheat, rye and barley. I tolerate all naturally gluten free whole foods including things like beans which actually helps to form the stools. 
    • trents
      No coincidence. Recent revisions to gluten challenge guidelines call for the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for a minimum of 3 weeks. If possible, I would extend that two weeks to ensure valid testing.
    • SilkieFairy
      Thank you both for the replies. I decided to bring back gluten so I can do the blood test. Today is Day #2 of the Challenge. Yesterday I had about 3 slices of whole wheat bread and I woke up with urgent diarrhea this morning. It was orange, sandy and had the distinctive smell that I did not have when I was briefly gluten free. I don't know if it's a coincidence, but the brain fog is back and I feel very tired.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/
