Gawd, no one will have a chance against the Chinese volleyball team if it is made up of any of those performers who were working beneath those boxes last night...... .. . ain't nobody with more precision, subtlety, jaw-dropping nano-second timing....... .. .

Boy, could I have used one of those guys when we were trying to flag a cab in NYC! :lol:

Oh . . . and the knee . . . I think I'm doing pretty good. Got major kudos from the doc and PT at my appts on Thursday. Sometimes it feels great and then a couple of hours later much much worse . . . comes and goes . . . have to keep an glittery eye on the swelling.

I'm pretty sure you need a foot detox pad, oh wait, wrong thread :P

Glitter would certainly help the swelling, and setting a pyramid on your knee (anyone remember that healing fad from the 70's?)

Now, was I just a dolt? :lol: Did everyone else know from the very beginning that there were li'l people under those things? :rolleyes::huh:

You weren't the only one! Mark and I were incredulous! :o:D

Mom got me a bunny! :) He is so adorable! Boomer is his name.

My son had a bunnie once and he litter-trained it.

:brown-noserface:

Brown-nose

Take your hand with fingers together and thumb across palm [letter B] and brush fingers forward twice against side if nose. ;)

What did the hamburger name his daughter?

:rolleyes::lol::lol:

Happy Birthday, Anamanamanduh!!!!!!......See.......you don't have to feel left out! :P

One more sign........very fitting...

Olympics

Make the OK sign with both hands (thumb and index together, all other fingers up) and interlock them so they look like links on a chain......now let go and twist hands, link back together....repeat.

First day back to work wore me out....slept a lot......missed opening ceremony. :angry:

Glitter....pyramids on our bodies....the 70's.......

Uh, wasn't that one of those movies that was on late, late, late at night? <_<:lol:

I warned you about those neighbors not playing nice! <_<

Ah Lisa,

I imagine when I start interpreting next week, I'll be a wreck at first :wacko:

How was your first day back, Lisa?

Morning spent in an auditorium listening to administrators talk......:fingertwisingatsideofnose:.......out for lunch.......afternoon at school meeting people, getting tour of building, taking notes on signs I will need to look up...........................not that bad, but my days are used to being broken up with occassional visits to Sillyville :P

Really? What does that mean? . . . The bunny can apply glitter eye-shadow to itself??

Ba ha ha :lol: :lol: Don't tell anyone but I do use detox foot pads when I'm on the abx :ph34r: :ph34r: I swear they work- (my feet are all a-glitter the next morn). Must invest in crystals and pyramid :P I am kind of a new age freak hippy.

Oh, that is terrific.....

You guys have to root for our Ian Miller - - he's the 62 year-old equestrian rider. This is his ninth Olympics. C'MON, GRAMPA!!!!!! :lol::lol:

Now THAT is cool. I used to dressage when I was in my teens and I gotta tell ya. I'm It's not as easy as I it looks :P

<--------- See new avatar. I wanted to be an Olympic equestrian (still do!)

Don' forget . . . glittery eye-shadow to distract or throw light into the competition's eyes!!

And the VERY SMALL bikinis :lol: Gabrielle Reese was/is cool though!!!!!!!

Youse guys- sumfin is wrong with me (vomiting, D, black tarry stools). They took blood and a poopy cow sample yesterday :ph34r::(

Phunny story about moi in a bathroom--

So, I'm in Starbucks today--of course, being Saturday :P --in the ladies room (again, of course) and me sunglasses that were hanging from me shirt fell onto the floor right in front of the toilet :o:angry:B)

Picked em up with some paper towel -- no way were those things going back on me face till I could take them home and wash em properly. (squinchedupewwwface)

Gosh Bev....this is concerning. We'll hope it turns out to be nuthin serious.

Are you taking oral meds still? Maybe some sort of reaction?

tom Contributor
... . ...I'll just say this, because our Canadian commentator mentioned it and I'm SO GLAD that he did: when you see things moving, look carefully for the person controlling it - - may not be obvious, but those incredible people are there.....

*ONLY* because of this, and the side-view shot ~1/2 way thru, I noticed some footsies under the characters, but STILL didn't believe people could be doing that so perfectly precise for a few minutes.

Heard someone today say they practiced 8+ hrs/day for 4 mos and last night was the 1st time w/ no errors. :o

<oh come on!!> <_<

Y'know, that's the bottom line with any therapy, conventional or not. There is no 'one size heals all' and who's to say that your particular chemistry isn't such that you can detox with foot pads.

I think it's unlikely that non-conventional therapies work for most people, but just as a few people get no benefit from standard treatments, there's gotta be a few people that get benefit from non-standard treatment.

<I only object to the people that say 'because it worked for me, it must work for everyone'>

And Darnit! Do your PT!! That DOES help most people.

Thanks toots- I'm not on any abx yet. Could have been a bad arse glutening :( Weird.

Check this out. The horse/rider (Mark Todd and Gandalf from NZ) that I love are famous for another reason!

So weird!!!!!!!

SWIMMER EMILY SILVER FROM BAINBRIDGE ISLAND!! I had no idea she was from my little town!!

You know that unbelievable grid with the hundreds of moving squares that went like a wave, then spirals, then Chinese characters, all incredibly timed and flowing? Of course we know NOW that each of those squares had a person under it, moving it up and down with staggering precision, as they all burst up and began waving at the very end. Well, I thought at first that the squares were being moved by a computer somewhere....it never occurred to me that people could actually do this, so precisely. During the performance, our announcer mentioned that it was individual people under each square, kneeling, crouching, then standing and crashing back down at the exact moments needed.

Now, was I just a dolt? :lol: Did everyone else know from the very beginning that there were li'l people under those things?

That was amazing!

I didn't know until the very end when they flashed the camera closer and to the ground, then you could see thousands of little feet underneath.

well, WHEN is the replay on here? Becasue.....last night, we went to this pub, got caught up with some......interesting characters, :huh: and I was not home until past 9. I was staring at the TV screens, though, and saw the MOST fascinating precision in the events.........

MUST see it again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MUST SEE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Am MAD at self! :angry:

WHAT?!?!?!?!?

She who never misses an opening ceremony, she who reminded us of the opening ceremony coming up, MISSED IT?!?!?!? :blink:

Did you at least leave the tv on for the Weeze?

You guys have to root for our Ian Miller - - he's the 62 year-old equestrian rider. This is his ninth Olympics. C'MON, GRAMPA!!!!!!

I love the story about your flag-bearer....the Sudanese refugee. What a beautiful face, smiling into the crowd, and what a horrific childhood.... . .now he stands to win a gold medal. Those are the real stories of the Olympics.......

I love the story behind our flag bearer too, heart warming :wub: A 62 year old equestrian rider? How fabulous!!!! I will keep an eye out. Don't forget the 41 year old swimmer Dara Torres.

THis is what I love about the Olympics, all the personal stories behind all the athletes, from all the countries. So many have really overcome great odds.

Another moment last night I just loved was the little boy walking out with that basketball player (phorgot his name....) who was carrying China's flag, the little boy being one of the survivors of the earthquake.

Don' forget . . . glittery eye-shadow to distract or throw light into the competition's eyes!!

:lol:

Glad your knee is doing ok :)

Bevvy wevvy, what is going on with you? That doesn't sound very good, everything is coming out both ends :huh::( . Any better tonight?

      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.

      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/
