Are you still treadmilling?

I did enjoy DHW last night--I'm looking forward to this season. I particularly liked the "fake out" about Mike. I was surprised. My fav scene was the short one with the two gay neighbors. So cute! Plus, I love Tuc Watkins. :D

I'm right there wif ya on the too much TV :lol:

:lol:

I love the gay neighbor scenes too! Loved Gabby's lines too last night, so phunny!

Yep, I'm still treadmilling away!! I've even been able to go up with the speed and incline quite a bit, so if you just stick with it and work up gradually you will be amazed how your fitness level will improve :D

Don't strain yourself, now.

I'm having a hamburger too, made from ground chicken.

I can't eat beef if you guys remember I had to take out a bunch of foods from my diet after doing an allergy test, beef being one of them <_< , but I have been pleasantly surprised with the outcome of ground chicken in place of the beef. It's not at all dry like ground turkey and very flavorful. Who knew!

Hi Everyone I am going to pass an idea to you guys- can you all give me your thoughts?

Almost a year ago I got married. The week before I got married, I took my mom and what I called a road trip, we went to shop @ thrift stores in the Vestal NY area. We made a day out of it and it is the best memory we have together. She was so happy. My mom and I are really close and all but she was just ecastic that day. She still talks about it today. It had been such a great time, we did Road Trip #2 in Jan of 08. we went to the Allentown area and once again had a blast.

Shortly after that gas went sky-high. So our road trips have come to a halt and sadly the nonstop visits to my moms have also slowed. The other day she said, I miss taking those trips. I told her in the spring we will go again. So first I had said why dont we go upstate NY. We could go to some stores up in that area. I then said I will take you to Niagra Falls. She quickly says I have never been there. I told her we would stay overnight up there. She told me she would start saving her money now.

So I was thinking, instead of NY, maybe buying an airline ticket and taking her to FL. Her sister lives there and she has never seen where she lives. My mom because of our foster kids, cant travel, which is why as kids we never took vacations. I figure, Southwest has cheap tickets and I will make this her huge Christmas/Mothers Day/Birthday all in one. We would go for a weekend. Fly out on a Friday and come home on a Sunday evening. We would see her sister and then the other day do our shopping, maybe see a lighthouse which she has never been and also go to a beach. Intermingling things we both like to do. My moms sister usually comes to see us and her family in PA for a month eveyr summer- but they didnt make it this year at all. So what I am going to do, is put the trip together now, and then present it to her on her birthday or something. If she doesnt like the whole FL plan, we will just do the Niagra trip. What do you guys think? Any suggestions?

Yes- my mom is a very young, 63. She had me when she was 37 and when I was in school I didnt like it since she didnt have the same mind of thought that the "younger" moms did. I am so thankful for it. When I got to high school I knew what was not a good idea and such. Plus my mom and I are very close and we get closer everyday. All my sisters are close with my mom. We are so fortunate!

Amanda? No more Chocolatetown USA? Is that about the loss of cocoa butter?

FL w/ mom to see your aunt sounds like a great idea. ;)

Jack & the Snotstalk makes me think the Giant in that story went green for the million greenbacks & started a frozen vegetable company. Heck, I'd be Jolly too.

When do you find out CT results, Em?

Hugs for Bevvy!

      Potential celiac need advice

      By itsdunerie · Posted

      Dang......did it again and yeah I should admit I am 63 with clumsy phone thumbs. I started feeling better quickly and a doctor a year later said I had to eat  poison (gluten) every day for a month so he could formally diagnose me and NO FREAKING WAY. I couldn't then and can't imagine putting my body through that crap (no pun intended) on purpose ever again.  Why ingest poison for a month to have some doctor say Hey, All you Have To Do Is Never Eat poison Again..

      15 years ago my best friend 'diagnosed' me as Celiac. Her little nephew had been formally diagnosed and her observations of me dealing with brain fog, stomach problems and other stuff had her convincing me to try going gluten free. Oh my heavens, within 3 days, no lie, I felt human again. Took me about a y

      Potential celiac need advice

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.
