Cannot wait to hear the report of your visit at said in-laws, R... . .....perhaps you should show up at the house with a big satanic tattoo covering one arm, and "666" scrawled across your forehead. Stare menacingly at everyone the entire visit, and say nothing. Just moan quietly the odd time. :huh:

Um, router fixed. He came in, unplugged it, plugged it back in, and things were good. :huh:

Jeesh--fer the most part, one could hear a pin drop around here :lol:

Anywho, fer those still checkin in.....I'm taking advantage of Mark working late to start cookin fer the trip. I have a huge batch of ham and scalloped potatoes in the oven (some for later, some to freeze in to indy portions), mashed sweet potatoes wif maple syrup and butter, zucchini and onions, and I did a pot roast the other day.

Still have a couple more things to make but now I can easily finish over the weekend. Should get me to Joisey and through Thanksgiving Day till I can get to the store on Friday.

Of course this all hinges on the purchase of a car fridge.....said purchase to occur this weekend. :rolleyes: I've managed to do wifout one till now......

I shoulda spoke up and said something. Last two times we couldn't get online hubby insisted it was the ISP's fault. The first time I said reset the router and he did, and minutes later it was working. Second time, he said no way it was the router (I can't crawl in to where the geniuses who built the house positioned it) and said to call the ISP. After half an hour online with HongKong or Mumbai or wherever (me, because he can't hear or understand them) we ended up with "reset the router" and guess what, another coincidence :o

Realized today that I am not working T-day. Was babbling on to my technician about who comes in when to start the experiment and suddenly realized that the Thursday experiments don't start until the following week. I'm like all happy and cheerful and my technician looks at me and says "You planned it this way. Don't you remember????"

No, I don't remember, but I am quite happy to discover that I occasionally plan ahead.

Goin' to m' bro's house. He said he doesn't know what his wife will be cooking, but there'll be plenty of wine, so I'm in.

I suppose I could, theoretically, be drunk for four days at least....

Rae-rae and I will have to call each other at the height of our intoxications.

......oh...wait....her iphone talks tiny. I'll have to find some loud speakers.

Crap........ .. just detest these simple li'l solutions, absolute no-brainers, that I fail to even consider, but the cha-ching techie sure knows about them. He walks in, unplugs, then plugs back in, smiles politely, then charges for an hour.

Going to Dad's for Thanksgiving . . . he hates turkey. So we are either having fried chicken (roasted chicken would look too much like turkey) or perhaps meatloaf (shaped in the form of a turkey? - would that be too much like turkey?).

Nikki - hope you can get to the bottom of Tel's issues . . . I'm getting worried. Keep us informed.

Em - love the new av.

Rayshell - holy crap (<--- get it? HOLY crap?) about them in-laws!!! So a five day drunk is not even a whole bottle of vodka??? Good luck with that trip.

Haven't been posting much but still reading. In case I miss the departure dates, I hope everyone has safe travels!!

Indy portions :lol: :lol:

My little Lylie-bear is back!!

He had to go back to have a few random tooth chips taken out that were still causing him pain. I think he is pain free for the first time in about a year! He's been sitting on my lap and that hasn't happened for a very long time.

I suppose I'll know he's really back when he takes out that little upstart, Lefty.

So good to have the boys fighting. :)

Yes, Nikkers.... . ...... :( . . . ...please keep us in the loop re. Tel's health stuff. Very stressful for the lot o' you, I'm sure.

I am SO lucky -- I have an unbelievably healthy DH. Never sick, never injured (insert wood-knocking here).. . . .always on his game. I have very little to complain about with that guy, except his constant flatulence even gluten-free.

Oh, and there are some things that come along with him, part of the package, that warrant much grumbling (read: outlaws).. .... . ....... . ..

Oh! AND he does not notice when I get my hair cut.

Or lose five pounds.

AND he puts the toilet paper roll on the holder with the paper feeding over the top.

Gads, what I live with.

He can come live with me any time!! Isn't that what all sensible (as opposed to having been taught the "correct" way) do it?? :lol: That way you can see where the end is and don't have to go fumbling underneath or reach too far down (depending on positioning). *I* consider the underfeed to be the *wrong* way, so there!!! :lol:

      @catnapt, Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract. They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows. Even beans have lectins. You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract. You may want to allow your digestive tract...

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg). Both are gluten free and free of other allergens. I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25". It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA. It's a powder form of Vitamin A. ...

      I wouldn't consider this lucky. I can NOT tolerate the symptoms. And I googled it and I was not even getting 10 grams of gluten per day and I was extremely ill. They'd have to put me in the hospital. I'm not kidding. I will have my first appt with a GI dr on March 4th I will not eat gluten again - at least not on purpose ...

      If lectins were my problem, I would react to wheat germ (the highest source of wheat lectins) and beans. I don't. I only react to bread and pasta, which are the highest sources of gluten. Therefore, my issue is wheat-specific (Gluten/ATIs), not a general lectin issue.   I have eaten a supposedly high lectin diet (I say supposedly because lectin content in these foods is greatly reduced by proper cooking and I eat very few of those foods raw, and even then, rarely!!) for years. My health has improved greatly on my whole foods plant forward diet. I have asked all my drs and a registered dietician about my diet, asked if eating such a high amnt of fiber might interfere with the digestion of any other nutrients and the answer has always been NO.     while doing the gluten challenge I did not eat ANY wheat germ (since it doesn't have hardly any gluten, and I was too sick from the bread and pasta to want to eat much anyway) I will NOT put that poison in my body again. That was a horrific experience and if this is what most celiac patients have to deal with, I am very sorry for them I don't care if I have celiac or NCGS I won't intentionally cause myself that much pain and suffering it's not worth it.

      @catnapt,  Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract.  They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows.   Even beans have lectins.  You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract.   You may want to allow your digestive tract to rest for a week, then start on gluten in "normal" food, not in concentrated vital wheat gluten. This explains it well: Lectins, agglutinins, and their roles in autoimmune reactivities https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25599185/

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg).   Both are gluten free and free of other allergens.  I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25".  It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA.  It's a powder form of Vitamin A.  I was having trouble digesting fats at one point, but found I tolerated the powder form much better and have stuck with it since.   Tryptophan and Vitamin A help heal the intestines as well as improves skin health.  I get Dermatitis Herpetiformis and eczema flairs when my stomach is upset.  So I'm healing the outside as well as the inside.   I take one 1000 mg Tryptophan before bedtime.   With the Thiamine HCl, take 100 mg to start.  If you don't notice anything, three hours later take another. You can keep increasing your dose in this manner until you do notice improvement.  Remember not to take it in the evening so it won't keep you too energized to sleep. When I first started Thiamine HCl, taking 500 mg to 1000 mg to start was recommended.  If you've been thiamine insufficient for a while, you do notice a big difference.  It's like the start of a NASCAR race: Zoom, Zoom, turn it up!   This scared or made some people uncomfortable, but it's just your body beginning to function properly, like putting new spark plugs in your engine.  I took 1000 mg all at once without food.  It kicked in beautifully, but I got a tummy ache, so take with food.  I added in Thiamine TTFD and Benfotiamine weeks later and felt like I was Formula One racing.  So cool.  You may feel worse for a couple days as your body adjusts to having sufficient thiamine.  Feels sort of like you haven't cranked your engine for a while and it backfires and sputters, but it will settle down and start purring soon enough.  Adjust your dose to what feels right for you, increasing your dose as long as you feel improvement.  You can reach a plateau, so stay there for several days, then try bumping it up again.  If no more improvements happen, you can stay at the plateau amount and experiment with increasing your Thiamine TTFD.  It's like being your own lab rat.  LoL Yes, take one Benfotiamine at breakfast and one at lunch.  Take the B Complex at breakfast. Take the TTFD at breakfast and lunch as well.  I like to take the vitamins at the beginning of meals and the NeuroMag at the end of meals.   You may want to add in some zinc.  I take Thorne Zinc 30 mg at breakfast at the beginning of the meal.   Are you getting sufficient Omega Threes?  Our brains are made up mostly of fat.  Flaxseed oil supplements, sunflower seed oil supplements (or eat the seeds themselves) can improve that.  Cooking with extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil, or coconut oil is also helpful.   @Wheatwacked likes phosphotidyl choline supplements for his Omega Threes.  He's also had dramatic health improvement by supplementing thiamine.  You're doing great!  Thank you for sharing your journey with us.  This path will smooth out.  Keep going!
