I think it's so cute that Brits refer to redheads as ginger people. I really think I was born in the wrong country! If it's English (Irish, Scottish or Welsh) I LOVE IT!

Steak and A bJ Day huh? Boy, us girls are gonna have us some NICE Valentine's Days!!!!

I'm back. I'm not so silly, I just got fired today. They've been working their way through pretty much everyone the guests like and replacing them with cheaper versions after harassing them into insanity. They put me through hell the past two weeks trying to come up with an excuse to fire me. I actually feel relieved. My boyfriend's happy I'm not going to be so upset all the time anymore.

Nikkles, I like ginger!!! My skin's generally quite pale, but I am also VERY yellow, you have to put me next to someone else to see it because I'm so pale, but with the yellow skin it did NOT work out that time I tried to dye my hair red..... Oddly, I can wear red clothing very well..... huh.

Anyway! Sorry I haven't been around lately, much drama and tiredness. I will try to bring the silly.

Bunnie--ugh, so sorry about this. Too much of this kind of thing happening nowadays.....I predict you will come out of this with an even better job when all is said and done. :)

My hair is looking a bit "ginger-y" as of late, too. I tried to tone down the brassiness caused by the relaxer, used light ash brown and voila--browish-ginger. Especially in the sun.....I kinda like it B)

A pserious query fer all psyllies who Sven--does anyone else get insomnia when they work out in the evening? Not doing that again anytime soon...... <_<

Yes . . . this is why I avoid svenning at all costs . . . no matter what time of day . . . that's my story and I'm stickin' to it. :P

Bun-knee!!! How heinous!!! It sounds like a good place to NOT be working at anymore!! I hope something comes along soon . . . that is, if you want something to come along soon. You might just want to put yer feet up and relax a bit.

Y'know, I've been stressing about money without a job and I realized that it's not like I've been making that much AT my job, they've cut my hours so much it's half a normal paycheck, so I might as well relax now that I'll probably be on unemployment. I'm hoping to go work at Whole Foods. I love it there. I already started applications the other day, the writing on the wall was pretty clear when I was given twice the work of my coworker and the same deadline. Not to mention the blatant hostility..... I thought I was a nice person, you know?

Yes, that happens to me. I never work out within four hours of bedtime. When I actually work out....

Good to know I'm not alone--I finally got to sleep shortly after Mark's alarm went off at 5AM. <yawn>

Hi, Buh-gneeee! So glad you're back! I'm sorry to hear about your underhanded dismissal. . .......but really, 'tis good riddance, methinks!

HEY! TWO new avs needed, pronto!

Paghteeigh, I canna meet Sven after supper -- even if it's a long time before bedtime. It is a guaranteed ticket to lying there, staring-at-the-ceiling-till-three-am. Actually, so would that new April holiday idea, methinks. .. . .. . ..well, at the mattress, methinks. . . . ..... <_<:lol:

      @Riley., Welcome to the forum.   It was once believed that Celiac Disease was only a childhood disease and it can be outgrown.  That was before 1951, before gluten was discovered to be cause of Celiac Disease, also called Infantilism.  Back then Cileac Disease was thought to be only a gastro intestinal disease, once you  "outgrew" the colicky phase, you were cured. You were so lucky to be diagnosed at 5 years old so your developing years were normal.  Gluten can affect multiple systems.  The nervous system, your intellegence. The muscules, skeleton. It can cause neurological issues like brain fog, anxiety, and peripheral neuropathy.  It can cause joint pain, muscle weakness, and skin rashes. Epilepsy is 1.8 times more prevalent in patients with celiac disease, compared to the general population. Because through malabsorption and food avoidances, it causes vitamin D and numerouus other essential nutrient deficiencies, it allows allergies, infections, poor growth, stuffy sinuses and eustacian tubes. There is even a catagory of celiac disease called "Silent Celiac".  Any symptoms are explained away as this, that or the other thing. Gluten is one of the most addictive substances we consume.  Activating the Opiod receptors in our cells, it can numb us to the damage that it, and other foods are causing.  It has become socially acceptable to eat foods that make us feel sick.  "There's a pill for that".   It is generally accepted that n fact you are weird if you don't. The hardest part is that if you don't eat gluten you will feel great and think why not.  But slowly it will effect you, you'll be diagnosed with real diseases that you don't have. You'll be more susseptable to other autoimmune diseases.  As you read through the posts here, notice how many are finally dianosed, after years of suffering at older ages.  Is it worth it? I think not. Perhaps this book will help:  Here is a list of possible symptoms:

      Hi! Im Riley, 18 years old and have been diagnosed for 13 years.. the testing started bc I stopped growing and didn’t gain any weight and was really small and thin for my age.  I got diagnosed when I was 5 and have been living gluten free since, in elementary and middle school it was hard for me and I kept contaminating myself bc I wanted to fit in with my friends so so badly. I ate gluten secretly at school and mostly regretted it 30 minutes later.  I’ve had symptoms like diarrhea, nausea, headaches, stomachaches, threw up a lot and was really emotional.  In 2022 I really started working on myself and tried to stay gluten free and if I did eat gluten I wouldn’t tell anyone and suffer in silence.  Last year in July I begged my mom to let me „cheat“ one day bc I just wanted to fit in… I ate a lot of different stuff, all the stuff I missed out on in my childhood like nuggets, pizza and all that.. I didn’t have symptoms that day and was doing really fine My mom and I wanted to test how far we can go and said we would test it for 12 weeks to get my blood taken after to see if I’m doing good or if symptoms start showing  As a now 18 year old girl who finally gained a normal weight and doesn’t get symptoms I’m to scared to get tested/my blood taken cuz I finally found comfort in food and it got so much easier for me and my family.  A year and 4 months later i still didn’t get any symptoms and have been eating gluten daily.  I’m scared to get tested/my blood taken cuz what if I’m actually not fine and have to go back to eating gluten free. Any tips to get over that fear and „suck it up“ cuz I know I could seriously damage my body… sorry if I seem like a idiot here… just don’t really know what to do :,)

      There is much helpful 'truth' posted on this forum. Truths about Celiac Disease are based on scientific research and people's experience. Celiac disease is inherited. There are 2 main Celiac 'genes' but they are variations of one gene called HLa - DQ What is inherited when a person inherits one or both of the DQ2 or the DQ8 is a predisposition to develop celiac disease after exposure to a environmental trigger. These 2 versions of the DQ gene are useful in diagnosing  celiac disease but there are about 25 other genes that are known to influence celiac disease so this food intolerance is a multigenic autoimmune disease. So with so many genes involved and each person inheriting a different array of these other genes one person's symptoms may be different than another's symptoms.  so many of these other genes.  I don't think that much research on these other genes as yet. So first I wrote something that seem to tie together celiac disease and migraines.  Then you posted that you had migraines and since you went gluten free they only come back when you are glutened. Then Scott showed an article that reported no connection between migraines and celiac disease, Then Trents wrote that it was possible that celiacs had more migraines  and some believed there was a causal effect. You are each telling the truth as you know it or experienced it.

      Another annoying thing about trying to figure this Celiac life out is reading all of the labels and considering every choice. I shop at Aldi every week and have been for years. I was just officially diagnosed Celiac a couple weeks ago this October after my endoscopy. I've been encouraged by my local Aldi in that they have a lot of gluten free products and clearly labeled foods. I usually buy Milagro corn tortillas because they are cheap and are certified. However, I bought a package of Aldi's Pueblo Lindo Yellow Corn Tortillas without looking too closely (I was assuming they were fine... assuming never gets us anywhere good lol) it doesn't list any wheat products and doesn't say it was processed in a facility with wheat. It has a label that it's lactose free (hello, what?? When has dairy ever been in a tortilla?) Just, ugh. If they can add that label then why can't they just say something is gluten free or not? I did eat some of the tortillas and didn't notice any symptoms but I'm just not sure if it's safe. So I'll probably have to let my family eat them and stick with Milagro. There is way too much uncertainty with this but I guess you just have to stick with the clearly labeled products? I am still learning!

      Thank you all for sharing your experiences! And I am very thankful for that Thanksgiving article, Scott! I will look into it more as I plan my little dinner to bring with on the Holiday I'm also glad a lot of research has been done for Celiac. There's still a lot to learn and discover. And everyone has different symptoms. For me, I get a bad headache right away after eating gluten. Reoccurring migraines and visual disturbances were actually what got my PCP to order a Celiac Panel. I'm glad he did! I feel like when the inflammation hits my body it targets my head, gut, and lower back. I'm still figuring things out but that's what I've noticed after eating gluten! I have been eating gluten-free for almost two months now and haven't had such severe symptoms. I ate a couple accidents along the way but I'm doing a lot better
