Gotta go venture out into the c-c-c-cold (another 4-letter word) to pick up my grandbaby from the sitter and take my brother grocery shopping. Anybody else need any favors while I'm out?

Our kids are made of hardier stock. We don't get delays or cancellations as often as you do :P

Keep in mind that I live much further North than you . . . our weather is usually much more severe . . . <snicker>

Twas suppose to run errands today and could nae convince meselph to leave me home. Nothing that couldn't wait a day or two. Doing laundry instead.

Meatloaf for supper. Why is it that I hated meatloaf as a kid and now it's one of my favourites.

I've never hated meat loaf because I never got it as a kid :rolleyes:

I used to not really like it either. Maybe because my mom made it with no seasoning every week! Hated ham & bean soup for the same reason. Jess has turned my Hub & I on to it.

Mine too--it was bland and greasy. I love mine, if I say so myself, and it smells incredible.

Maybe you should share the recipe. 3 at my house would like it. The other one is just a s :ph34r::ph34r::ph34r: sometimes about food. Karma is rough. He keeps dating vegetarians!

UGH!!dry.gif

Did I tell you guys we're FINALLY getting a new kitchen?? Complete remodel.

Sounds good - but Tel's going to have to fit it himself ('cos they want silly £££'s to fit eet!!)

.....so we've got until the 1st of Feb to get EVERYTHING prepped and ready.

Allowing for Tel's joints this is a slow process, I'm helping where possible....he's currently chasing (drilling) out channels in the walls for the wiring for under cupboard lighting.

GAWD! That dust goes ALL over the house mad.gif

Most of me cupboards have been pulled off the walls - living with most of the kitchen in the living room AND have to somehow get the kitchen cleaned up everyday enough to do dinner.

Just the plastering, new ceiling (ph34r.gif) lining the walls - levelling the floor - tiling the floor, painting the walls to go!

No, not stressful at all rolleyes.gif

WAH!!!!!!!

Wow, a gnu kitchen, Gnick! Tres exciting . . . . .. . ..!!

I try not to mention that 4-letter word.

Hey, psnaough ain't no four-letter word. . . .... . .. .:rolleyes:

I'll bet you get better road plowage in your neck o' the woods :P

Our city probably has one o' the best systems in North America.. .. . . 'cause we have to be prepared for so much FRICKIN' psnaough. . .... . today is bitter outside, but very little white stuff so far this winter. The city should have a fair-sized surplus in the budget by the end of the year, and will they fund new school programs or establish further senior/community access care with it? Nope.....they will hire some new middle managers.. . .. ... . .:angry:

LOVE meatloaf.

I bookmarked this recipe some time ago, and we all love it. I add extra fresh garlic....

Sounds like you should be able to get that done easily in time for dinner Sunday night :P - hey, you're almost there :lol:

(On a sympathetic note, WAHH!!!! - hate, hate, hate kitchen remodels! (the process, not the end result :D )

jerseyangel Proficient

Sorry Kerrighnne--we've been out all day. Here's my "recipe"....I don't measure or anything, just dump, mix, and bake.

Meatloaph

Pound and a half or so of ground meat

2 slices bread

milk (or sub--even water)

egg

ketchup

medium sized onion

salt & pepper

Finely mince onion, saute in a little olive oil until soft and set aside to cool. Preheat oven to 350.

Tear bread into small pieces and put into large bowl. Pour enough milk over it to soak and let it absorb for a couple minutes. Add egg, ketchup (about 1/2 cup), salt, pepper, and onion and combine. Add the meat and mix well.

Shape into a loaf and bake (I line pan with non-stick foil) and bake for about one hour.

Did I tell you guys we're FINALLY getting a new kitchen?? Complete remodel.

Sounds great Nik!! It'll be a pain in the butt for a while but the result will be so worth it!!

      Oh wow! Thanks for this information! I’m going to try the Benfotiamine again and will also add a B-complex to my supplements. Presently, I just take sublingual B12 (methylcobalomin). Is supplementation for celiacs always necessary even though you remain gluten-free and you’re healing as shown on endoscopy? I also take D3, mag glycinate, and try to get calcium through diet. I am trying to bump up my energy level because I don’t sleep very well and feel fatigued quite often. I’m now hopeful that adding the Benfotiamine and B-complex will help. I really appreciate your explanation and advice! Thanks again Knitty Kitty!

      @Hmart, The reason why your intestinal damage was so severe, yet your tTg IgA was so minimal can be due to cutting back on gluten (and food in general) due to worsening symptoms.  The tTg IgA antibodies are made in the intestines.  While three grams of gluten per day for several weeks are enough to cause gastrointestinal symptoms, ten grams of gluten per day for for several weeks are required to provoke sufficient antibody production so that the antibodies move out of the intestines and into the blood stream where they can be measured in blood tests.  Since you reduced your gluten consumption before testing, the antibody production went down and did not leave the intestines, hence lower than expected tTg IgA.   Still having abdominal pain and other symptoms this far out is indicative of nutritional deficiencies.  With such a severely damaged small intestine, you are not absorbing sufficient nutrients, especially Thiamine Vitamin B 1, so your body us burning stored fat and even breaking down muscle to fuel your body.   Yes, it is a very good idea to supplement with vitamins and minerals during healing.  The eight essential B vitamins are water soluble and easily lost with diarrhea.  The B vitamins all work together interconnectedly, and should be supplemented together.  Taking vitamin supplements provides your body with greater opportunity to absorb them.  Thiamine and the other B vitamins cannot be stored for long, so they must be replenished every day.  Thiamine tends to become depleted first which leads to Gastrointestinal Beriberi, a condition that doctors frequently fail to recognize.  Symptoms of Gastrointestinal Beriberi are abdominal pain and nausea, but neuropathy can also occur, as well as body and joint pain, headaches and more.  Heart rhythm disruptions including tachycardia are classic symptoms of thiamine deficiency.  Heart attack patients are routinely administered thiamine now.   Blood tests for vitamins are notoriously inaccurate.  You can have "normal" blood levels, while tissues and organs are depleted.  Such is the case with Gastrointestinal Beriberi, a thiamine deficiency in the digestive tract.  Eating a diet high in carbohydrates, like rice, starches, and sugar, can further deplete thiamine.  The more carbohydrates one eats, the more thiamine is required per calorie to turn carbs into energy.  Burning stored fats require less thiamine, so in times of thiamine shortage, the body burns fat and muscles instead.  Muscle wasting is a classic symptoms of thiamine deficiency.  A high carbohydrate diet may also promote SIBO and/or Candida infection which can also add to symptoms.  Thiamine is required to keep SIBO and Candida in check.   Thiamine works with Pyridoxine B 6, so if Thiamine is low and can't interact with Pyridoxine, the unused B 6 accumulates and shows up as high.   Look into the Autoimmune Protocol diet.  Dr. Sarah Ballantyne is a Celiac herself.  Her book "The Paleo Approach" has been most helpful to me.  Following the AIP diet made a huge improvement in my symptoms.  Between the AIP diet and correcting nutritional deficiencies, I felt much better after a long struggle with not feeling well.   Do talk to your doctor about Gastrointestinal Beriberi.  Share the article linked below. Thiamine, gastrointestinal beriberi and acetylcholine signaling https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12014454/ Keep us posted on your progress!

      Thanks, that's a great addition that I hadn't thought of.

      Other diseases, medical conditions, medications and even (for some people) some non-gluten foods can cause villous atrophy. There is also something called refractory celiac disease but it is pretty uncommon.
    • trents
      knitty kitty asks a very relevant question. So many people make the mistake of experimenting with the gluten free diet or even a reduced gluten diet soon before getting formally tested.
