Okay guys, my brain keeps playing tricks with my fingers, or the other way around :blink: There I was over on another thread spouting away about gluten free pasta, and what comes out but "gluten free pasture" :lol: You can take the girl off the farm but you can't take the farm out of the girl. Except that we don't even call them pastures or fields here in New Zealand; we call them paddocks.:unsure: However, we do put old nags out to pasture, which is probably where I belong :rolleyes:

WIH?! So I'm trying on my swimsuits yesterday trying to decide which ones to bring and I happened to turn around to see how the back looked...mistake, I know...but it appears that sometime recently I sat in cottage cheese and it STUCK to my arse and backs of me thighs! Then I spent another hour looking for sarongs and cute skirts to hide the mess. This is very upsetting! :rolleyes:

I don't think I posted this one. They also made a really nice one for the school but haven't put it out on Youtube yet because it might leak secrets to the competition. :ph34r: J is in the first picture, lower left corner in white.

They have a website. www.mmr2410.com It is updated only when you might expect teenagers would - when they have a lot of homework and a chemistry test.

Psappy psillies psinging psongs

racing robots

mushing dogs

Where whonce were penile earring threads

they talk of quakes and fires instead

Of teenage boys

of broken limbs

of scary docs

of missing buns

But Spring springs bring

Phresh phlooding phun

washing out what now is done

Build your boat and chuck the oars

grab the sides and ride the rides

We are the psillies

We live for fun

We dance and sing and smile again

We laugh in the face of fear

Aye, we do, cos life is for living and not cowering in the corner.

We got the bridge club up and running last night, but had to run on chocolate because "someone" :ph34r: (no, not me, I would never do that) forgot the rum :rolleyes: and the local is a "no entry" zone of rubble :huh:

The one that says you move into an area and after a while buy a house. We decided to buy one where our hearts are (the town the kids live in) and keep a small apartment here. We've been house-hunting up here for a few months and something just didn't feel right. This feels right--we were planning on retiring back there anyway, so we'll just shift things up a bit.

:D :D :D

jerseyangel Proficient

I feel I should also mention that since we are right out side of NYC, we can get a house down there and a small apartment here for as much or less than a home here. Not to mention phamily dinners at me house again.

:D Wackadoodle :D

      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/
