Hey everyone, I'm curious...what do you spend on groceries a week? It seems to me our food is tres expensive here.

Just getting used to things down here, and Mark wasn't home much for dinner for the first several weeks.....

In PA, there were 3 of us and I spent about $200 a week all told. Yeah..... <_<

Now, with just the two of us in TX, it's probably about $100 a week. We don't go out to eat much, just PF Changs a few times a month--and of course Starbucks.

I have to give you all my recipe for easy frozen pina coladas:

2-12 oz cans frozen lemonade

1-15 oz can coco lopez pure cream of coconut

1-48 oz can 100% pineapple juice

3 cups bacardi light rum

7-up

Mix all ingredients except 7-up in a freezer safe pastic container with lid (leave room in top for vapors--don't overfill). Freeze over night. When ready to serve, scoop out pina colada mix and add small amount of 7-up to achieve desired consistency.

Yum!!!

jerseyangel Proficient

Those look yummy, R. I used to love Pina Coladas, but I can't tolerate coconut anymore. :angry:

Stupid, inconvenient intolerances <_<

I can, however, tolerate wine--and am doing so more and more as of late :lol:

GOOD HUNGOVER MORNING, YA BUNCH O' P!SSTANKS!

(In my very loudest cyber-voice). . . . .....

:lol::lol::lol:

Such entertaining reading . . . .. . ....thank you so much, guys -- something I really needed this morning. LAFFS!

Your meandering discourse through last evening reminded me of the classic Flowers for Algernon. If you have not read it, you've missed a poignant masterpiece, and it is well worth it. It is a fantasy story - - the printed diary of a young man who is very mentally challenged (Down's syndrome, perhaps). His writing is exactly like the 11 pm rantings of Jyess and Rayechull.

A scientist begins to study him, and administers a new neurological drug that may "cure" mental retardation. Incredible what happens as one reads along - -the changes that slowly begin to occur with his discourse.

But NO SUCH thing happened last eve - - just kept declining into a final debauchery. :lol:

Wish I'd been there!

Friend's hibyy is out of work (drat this economy). He's made himself a goal of finding a bird feeder that will defetat the squirrles.

OMG.....I don't wanna know. .. . . .... ... :unsure: . . .. . .... ...a feeder that will DEFETAT the squirrels?... ....... . .. ...does it irradicate or neutralize them? Squish them? Fill them with toxic gas?

Jyess, you need to defetat yer boss.

I am in for Texas, depending on the time of year. We have often talked about a trip down south, and Texas would be brilliant. .. . ... . .

. . ....In Patteigh's new home!!!!! :):)

My dad is actually awake now. .. ...haven't heard much more.....going in this am. Thank so much, dear friends, for your concern. . . . . ..... :wub::wub:

Poor Jess. Now it's 'crying rain'--the moanin' after.

No headache pour mois. The first couple of sips make me feel mellow and buzzed and relaxed. By the end of the second drink I feel sober again and get the shakes. Hard to sleep. Wine especially does this to me.

"For the love of Peter"-- a new classic!! :lol::lol:

Say it ain't so, Nik!! Stay dry over there

      Welcome to the celic.com community @Ello! You say you had a blood test for celiac disease after eating gluten for 2 weeks. Were you gluten free before that? Had you ever been officially diagnosed with celiac disease previously? You say the result of the blood test was 1.5. Can you provide the name of the test and the reference range for negative vs. positive for the test? I ask because different labs used different reference ranges so scores without a reference range aren't very helpful.

      Surgery was in April 2023 due adhesions wrapped around my small bowel which caused blockage and had to be removed. Adhesions were so badly entangled that Surgeon could not cut out them, so the resection was performed. July 2025 started having severe yellow diarrhea and sometimes constipation. Just had another episode and was tested for celiac. Blood test stated 1.5 after eating gluten for 2 weeks. Lipase level was 120. Having an CT scan to check the pancreas. I have never had any issues eating gluten and now I am so fearful that I might have celiac. Has anyone had a small bowel resection? I am 65 years old. UGGH! I am still feeling bloating etc.

      If your tTg-IgA was 28 and positive is at 3, you are nearly 10x over the positive marker, so the most likely explanation by far would be celiac disease. I also do not understand why your doctor would not want to run the blood test, which is the normal first step in the diagnosis process.
    • xxnonamexx
      Is there a digestive enzyme that helps build a healthier gut? I see people taking them but not sure what really works
    • trents
      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped". Your Serum IGA 01 (aka, "total IGA") at 245 mg/dl is within normal range, indicating you are not IGA deficient. But I also think it would be wise to take your doctor's advice about the sucraid diet and avoiding dairy . . . at least until you experience healing and your gut has had a chance to heal, which can take around two years. After that, you can experiment with adding dairy back in and monitor symptoms. By the way, if you want the protein afforded by dairy but need to avoid casein, you can do so with whey protein powder. Whey is the other major protein in dairy.
