Hmm... . .. . . . ..a weird experience. This could indicate SO many things. Were you singing together? Does he have spots on his face? Was he wearing a brassiere, and begin to ask you about yours??

WHAT??

:huh:

:lol:

Let's see the pic, Geena!... . . . . . ... Er, Jyaghnutte!

he's a nice guy. Tries to avoid grain because he thinks humans aren't meant to eat it. Is much better at conversation than I am. It's just odd to casually meet up and talk to someone when you have all the "potential" choosing your words for you. A lot like job interviews, really, but with a less lucrative, albeit more enjoyable, outcome if it all works well.

i think I made him nervous, and he didn't even know that my panties were too big so I had attached them to my skirt with binder clips.

Well, some things should be left for the second date.

If there is a second date, maybe invest in a 6 pack of panties at Walmart that fit? :P

:lol: :lol: These are pre-weightlifting smallclothes. I've lost several inches on my hips and lots of my underpinnings don't fit. But these are cute red with black polka dots and black lace trim and I hate the thought of tossing them. but I guess if they won't stay up at all on their own it may be time.

My teen boys always ask what we talk about on here. I tell them we exchange recipes and restuarants. They would be horrified to know the truth! ;)

Jess, this local shop has a "Panties of the Month Club". One of the owners is on the Bravo show "Work of Art" and doing well ( hasn't been eliminated last I saw).

Well, how well did you get to know this guy? Don't toss them yet -- if he's interested, they may fit him..... . . . ..

Are his hips bigger than yours?

Hey psills! I'm on the North Jersey tour for the weekend :P We're looking at areas, apartments, etc. Gawd--I phorgot how wonderfully gritty it is up here. :rolleyes: I pheel so comfortable. From almost everywhere we've been so far, I can see the Empire State Building out the car window from across the river.

Right now we're at a Starbucks in Clifton using the internet and getting some much needed caffeine.

Now if me hips could be a phew inches smaller I'd really be in business :D

Do better as in . . . get us a picture of said thumbs!!! . . . Just let him know that you have some phriends that want to see his thumbs . . . Use it as a way to introduce us to him . . . you can't keep us a secret, you know.

Jestgar Rising Star

Well, my next 'date' is 20 years older than the last guy. We're doing coffee so thumbs should be visible at all times.

      Reading labels at dailymed.com is simpler if you’re familiar w/ gluten-free list of inert ingredients (aka ‘excipients’  allowed by FDA.      www.gluten-free.com has that list & I’ve included It’s below…. Tricky ones for me are the “4 D’s“ because names are similar. These 2 are gluten-free by ‘legal’ definition— •Dextrans - Partially hydrolyzed corn or potato starch. •Dextrose - Powdered corn starch. Other 2 need to be questioned. (Maybe ok for isolated 7-10 day Rx,   antibiotic?,  but gluten-free status needs to be verified for long term / daily use for chronic condition, like thyroid or BP meds.)   These are : •Dextrates - Mix of sugars resulting from the controlled enzymatic hydrolysis of starch. •Dextrins - Result from the hydrolysis of starch by heat or hydrochloric acid (from corn).  It can also be obtained from wheat, rice or tapioca.  (Maltodextrin on US labels MUST be corn so gluten-free.) Technically, ‘Starch’ on USDA ‘food’ labels in US must be from corn, & if not, the source must be identified.   In drugs,‘ Pregelatinized starch’ & ‘Sodium starch glycolate’ can also be from potato, rice, OR wheat.  Wheat is more likely to be found in products made outside of US (Europe) where corn is not the major(readily available & least costly) crop.     Hope this helps even though  learning sources of some gluten-free ones may make them less appealing. (And while the “Read every label, every time” for gluten is a pain, I’ve learned there are worse things than celiac dx—Allergy to corn would be at top on my list!)          Bev in Milwaukee From www.gluten-free.com EXCIPIENT INGREDIENTS IN MEDICATIONS  Aspartame - An artificial sweetening agent derived from aspartic acid. Aspartic Acid - A crystalline amino acid found naturally in sugar beets and sugar cane.  Benzyl alcohol - Made synthetically from benzyl chloride which is derived from toluene (a tar oil). Cellulose - (ethylcellulose, methylcellulose, hydroxymethylcellulose, hydroxypropyl, microcrystalline) – Obtained from fibrous plant material (woody pulp or chemical cotton). Cetyl alcohol - Derived from a fat source (spermaceti, which is a waxy substance from the head of the sperm whale). Croscarmellose sodium - An internally cross-linked sodium carboxymethylcellulose for use as a disintegrant in pharmaceutical formulations.  Comes from wood pulp or cotton fibers to form carboxymethylcellulose.  It contains no sugar or starch. Dextrans - Partially hydrolyzed corn or potato starch. Dextrates - Mix of sugars resulting from the controlled enzymatic hydrolysis of starch. Dextrins - Result from the hydrolysis of starch by heat or hydrochloric acid (from corn).  It can also be obtained from wheat, rice or tapioca. Dextrose - Powdered corn starch. Fructose - Obtained naturally from fruits or honey; hydrolyzed cane or beet sugar. Gelatin - Obtained from the skin, white connective and bones of animals (by boiling skin, tendons, ligaments, bones, etc with water). Glycerin - Historically, glycerin (also known as glycerol), was made the following ways: -  Saponification (a type of chemical process) of fats and oils in the manufacturing of soaps -  Hydrolysis of fats and oils through pressure and superheated steam -  Fermentation of beet sugar molasses in the presence of large amounts of sodium sulfite   Today its is made mostly from propylene (a petroleum product) Glycerols - Obtained from fats and oils as byproducts in the manufacture of soaps and fatty acids (may also be listed as mono-glycerides or di-glycerides). Glycols - Products of ethylene oxide gas. Hypromellose – A brand of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (see cellulose). Iron oxide (rust) - Used as a coloring agent. Kaolin - A clay-like substance. Lactilol - Lactose derivative; a sugar alcohol. Lactose - Also known as milk sugar, is used in the pharmaceutical industry as a filler or binder for the manufacture of coated pills and tablets.   Commercially produced from cow's milk. Maltodextrins - A starch hydrolysate that is obtained from corn in the United States but can also be extracted from wheat, potato or rice. Mannitol - Derived from monosaccharides (glucose or mannose). Methyl Paraben – Comes from the combination of denatured wood alcohol and benzoic acid (benzoic acid occurs naturally in cherry bark, raspberries, tea, anise and cassia bark).  Polysorbates - Chemically altered sorbitol (a sugar alcohol). Polyvinyl alcohol – A water soluble synthetic alcohol (synthesized by hydrolysis of polyvinyl acetate). Povidone (crospovidone, copovidone) - synthetic polymers  Pregelatinized starch - A starch that has been chemically or mechanically processed.  The starch can come from corn, wheat, potato or tapioca. Shellac - A natural wax product used in tablet or capsule coating. Sodium lauryl sulfate – A derivative of the fatty acids of coconut oil. Sodium starch glycolate - Sodium salt of carboxymethyl ether of starch. Usually from potato but can be from corn, wheat or rice. Stearates (calcium, magnesium) - Derived from stearic acid (a fat; occurs as a glyceride in tallow and other animal fats and oils, as well as some vegetables; prepared synthetically by hydrogenation of cottonseed and other vegetable oils). Sucrose - Sugar also known as refined sugar, beet sugar or cane sugar. Titanium dioxide - Chemical not derived from any starch source used as a white pigment.  Triacetin – A derivative of glycerin (acetylation of glycerol). Silcon dioxide – A dispersing agent made from silicon.

      @Scott Adams  Sure, Any and all information is welcome. Also the only was to convince my family to get tested is to get tested myself and conclusive answers. Very stubborn lot.

      Understood. It's very anxiety-provoking when you don't know what you are dealing with and don't know if you are attacking it correctly.

      I have heard of NCGS, but everything is just so confusing!!! Just unsure of things as her EMA test was negative but TTG was positive @19u/ml(lab range 0.0-7.0).Apparently she also has occasional bubble like blisters in between her fingers, don’t know if that’s significant. She is triallling gluten free as suggested by the gastroenterologist after her endoscopy. Keep getting different answers when typing in her symptoms etc. Some sites say it can be possible to have coeliac, even with a negative EMA . It’s so frustrating and her anxiety levels are through the roof. I know she’s hoping it’s coeliac which is weird I know!!! But if it’s not it just means more tests. Sorry to ramble on!!!
