Boy, could I have used one of those guys when we were trying to flag a cab in NYC! :lol:

Oh . . . and the knee . . . I think I'm doing pretty good. Got major kudos from the doc and PT at my appts on Thursday. Sometimes it feels great and then a couple of hours later much much worse . . . comes and goes . . . have to keep an glittery eye on the swelling.

I'm pretty sure you need a foot detox pad, oh wait, wrong thread :P

Glitter would certainly help the swelling, and setting a pyramid on your knee (anyone remember that healing fad from the 70's?)

Now, was I just a dolt? :lol: Did everyone else know from the very beginning that there were li'l people under those things? :rolleyes::huh:

You weren't the only one! Mark and I were incredulous! :o:D

Mom got me a bunny! :) He is so adorable! Boomer is his name.

My son had a bunnie once and he litter-trained it.

:brown-noserface:

Brown-nose

Take your hand with fingers together and thumb across palm [letter B] and brush fingers forward twice against side if nose. ;)

What did the hamburger name his daughter?

:rolleyes::lol::lol:

Happy Birthday, Anamanamanduh!!!!!!......See.......you don't have to feel left out! :P

One more sign........very fitting...

Olympics

Make the OK sign with both hands (thumb and index together, all other fingers up) and interlock them so they look like links on a chain......now let go and twist hands, link back together....repeat.

First day back to work wore me out....slept a lot......missed opening ceremony. :angry:

Glitter....pyramids on our bodies....the 70's.......

Uh, wasn't that one of those movies that was on late, late, late at night? <_<:lol:

First day back to work wore me out....slept a lot......missed opening ceremony. :angry:

How was your first day back, Lisa?

curlyfries Contributor
...can't we all just get along?!?!?!?

I warned you about those neighbors not playing nice! <_<

Ah Lisa,

I envy you! :rolleyes: I loved working in the school, although it was exhausting the first week or so after summer vacation. ;)

I imagine when I start interpreting next week, I'll be a wreck at first :wacko:

curlyfries Contributor
How was your first day back, Lisa?

Morning spent in an auditorium listening to administrators talk......:fingertwisingatsideofnose:.......out for lunch.......afternoon at school meeting people, getting tour of building, taking notes on signs I will need to look up...........................not that bad, but my days are used to being broken up with occassional visits to Sillyville :P

Really? What does that mean? . . . The bunny can apply glitter eye-shadow to itself??

Hmmmmm . . . tempting to throw that out into the "real" forum just to see what they do with it.

Ba ha ha :lol: :lol: Don't tell anyone but I do use detox foot pads when I'm on the abx :ph34r: :ph34r: I swear they work- (my feet are all a-glitter the next morn). Must invest in crystals and pyramid :P I am kind of a new age freak hippy.

Oh, that is terrific.....

You guys have to root for our Ian Miller - - he's the 62 year-old equestrian rider. This is his ninth Olympics. C'MON, GRAMPA!!!!!! :lol::lol:

Now THAT is cool. I used to dressage when I was in my teens and I gotta tell ya. I'm It's not as easy as I it looks :P

<--------- See new avatar. I wanted to be an Olympic equestrian (still do!)

Don' forget . . . glittery eye-shadow to distract or throw light into the competition's eyes!!

And the VERY SMALL bikinis :lol: Gabrielle Reese was/is cool though!!!!!!!

Youse guys- sumfin is wrong with me (vomiting, D, black tarry stools). They took blood and a poopy cow sample yesterday :ph34r::(

Phunny story about moi in a bathroom--

Gosh Bev....this is concerning. We'll hope it turns out to be nuthin serious.

Are you taking oral meds still? Maybe some sort of reaction?

tom Contributor
... . ...I'll just say this, because our Canadian commentator mentioned it and I'm SO GLAD that he did: when you see things moving, look carefully for the person controlling it - - may not be obvious, but those incredible people are there.....

*ONLY* because of this, and the side-view shot ~1/2 way thru, I noticed some footsies under the characters, but STILL didn't believe people could be doing that so perfectly precise for a few minutes.

Heard someone today say they practiced 8+ hrs/day for 4 mos and last night was the 1st time w/ no errors. :o

<oh come on!!> <_<

Oh . . . and the knee . . . I think I'm doing pretty good. Got major kudos from the doc and PT at my appts on Thursday.

Y'know, that's the bottom line with any therapy, conventional or not. There is no 'one size heals all' and who's to say that your particular chemistry isn't such that you can detox with foot pads.

I think it's unlikely that non-conventional therapies work for most people, but just as a few people get no benefit from standard treatments, there's gotta be a few people that get benefit from non-standard treatment.

<I only object to the people that say 'because it worked for me, it must work for everyone'>

And Darnit! Do your PT!! That DOES help most people.

Thanks toots- I'm not on any abx yet. Could have been a bad arse glutening :( Weird.

So weird!!!!!!!

SWIMMER EMILY SILVER FROM BAINBRIDGE ISLAND!! I had no idea she was from my little town!!

You know that unbelievable grid with the hundreds of moving squares that went like a wave, then spirals, then Chinese characters, all incredibly timed and flowing? Of course we know NOW that each of those squares had a person under it, moving it up and down with staggering precision, as they all burst up and began waving at the very end. Well, I thought at first that the squares were being moved by a computer somewhere....it never occurred to me that people could actually do this, so precisely. During the performance, our announcer mentioned that it was individual people under each square, kneeling, crouching, then standing and crashing back down at the exact moments needed.

Now, was I just a dolt? :lol: Did everyone else know from the very beginning that there were li'l people under those things?

That was amazing!

I didn't know until the very end when they flashed the camera closer and to the ground, then you could see thousands of little feet underneath.

well, WHEN is the replay on here? Becasue.....last night, we went to this pub, got caught up with some......interesting characters, :huh: and I was not home until past 9. I was staring at the TV screens, though, and saw the MOST fascinating precision in the events.........

MUST see it again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MUST SEE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Am MAD at self! :angry:

WHAT?!?!?!?!?

She who never misses an opening ceremony, she who reminded us of the opening ceremony coming up, MISSED IT?!?!?!? :blink:

Did you at least leave the tv on for the Weeze?

You guys have to root for our Ian Miller - - he's the 62 year-old equestrian rider. This is his ninth Olympics. C'MON, GRAMPA!!!!!!

I love the story about your flag-bearer....the Sudanese refugee. What a beautiful face, smiling into the crowd, and what a horrific childhood.... . .now he stands to win a gold medal. Those are the real stories of the Olympics.......

I love the story behind our flag bearer too, heart warming :wub: A 62 year old equestrian rider? How fabulous!!!! I will keep an eye out. Don't forget the 41 year old swimmer Dara Torres.

THis is what I love about the Olympics, all the personal stories behind all the athletes, from all the countries. So many have really overcome great odds.

Another moment last night I just loved was the little boy walking out with that basketball player (phorgot his name....) who was carrying China's flag, the little boy being one of the survivors of the earthquake.

Don' forget . . . glittery eye-shadow to distract or throw light into the competition's eyes!!

:lol:

Glad your knee is doing ok :)

Equestrian Bubba!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bevvy wevvy, what is going on with you? That doesn't sound very good, everything is coming out both ends :huh::( . Any better tonight?

So, I'm in Starbucks today--of course, being Saturday :P --in the ladies room (again, of course) and me sunglasses that were hanging from me shirt fell onto the floor right in front of the toilet :o:angry:B)

Patti, I woulda done the same thing, you know what I always say about public bathrooms ;):lol:

      I followed the Autoimmune Protocol Diet which is really strict for a while, but later other foods can be added back into your diet.  Following the AIP diet strictly allows you digestive system to heal and the inflammation to calm down.  Sort of like feeding a sick baby easy to digest food instead of spicy pizza.   It's important to get the inflammation down because chronic inflammation leads to other health problems.  Histamine is released as part of the autoimmune response to gluten.  High histamine levels make you feel bad and can cause breathing problems (worsening asthma), cardiovascular problems (tachycardia), and other autoimmune diseases (Hashimoto's thyroiditis, diabetes) and even mental health problems. Following the low histamine version of the AIP diet allows the body to clear the histamine from our bodies.  Some foods are high in histamine.  Avoiding these makes it easier for our bodies to clear the histamine released after a gluten exposure.   Vitamin D helps regulate the immune system and calm it down.  Vitamin D is frequently low in Celiacs.  The B Complex vitamins and Vitamin C are needed to clear histamine.   Supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals boosts your intestines' ability to absorb them while healing.   Keep in mind that gluten-free facsimile foods, like gluten-free bread, are not enriched with added vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts are.   They are empty calories, no nutritional value, which use up your B vitamins in order to turn the calories into fuel for the body to function.   Talk to your doctor or nutritionist about supplementing while healing.  Take a good B Complex and extra Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine (shown to promote gut health).  Most B Complex vitamins contain thiamine mononitrate which the body cannot utilize.  Meats and liver are good sources of B vitamins.   Dr. Sarah Ballantyne wrote the book, the Paleo Approach.  She's a Celiac herself.  Her book explains a lot.   I'm so glad you're feeling better and finding your balance!
    • klmgarland
      So I should not eat my gluten free bread?  I will try the vitamins.  Thank you all so very much for your ideas and understanding.  I'm feeling better today and have gathered back my composure!
    • knitty kitty
      Some people prefer eating gluten before bed, then sleeping through the worst symptoms at night.  You might want to try that and see if that makes any difference.   Several slices of toast for breakfast sounds okay.  Just try to work up to the Ten grams of gluten.  Cookies might only have a half of a gram of gluten.  The weight of the whole cookie is not the same as the amount of gluten in it.  So do try to eat bread things with big bubbles, like cinnamon rolls.   Yeah, I'm familiar with the "death warmed over" feeling.  I hope you get the genetic test results quickly.  I despise how we have to make ourselves sick to get a diagnosis.  Hang in there, sweetie, the tribe is supporting you.

      Thank you, a little expensive but glad to have this source.

      @knitty kitty  Thank you very much for the advice. I did the exam this morning, my doctor actually suggested me to take something called "Celiac duo test" in which I first do the genetic test and if it's positive, then I'll have to do the antigen blood test. I have to attend 1 month until my results are ready, so I have some weeks to increase the amount of gluten I eat daily. It will be hard because my health is not the best right now, but I also did a blood test to cheek my nutritional deficiencies. The results will arrive on Tuesday, so I can ask my doctor what should I do to control my symptoms and blood levels during this month. For now I'm resting and paying attention to what I eat— at least I don’t look like a vampire who just woke up, like I did yesterday. I'm still scared because is the first time I've felt this sick, but this is the right moment to turn things around for the better.  I realized that if I eat gluten at lunch I cannot finish the day properly, I become severely tired and sometimes my stomach hurts a lot - let's not talk about the bloating that starts later. Do you think is it ok to eat gluten just in the morning, like some cookies and slices of bread for breakfast?
