Vincent, I LOVE curly hair! That's the only good thing my husband gave the kids, their curls :blink: . Only one daughter (go figure, the one who is just like him) has my straight hair. My son has longish, curly hair and looks so nice! I agree with Carla, why don't you have it like Timothy (except for the gorgeous red colour, of course ;) )?

His is MUCH curly then mine.... I am considering a royal purple streak though, jsut for fun :)

Broncobucs is going to be here for a wedding and that is why we are meeting for lunch. I finally get to meet his girlfriend.

Vincent, I don't remember my haircut in 7th grade, but I do remember the haircut in the 6th. I was complaining that I needed a haircut and my brother who was 6 years older then me, said he would cut it. He sure did. I went to school with a DA and that afternoon a notice came from the principal that said, if anyone came to school with another one, they would be suspended. I wore mine proudly for awhile, as I was usually not a rebel, but wanted everyone's approval.

Whats a DA?

Anyone watching Grey's? I LOVE THIS SHOW! Speaking of good hair....why do they all have great hair even in the hospital?!

I love Meredith's big scene at the end when she tells them what is on her mind....and then takes the ice cream.

Mmmm....McDreamy, McSteamy, and Ice Cream-y. Mmmmm good combo. Yummy.

(rachel, happy to have you over here. I invited myself as well. Since we are not forty ish, we became "ish"s. I'm in my 20s so I'm an ish ish)

I'm so jealous of all you people who get to watcy Grey's. So not fair. I actually read the writer's blog thought so I know whats going on. How sad is that? :ph34r::lol:

CarlaB Enthusiast

Laura, I just watched it, too. Loved it!

Since 40 is the new 30, or is it 50 is the new 30, which makes 40 the new 20, you're just a baby!!! :lol: But it's good to have you here!!

Homemade ice cream ... good thing Rachel wasn't there! :lol:

I just made another batch of my 'ice cream' --- not ice cream at all, but its my only version of a cold/sweet treat. Will be ready by the morning. Yay!

Patti, my next avatar (which we be in like five months when I get things unpacked!) will be of one of my cats, Sully---the one that looks very similar to yours. Usually when I post I have either Toby or Sully, or both!) in/on my lap/arm... so sweet.

Now, onto ER....i love Thursday nights!

You'll have to let me know your "ice cream" recipe! We have just about the same exact intolerances, so I'm curious :D

I look forward to seeing your kitties--mine is laying on the floor next to me right now. :)

Ursula, your son looks like you! They are a nice looking couple :)

A "DA" is a hairstyle from the 50's.

I love animal pictures and people pictures!

Very nice picture of you son and daughter in law Ursula.

oh my god - - oh my god - - JUST CLOSED EYES when seeing a Gray's Anatomy post - skipped through it - - Remember dear ones on the east coast - we are on west coast time - - it's not on yet - - oh dear just please try and remember not to post any gray's stuff until - 1:00 a.m. your time!! :lol::o:huh:

now must stay off the board until my show is over......

edit: am eating the BEST bread - Whole Paycheck Sandwich bread - sooo good and I"m pleased, since I splurged (like, 7-something a loaf, for pete's sake) FYI - -

you know, back when I was eating gluten, and life was NORMAL, I ate the gnarliest of whole wheats....who knew I"d be eating white sandwich bread :(

Now, onto ER....i love Thursday nights!

oh my gosh....I have been watching ER for as long as it's been on, which I think is one-fourth of my life!! holy cow....it's really good this season, too..... :) Yes, Thurs nights are my TV night.....also The Office - excellent goofiness :lol:

Guest melannen

I want to play too! (Even though I'm only half way to 40ish) :ph34r:

I wish I could ask for hair advice, I hate mine, sooo sick of it! But I have no way to upload pictures from my camera to my computer and don't have any recent ones :(

I'm not really feeling the whole Gray's Anatomy thing. My sister's obsessed, but I guess I just don't get it :unsure:

Yes, join us, young one....the thread is misleading, anyone can play :)

Okay, go rent season one, Gray's anatomy - - when I was really sick, before dx and laying on the couch, I watched the first five episodes and was totally hooked. now I am deeply in love with McDreamy and he has replaced my 15-year Matthew McConnaughey obsession.....

Thanks, I figured it's be ok :lol:

As far as Gray's Anatomy goes, I don't actually know much about the show. Sometimes when my sister watches it I'll half-way pay attention. She's told me it's like House (which I love but can never watch, I'm always gone on tuesday nights :angry:) except a bit more like a soap. Other then that, I'm clueless

DingoGirl Enthusiast
I watched Gray's.... but couldn't concentrate because I was worried about Robbin... good gaawwwdd girl what the heck did you eat to make you puke?

what are you talking about?? did I miss that, on the Gray's Anatomy page? did she vomit? :blink:

Guest Robbin

:blink::angry: OMGAWWWDDD!!! Do you have to tell EVERYTHING YOU KNOW GIRLFRIEND???!! Yes, I puked, yes, I am freaking feeling like dog doo, and yes, the john is my friend tonight. Ok, now the world knows--I ate some PORK tenderloin like a fool. I make foods that picky child will eat and had to try it. Yes, I deserve my punishment because I knew what might happen. I was gonna make chicken soup with matzo balls that fiddle faddle posted, but no, dh and ds voted tenderloin. GEEEESHHH!!!

Quick on-topic-question-- Is it ok for a forty-something woman to oooogle a 30-something man if said man is a perfect stranger working on a construction site in public baring oh so nice abs and perfect tan? Just wondering in case that might ever happen.......

Yeah, that is weird, matzo soup or pork, now that I noticed that. Geesh, I am weird, huh?

OOGLE AND GOOGLE! :D

Guest Robbin

:blink::blink: Oh, no, no not Fabio, more like rock star-maybe kinda Jon Bon Jovi--ish. Not that I look too close of course while going out of my way to the grocery store every day -sometimes twice- er, I mean if I would do that....

Omg, that commercial... too crazy, cracked me up the first time I saw it.

So, when did this Fabio phobia start, girlfriend??

btw, girls, I saw in the grocery line the headlines on the mags---JOHNNY DEPP TIED THE KNOT!!! Why was this not on CNN????

DingoGirl Enthusiast

JON BON JOVI????? oh Lordy yes, go for it and oogle for me too.....I am deeply in love with JBJ also....forgot about him (not in love with his music, though, just him)...

Fabio Phobia....happened the first time I saw him, I think, but esp. when that poor goose (was it one of ours, from OMG??) hit him in the nose on the rollercoaster....

AndreaB Contributor

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      Are Bobresmill gluten free oats ok for sensitive celiacs?
    • jenniber
      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease does damage to the small bowel lining it often results in nutritional deficiencies such as anemia. NCGS does not damage the small bowel lining so your history of anemia may suggest you have celiac disease as opposed to NCGS. But either way, a gluten-free diet is in order. NCGS can cause bodily damage in other ways, particularly to neurological systems.
