Carla - silly you, Whole Paycheck is what we call Whole Foods! So you go to Whole Foods/Paycheck and just go to their gluten-free section, get the Sandwich Bread. Be warned, it has eggs and dairy....not a prob for me but I know for many....I will splurge on this as do get sick of the other cardboard I eat.

Washign the car....ugh....mine is currently just a stinky dog kennel on wheels...can't wait until I win the lottery (uh, guess I have to remember to buytickets to win? :huh: ) and I can just hand the keys over to the dogs, and say, here you go girls, the stinky jeep is all yours, knock yourselves out!! And then I can get my nice, clean, civilized hybrid SUV....whatever that will be.....

Okay is a porterhouse a good steak? I think I always buy rib-eye, don't know my cuts of meat very well (only what I learn on Dave Letterman)....

LOL :lol::lol::lol: I didn't know the nickname for Whole Foods, but in my defense, we don't have Whole Foods ... We have Wild Oats.

A t-bone is basically a porterhouse without the tenderloin. It's good, but you don't get the tender part, but with the porterhouse you do. It's a huge, expensive steak!! New York Strip is one of the most flavorful cuts. Filets are more tender but not as tasty. For any more info, you'd have to ask the butcher ... that's all I know!

I have two minis ... one is a Mini Cooper, the other is a mini-van! Adam wanted to replace the mini-van with something else. I told him that I'd hate any car that seats 8, so why waste perfectly good money on a car to haul kids around. He really wanted me to have a new car (he always has had a nice car), so I said to get me a fun car since I hardly drive with all the kids, but it has to have a back seat because I would hardly ever get to drive a two-seater. So, he got me a MINI. I keep it very clean ... the van on the other hand, it's no longer my car, so I never clean it!! But the kids do occasionally.

:blink: Quick drive by--feeling so-so---

Hey, nothing, imho, beats a NY strip steak. Preparation H--omg, I worked for a bit in the fashion industry in college--part-time, no biggie, but the product used then was anusol-the creme-not fishy, lol. I think it would take a truckload the way my eyes look today, lol.

Susan, I used your word when I went into the kitchen a little while ago. Ds was on the phone with one of his buds--I announced, "This kitchen is heinous!" Z says to his friend in his beavis voice--heh, heh, my mom said "heinous", heh, heh, rhymes with anus, lol." Teenagers are so fun....

An embarrassing moment with his brother--I am in the CVS when my oldest was around 14 and he was in another aisle and yells loudly, "Hey, Mom!! Here's the Preparation H you were looking for, and the Depends are over here too!!!" Sheesh. I don't know who they get it from.......... :blink:

Gotta go... maybe back later... Richard, hmmm. I think you are a nut. I like that, lol. :lol:

I think it took 20 minutes to catch up on this thread and that is only since this morning.

I am not going to have Broncobucs take a photo of my hair as I am not going to spike it tomorrow. The length is still new to me and I just played with it this morning for a kind of normal hairdo. I will play with spiking it myself at a later time. I will make sure when I get my haircut in 3 weeks that I take my camera and have her take some photo's with it spiked. My hair is only about 1 1/2" long and that is why I needed to play with it. So, I am sorry you will have to wait to see the old lady with spiked hair.

I only wear a french manicure, but my tips are cream instead of white. I chip nail polish too bad and so that is what my manicurist does. Then it is not noticable if it slightly chips. I really hate chipped nail polish. My toes have no nail polish on them as I cannot bend to take it off if it chips. She gives me a pedicure once a month and I am about the only one she has that uses no polish. If I was wearing nail polish on my toes and hands, it would be matching. I am a type A personality.

What does "premature posting" mean?

so glad to help, Robbin! Heinous is such an excellent word...everyone in my life uses it (and many others, words friends and I made up in jr. high/high school - still in use!)....love the story of your teenage son yelling in the store....I've done that to friends, as a grownup :ph34r:

Anyone else suffering through the news to see the CBS piece on celiac tonight??

was reading on that other thread - am I the only one that likes Katie Couric? :huh: not suffering for me....am alerting many peeps in my life to turn it on....

made an attempt at Bumble Bars.....what a pisser....not so good thus far...they are in a slow oven right now, but, the sesame seeds tasted really bitter when I sampled :angry: we will see how big a debacle this really is (debacle - another favorite and you just can't use it enough IMO :lol: )

What does "premature posting" mean?

GAHHHHH!!! :lol::lol::lol: that is from the OMG thread - - there were always so many pages, and we would get excited and start writing before we had read them all....hence, premature post....there is also a POST-mature post, I think, maybe when something went on pages/days ago and then responding? :P

Robbin--My husband likes to goof around a lot (understatement) and has done the same thing to me! He'll say in a loud voice: Hey Patti--did you forget your Preparation H? Then I get him back with something like: Thanks, did you remember to pick up your ear wax remover? :lol:

It's not that I don't like Katie Couric, it's that I don't like network news.

Carla- But it's even stranger when you're teaching them in the same room you took YOUR freshamn writing class in and now all you can think about is academic stuff. As opposed to back when all I could think about was how cute the graduate student was that was teaching the class. :ph34r:

Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      By catnapt · Posted

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.
