I've actually never bought "the protection" :lol: I was embarassed enough by the Immodium....

DingoGirl Enthusiast
I can remember those days... I used to throw them up on the counter, look the cashier right in the eye think to myself "yeah, I'm getting some tonight - you got a problem with that?"

:P

:lol::lol:

It was more of the combination....drinking, pooping, sex :D .....considering it was ALL we bought (around 10 pm on a Friday night). It looked rather "amusing"

:lol::lol:

Now there's a date for ya! :P

yup, I'd take it.... ;) (not necessarily in that order - probably pooping last)

She's not ill-tempered though.

Someone should send her a pm inviting her to this thread. Laura could use another ish-ish. Were there any other ish-ish's?

I'm an ish-ish!! About half-wayish to fortyish :lol:

I was going to try to stay and play but I need to go lay down; I was an idiot last night and ate something when I wasn't sure if it was safe or not....I'm paying for it now :(

Look forward to catching up later!

You guys :lol::lol::lol::lol:

hahahaha, Patti, that made me laugh.

One of my personal favorites was buying beer (for hubby), Imodium in large quantities (for me), and um, "protection" (for both of us, so yall figure that one out.) I stood in line with a straight face and was beet red.

Back before I was Catholic (now it's all a matter of timing things), the funniest was when Adam bought a bottle of wine, a box of "protection", and a package of diapers!!! :lol:

Jessica,

Hope you feel better quickly. Don't be too hard on yourself.

Still premature posting....

Reading about nail polish and movies. :D

I'm like Liz....a grown-up TOMBOY....I could never deal with nail polish...plus I was always biting my nails off anyway. All I have to say is thank Gaaaaawd I wasnt swallowing them! GROSS! :blink: I think I have enough problems already...balls of nails in my tummy....now that would really SUCK! (as if my other stuff doesnt suck :rolleyes:)

When I hit 30 for some reason I became more girly...dunno what happened. :huh: Yes...I'm still tomboy but now I actually have dresses and femine clothes....I also wear bras now. Real bras...not sport bras. :P

Oh...and then I started painting my nails....ALL THE TIME. :o

My nails grow pretty fast and decent now that I dont chew them off....thing is that since I got sick they are kinda weird. Like SUPER hard...cant explain it....they dont really break cuz they're almost indestructible now. My mom says this is a good thing....I'm thinking NO....not a good sign. If they do break its almost like breaking a piece of plastic. Part of its broken and I have a hard time just breaking the whole thing off so I can just get on with my day.

I dont paint my nails anymore cuz the fumes would probably make me delerious...BUT I miss painting them. :(

When I used to wear polish it would only last about 2 days and they'd be all chipped...looking like I had put the polish on a month before. Even though I'm sensitive I'd still try to wear polish if it at least lasted longer than 2 days. I cant be reapplying the stuff that frequently....so NO polish for me.

I do wear lipgloss....clear only though. I wear it over my lipstick....I cant have no gloss on my lips...it drives me crazy.

Favorites movie....I'll have to ponder this. I LOVE romantic comedies...suspense, its all good except the Sci-Fi stuff....I cant deal with that. Romantic comedies though....even though they are WAY too predictable. :)

What else???

Oh yeah...Susan NOOOOO....You musnt get sucked into the Krispy Kreme donuts world! Who knows what could happen??? :unsure:

Think about the nuggets addiction....what if this happened with gluteny donuts?? Would we ever see you again?? :o

Have to say....I never had a Krispy Kreme. :(

Took the whole thing for granted....thought they'd always be there....putting it off for another day. You never know what you COULD have had...until its gone. <_<

Oh well....when I'm all better I'm headed there myself. I gotta find out if I'm really gluten intolerant at some point right?? Might as well start with a Krispy Kreme donut....my first one ever!! :D

Be back later for more catching up.

CarlaB Enthusiast
I always wondered if that worked...guess not :unsure:

I don't know, I met a woman once who used it, she was older than I was, and her eyes looked GREAT!! There is an old picture of Adam and I on his dresser from 1999, I look older, had bags under my eyes, and my face was puffy. gluten-free is a beauty secret in its own right!

They even use duct tape as a "lift" for their assets.

No, no, no, it's masking tape ... imagine pulling duct tape off!!!! I've used that secret since I was about 16. The first time I did it around hubby, he couldn't imagine what I was doing!!!! :lol: Once at the academy awards one of the stars used a little too much and it was showing! :huh:

OMG--that is SO true! I have a picture that was taken about 5 months before my dx. I was at a function, so I was dressed up, had makeup on and thought I looked ok. I felt awful, though. Anyway, I came across it recently and scanned it onto the computer. What a difference between that and the picture that was my former avatar. The difference in my face was astounding! I wish I could put up a 'before and after.'

My daughter had a friend in HS who made her prom dress out of duct tape and her date made a tux. She said it was really pretty! But, they don't stick it to the body for clothes.

This is the second time today I've read about this appropriately named bread -- at least they have a sense of humor! WHERE CAN I BUY SOME!!!!

Don't be scared, I am here ... just got back from washing my car -- even had enough energy to vacuum it out and clean the windows!! Then I went to the grocery and bought myself a porterhouse steak -- I always have leftovers for breakfast, nothing as good as steak and eggs!! Now, I need to get cooking!! Then, relaxation for the rest of the evening, I'm supposed to be banking this energy, not using it.

      I had a very rough month after diagnosis. No exaggeration, lost so much inflammatory weight, I looked like a bag of bones, underneath i had been literally starving to death. I did start feeling noticeably better after a month of very strict control of my kitchen and home. What are you eating for breakfast and lunch? I ignored my doc and ate oats, yes they were gluten free, but some brands are at the higher end of gluten free. Lots of celics can eat Bob's Red Mill gluten-free oats, but not me. I can now eat them, but they have to be grown and processed according to the "purity protocol" methods. I mail order them, Montana Gluten-Free brand. A food and symptoms and activities log can be helpful in tracking down issues. You might be totally aware, but I have to mention about the risk of airborne gluten. As the doc that diagnosed me warned . . Remember eyes, ears, nose, and mouth all lead to your stomach and intestines.  Are you getting any cross contamination? Airborne gluten? Any pets eating gluten (they eat it, lick themselves, you pet them...)? Any house remodeling? We live in an older home, always fixing something. I've gotten glutened from the dust from cutting into plaster walls, possibly also plywood (glues). The suggestions by many here on vitamin supplements also really helped me. I had some lingering allergies and asthma, which are now 99% gone. I was taking Albuterol inhaler every hour just to breathe, but thiamine in form of benfotiamine kicked that down to 1-2 times a day within a few days of starting it. Also, since cutting out inflammatory seed oils (canola, sunflower, grapeseed, etc) and cooking with real olive oil, avocado oil, ghee, and coconut oil, I have noticed even greater improvement overall and haven't used the inhaler in months! It takes time to weed out everything in your life that contains gluten, and it takes awhile to heal and rebuild your health. At first it's mentally exhausting, overwhelming, even obsessive, but it gets better and second nature.

      Hi,  I care for my seven year old daughter with Celiac. After watching her for months, I have figured out that she has problem with two kinds of fats- animal fat and cooking oils. It basically makes her intestine sore enough that she feels spasms when she is upset. It only happens on days when she has eaten more fat than her usual every day diet. (Her usual diet has chia seeds, flaxseeds, and avocado/ pumpkin seeds for fat and an occasional chicken breast.) I stopped using cooking oils last year, and when I reintroduced eggs and dairy, both of which I had held off for a few months thinking it was an issue of the protein like some Celiac patients habe mentioned to be the case, she has reacted in the same fashion as she does with excess fats. So now I wonder if her reaction to dairy and eggs is not really because of protein but fat.   I don't really have a question, just wondering if anyone finds this familiar and if it gets better with time.  Thank you.

      Hello, My name is Chanda and you are not the only one that gose through the same things. I have found that what's easiest for me is finding a few meals each week that last. I have such severe reactions to gluten that it shuts my entire body down. I struggle everyday with i can't eat enough it feels like, when I eat more I lose more weight. Make sure that you look at medication, vitamins and shampoo and conditioner also. They have different things that are less expensive at Walmart.

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.
