Happy Sunday all!! I'm on a roll, three days of feeling good! My hubby said today when we were at Wild Oats that it was obvious I was feeling better because I was dragging him around and trying to get him to hurry up when I had been just following him around like a puppy for the past couple months.

I really enjoyed my piece of donut and cup of coffee!

Susan, glad the Bulldogs lost.

I live in the Buckeye state!

Tavi, I miss Morgan, too. :(

Hope everyone is feeling great today!

Where's Richard ... his wife must be feeling better. ;)

Vincent, make your son clean up his own pee. Don't stress too much ... not many kids go to kindergarten with diapers on! :lol:

Celia, glad Publix is carrying more for you!!

Hi to everyone else!

Tavi! What are you talking about, an exchange with Scott? missed that one....don't care....we love you, Silly....let's see, my nut bars were an attempt at homemade Bumble Bars....really good but I hate too many....had a very tender stomach last night..... :huh:

I cannot recommend it highly enough!! I truly think that even with other health issues, it would help literally everyone. We all push ourselves way harder than our bodies are designed for and though I don't think it's a cure-all for everyone, I certainly think it would help everyone get better faster while they address their other ailments as well -- for me, no gluten or dairy (or legumes, it seems).

I realize that I was relying on exercise, caffeine and sugar to stimulate my adrenal glands just to get by. It was very tempting the past couple weeks to just drink a cup of coffee, or do a strenuous workout, just to have the temporary boost, but I realized I need to fix this problem for real. It would definately mean no more nuggets for you ... unless it's the chicken ones. :lol:

My face has been breaking out like mad lately

My face is breaking out too, I don't know what is going on. It was clear as clear could be and then I started using Bare Minerals make-up. After that, it started to break ou, and now it's all broken out. I have since stopped using the make-up, and I have tried to eliminate all kinds of things, one by one, trying to get to the source but no such luck. :(

Susie, glad you got your revenge yesterday :lol:

I'm excited and nervous all in one, my 2 favorite teams, Chargers and Steelers, are playing each other TONIGHT!!!! Yikes!

Have a good Sunday everyone!

Yea, after a few weeks you could do as I do and treat yourself to ONE on Sunday. When you're feeling better, I think willpower is easier to come by ... I allow myself only a piece of a gluten-free donut ... I certainly don't want to fall into my old habits and feel like garbage again.

I was so thrilled that I didn't have to drive 1/2 hours away... when I went to check out, the cashier looked at my stuff and said... "wow... you eat healthy is that how you stay so skinny?".... :lol: ... I said "no, I have Celiac Disease and eating this way is helping me gain my weight back."... and she says... "My husband has diabetes too"...... :lol::lol: .... I just smiled... she was trying to be sweet.

:lol::lol:

Sounds like her hearing is about like mine. :P

From Mitch: If you would have told her your name, she probably would have called you Sally or Sue, or... :lol:

Just tell your wife, he's not ready, try again in three months. It's not worth the stress ... really. It's easy to teach them when they're ready, it's impossible when they're not! I had one I had to do this with, when we tried again in a couple months, it was easy.

Glad your class went well. I worked with college students ... fortunately, I wrote down what I taught and could reuse it with other groups. The lesson there -- keep your notes!!

Juliem, Broncobucs is going to be at the game tonight - on the Steelers side. A friend of his, who plays for the Steelers, sent him tickets. So, Broncobucs drove from Tempe, AZ today for the game and will drive home to Las Vegas tomorrow (I think that is what he said).

No, I did not meet him for lunch yesterday as I had put in a very rough night on Friday and had to cancel. Which really urked me. It is hard to get my hubby to drive 1 1/2 hrs round trip for pizza and here he was willing to do that yesterday. The pizza at Picazzo's pizza is so very good and I will now have to wait a few more months to get there again.

Oh, don't ask who Broncobucs Steeler friend is. He told me when I asked, but I am not a sports person and so it flew right out of my pea brain. I would assume that his friend went to Ohio State University as Chris did.

How fabulous for him!!! There are a couple of players on the Steelers that played for Ohio State, lucky guy to have a connection and to be at the game.

I will be at home watching the game, nervous, ulceritic conditions going on in the stomach :lol:

Susie Q, I got NUGGETS :ph34r::ph34r::ph34r:

OMG, they are soooooo good. Look what you started

Not good to have a bag of nuggets watching my two favorite teams play, with a nervous stomach :lol:

I predict the bag will be gone by half time :ph34r:

So sorry you had to cancel your plans Armetta, I hope you get to feeling better soon :)

Where's Richard ... his wife must be feeling better. ;)

What, no girls on trampolines? :huh:

I'm happy to report that the "old lady", er little missus is feeling better. She's at her over 30 soccer game tonite. The kids are in bed, so I get to play for a few minutes!

Weird weekend....First the whole getaway that wasn't, then brawling over which fridge to buy (I won :) ), then the Yankees lose to the Tigers :angry: , then no romantic evening (see who won the fridge :( ), then I wake up at 3:00 and I'm having an asthma attack and can't get back to sleep, then MAry gets up and sleeps in Maddys' bed (kids at g'mas house) because all my tossing and turning is keeping her up :huh: , THEN I go to order the fridge and have a HUGE FIASCO at Home Depot (I HATE that store! :angry: ), then we go off and have a nice family day at the local historic saw mill, then I go to change the oil in the car when I come home, and get the oil drained, go to fill it up again, and I can't get the filler cap off...turns out the cap WON"T COME OFF if the oil/engine is HOT - for my SAFETY (NOT MY SANITY) :angry: ...an hr and a half into a 15 minute oil change the cap magically comes loose, then I'm reading a story to Olivia (4yo ) when I hear a thud and a bump and the wailing of my 2 yo (Maddy) I thought she had put herself to bed (wishful thinking!) instead she was in her room emptying a tube of KY Jelly (we can talk about that heree :) ) on herself, her dresser, her wall, her bed and her carpet. Thank GOD it was KY and not Vaseline or something else greasy! I just got that cleaned up and Olivia went to sleep (ANGEL :rolleyes: ) and Maddy was right behind her.

Aside from that my weekend has been VERY uneventful :P

So when do the girls on trampolines start?

      Challenges eating gluten before biopsy

      For those who will likely remain gluten-free for life anyway due to well-known symptoms they have when eating gluten, my general advice is to ignore any doctors who push to go through a gluten challenge to get a formal diagnosis--and this is especially true for those who have severe symptoms when they eat gluten. It can take months, or even years to recover...

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      It has been the most terrible illness ever! Going on 3 weeks now… I had chicken pox as a kid… crazy how much havoc this dormant virus has caused after being reactivated! No idea what even caused it to fire back up. I’m scared this pain and sensitivity is just never going to improve or go away

      Challenges eating gluten before biopsy

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      For those who will likely remain gluten-free for life anyway due to well-known symptoms they have when eating gluten, my general advice is to ignore any doctors who push to go through a gluten challenge to get a formal diagnosis--and this is especially true for those who have severe symptoms when they eat gluten. It can take months, or even years to recover from such a challenge, so why do this if you already know that gluten is the culprit and you won't be eating it anyway?  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS--but those in this group will usually have negative tests, or at best, elevated antibodies that don't reach the level of official positive. Unfortunately test results for celiac disease are not always definitive, and many errors can be made when doing an endoscopy for celiac disease, and they can happen in many ways, for example not collecting the samples in the right areas, not collecting enough samples, or not interpreting the results properly and giving a Marsh score.  Many biopsy results can also be borderline, where there may be certain damage that could be associated with celiac disease, but it just doesn't quite reach the level necessary to make a formal diagnosis. The same is true for blood test results. Over the last 10 years or so a new "Weak Positive" range has been created by many labs for antibody results, which can simply lead to confusion (some doctors apparently believe that this means the patient can decide if they want more testing or to go gluten-free). There is no "Weak Negative" category, for example. Many patients are not told to eat gluten daily, lots of it, for the 6-8 week period leading up to their blood test, nor asked whether or not they've been eating gluten. Some patients even report to their doctors that they've been gluten-free for weeks or months before their blood tests, yet their doctors incorrectly say nothing to them about how this can affect their test, and create false negative results. Many people are not routinely given a total IGA blood test when doing a blood screening, which can lead to false negative interpretations if the patient has low IGA. We've seen on this forum many times that some doctors who are not fully up on how interpret the blood test results can tell patients that the don't need to follow a gluten-free diet or get more testing because only 1 of the 2 or 3 tests done in their panel is positive (wrong!), and the other 1 or 2 tests are negative.  Dermatologists often don't know how to do a proper skin biopsy for dermatitis herpetiformis, and when they do it wrongly their patient will continue to suffer with terrible DH itching, and all the risks associated with celiac disease. For many, the DH rash is the only presentation of celiac disease. These patients may end up on strong prescriptions for life to control their itching which also may have many negative side effects, for example Dapsone. Unfortunately many people will continue to suffer needlessly and eat gluten due to these errors in performing or interpreting celiac disease tests, but luckily some will find out about non-celiac gluten sensitivity on their own and go gluten-free and recover from their symptoms. Consider yourself lucky if you've figured out that gluten is the source of your health issues, and you've gone gluten-free, because many people will never figure this out.
