At this holiday time, I'd like everyone to stop for just a moment with me,

And say a big

THANK YOU

For never having to politely choke down another piece of fruitcake again!

I also don't miss fruitcake - I used to get one every year from my boss. I finally escaped from it. :D

No! I love fruit cake too. In fact, I haven't ever had fruitcake I didn't like. I miss it! (But my thighs don't...)

I like fruitcake (a high quality one!). I also really like your picture :)

I was glad however, to be able to turn down all those horrendously fattening and sugar loaded sweets that I really wouldn't have enjoyed even if I could have eaten them!!! Huzzah!

I'm on another message board with a lot of "foodies" where the discussion was what your most hated food was. Over half said brussels sprouts. Brussels sprouts are one of my favorites. It just goes to show you that for every food that someone hates, another person is going back for seconds.

I've heard that the thing with fruitcake is that when it's done right it's wonderful, but when it's done wrong it's just so very, very wrong. Just like brussels sprouts... ;)

Mmmmmm.... Brussel sprouts.... Making my mouth water. Fruit cake on the other hand is something I can definitely live without.

Yea--I like brussel sprouts, but I just don't like the taste of candied fruit--so I've never even tried fruitcake. :ph34r:

      When I was still recovering my gastroenterologist suggested I bought lactofree product as I was very bloated. So I bought some from the supermarket and from memory, I drank a nice big glass of milk - and it went right through me literally within an hour or so, if my memory serves correctly. I came off dairy completely next and it worked like a charm...

      @trents thank you! I have only been taking 20mg 1x a day. Maybe I need to increase it.

      When I was still recovering my gastroenterologist suggested I bought lactofree product as I was very bloated.  So I bought some from the supermarket and from memory, I drank a nice big glass of milk - and it went right through me literally within an hour or so, if my memory serves correctly.  I came off dairy completely next and it worked like a charm, but started to reintroduce quite gradually it as I missed it! To this day, if I overdo dairy products, they work like a mild laxative.  I've never wanted to give up milk completely as I like it so much, and my mum had osteoporosis and it's an easy way of getting calcium.  But it doesn't really 'sit' well with me.   You may need to experiment a bit as when I was healing certain dairy products were worse than others - I could cope with one brand of Greek yoghurt, but I got extremely and painfully bloated with another brand of live British yoghurt.

      i have been strictly gluten free for 7 months. this includes avoiding anything that may contain gluten and making sure surfaces and appliances are clean. i am 18 years old in australia and my tTG-IgA results were 69U/mL, pretty low compared to most people's, for reference. i feel the exact same as before. sure, i was pretty much asymptomatic/silent. the worst i'd get was occasionally bad stools and pitting of the nails/brittle hair since early childhood - and i was diagnosed with low iron and vitamin d which checks out due to easy bruising and such. but those symptoms have remained. maybe i'm jumping the gun, sure. i know it can take years to fully heal. but being over half a year in, i feel that i should be, y'know, healing. i'm nearly at my wits end and wondering if i should have a piece of bread or something to see how i go - to see if i possibly have refractory? my mental health is declining as i feel myself wanting to bang my head against a damn wall out of frustration every day. cravings haven't gotten better. look, i love the stuff i still can have, like salads and such. OH! i haven't lost any weight, which is mind boggling considering i eat very healthily now! i've always been on the chubbier side which is atypical of coeliac. i just don't know what's going on with me. i try to remain hopeful but i'm just so sad all the time. thanks for reading

If you must use a PPI, I certainly would advise taking the lowest dose that is effective for you.
