I'm originally from NY where something like wet pavement does NOT get a snow day. But I woke up this morning and my university is closed over a wimpy wet sidewalk and an inch of snow on the grass, happy surprise! (I'm in TX), Anyone have any fun snow day ideas?

Well of course you should spend the day studying!!

Or maybe bake some gluten-free cookies and lounge around feeling pleased with yourself for getting a free day off!

Well, I don't know about yall, but I have had enough of this cold weather. I want my kids to go back to school! And I couldn't even take my dd to her 9 month check up cuz the dr couldn't even leave her home! She was frozen in! And my kids keep coming in from outside all wet and freezing.

I live in Tx so I don't have to deal w/ the cold weather! I want it GONE! The north can have it all back!

Do either of you live in north texas? i'm a member of the ntgig, which is one of the biggest gluten intolerance groups out there, and they are so helpful with cooking/finding places to eat!

Nope, I am in central Tx, halfway between houston and Austin. We have no local groups here. The closest one is about 45 minutes away. Too far for me!

And let me just say, I am so glad that everything is thawing out! I was really getting tired of staying inside!

Is that around San Antonio? There is one there! But maybe my geography is all wrong...

Growing up in the great state of Texas I remember having snow days once in awhile. My dad still lives in TX and before he retired he did auto claims adjustments. He loved snow days, lol. Now living in Missouri the kids have been out of school 4 days this week, one of my employees is about to go nuts. When we used to ave snow days in rural West Texas we would build forts and have snow ball fights. Then go in for cookies and cocoa. Good memories. :rolleyes:

Jenny....where are YOU? I'm in Missouri too. Just missed that huge ice storm to the north. Those folks are still without power after more than 2 weeks.

      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.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!
