I would have rather seen Chris or Phil go home first too. Oh well!

Next week is going to be country week with Martina McBride. That should be fun!

I know, I am anxious to see what Blake does next week. He seems to be able to pull off any kind of music. I think the following week is when they do their inspirational songs because it is the special show.

Wasn't the scene with the little girl drawing the picture of Simon with boobs cute. I think that was the first time I ever saw him turn red.

Guhlia Rising Star

Oh my gosh, that was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO funny!!!!!!!!! That was worth a whole season of Sanjaya!

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

Sanjaya is more of a joke on that show than anything else. I honestly think that is why people are voting for him. For all the people who think he is cute I wish I saw what they see....maybe its just me.

Guhlia Rising Star

Nope, it's not just you. I think he's pathetic and not very attractive either. I don't get what the teenage girls could possibly see in him, but whatever. He REALLY needs to shave off that thing on his lip though. That was grossing me out.

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

I know...I am wondering if the stach is a attention thing like when he had the hat one night and then the mohawk.

confused Community Regular

I was so happy to see haley go. It was nice it was an hour long last night also. I dont like when elimination night is 30 minutes.

I cant wait for country night. I will have to record next week also. Why do my kids always have to have soccer or spring concerts on a tuesday lol

So what other types of weeks do they have? Country week is next week. I think 80's week would be cool!!!

I was glad Lakisha stayed. I wish Phil could grow hair on his head as quickly as Sanjaya grew that facial fluff.

:lol: It's funny too, cuz I actually like that shaved or close cut look on many guys, but I tend to agree with you on this one, lol.

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

Some guys look real good with shaved heads, but Phil reminds me of a patient undergoing chemo. He has a very sickly look to him.

Guhlia Rising Star

Ok guys, it's Tuesday! What did everyone think?

***SPOILER***

I actually thought Sanjaya was decent again this week. I'd much rather see Chris go before him now. I can't stand Chris' nasal voice. Especially now that I know he's doing it on purpose. Yuck!

You guys know what a huge Blake Lewis fan I am, but this week I thought he totally bombed. I thought it was really bad. My husband disagreed with me and said he thought it was ok, but not great. I could barely listen to it and I normally love Blake. He's by far my favorite.

Melinda! Jordin! WOW!!!

lonewolf Collaborator

I didn't get to see all of it, but I thought that Melinda was great and Blake wasn't. Phil seemed more at home with this type of music, but I still don't like him. Jordin was the only other one that I thought was any good.

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

We were at the vet and didn't get to see the begining. I was not too amused last night. It was hard to keep my attention. I am not a big country fan to begin with but I don't think it was that. I have to say Blake was not that great. I do like Jordin. I was in the laundry room for Sanjaya although I did catch the hair.

I think I missed Haley's spunkiness this week. She did liven up the show in a way.

I think next week might be a little more fun.

Cheri A Contributor

I thought that Jordin and Melinda were really good. Blake was just OK to me. I normally don't like Phil, but I thought his singing was a bit better than it usually is. I liked LaKisha's song better than the last few weeks, but maybe it's cuz I like the song. I thought that Chris and Sanjaya were terrible!! I think I missed Haley too!

dlp252 Apprentice

Yep, I'd have to agree with most of the comments so far. Like Jordin, Melinda and even Phil the best. Much prefer Phil without the hats though, lol. It's too scary with the hats.

Just couldn't watch Sanjaya again. His song wasn't as horrible as some weeks, but that hair/scarf thing...wow, lol.

confused Community Regular

Well I missed most of it. My son had his spring program. I did make it to see melinda and blake. I personally think melinda was terrible. i did not like her at all. I did like blakes, i think he did a good job, not an awesome job, but i liked it. I wish I would seen more, but from many of your post I dont think i missed too much. I think i got to see the best singers in the world lol

I am just not a Chris fan. I liked him in the beginning for the first week and then it went downhill.

Jo.R Contributor

LOL! It's so funny the different takes everyone has on it. I guess I'm the odd one out. I really dislike country music, but I enjoyed last night more than any other. It wasn't as boring. I do agree Phil was in his element and did well, but I thought Blake was great and I enjoyed Melinda. I'm sick of Lakisha, she can sing but there is something in her personality that puts me off. Of course I think Sanjaya should go this week, but it will probably be Chris, which works too.

I'd have to say ditto here. Not a huge country fan myself, but I also enjoyed this show more than the others recently.

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

My mom watched and she is an old-time country fan, into Dolly Parton. She really didn't think these songs sounded very country.

I would have liked to hear them sing a Dixie Chicks song.

Guhlia Rising Star

The new wave of country music really isn't very country anymore. Your mom is right, Amanda. I do have to admit though, I really like country music, both old and new. They all picked relatively un-country country songs, which is fine as most of America probably isn't very into the old style country music.

I really hope if Sanjaya doesn't go home tonight that Chris will. I don't think I can stand watching him one more week. He annoys me. :)

Boy do we think alike...one of them better be going home or I am going to find something else to do on Tuesday nights. ;)

HawkFire Explorer

I think Lakeisha is going home. I thought this last week, too. I like her. I really liked how Simon scolded Melinda about the cutesy "YOu think I'm GOOD" act. That was a nice thing to have what I've been thinking voiced. Thank you Simon. I just laughed and laughed at Sanjaya. I'm ready for him to go home. He's had a good run. I wouldn't buy an album from any of these singers. I'm not interested in any of their voices.

Guhlia Rising Star

WOO-HOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol::lol::lol:

      I did ... But aren't we going to be vitamin deficienct if we are not eating due to being sick ?? If the food we eat is gluten free and we have other sensitivities , how do we get out of the cycle??  Thank you 
    • Colleen H
      Anyone else get pins and needles. ??? Burning feeling ? Heat makes it so much worse 😔  Winter is here.  I had to lower my thermostat because I couldn't take that hot air feeling 😔  Hopefully it goes away soon

      I assume that you already know that genetic testing for celiac disease cannot be used to confirm a celiac diagnosis. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. It can be used to rule out celiac disease with a high degree of confidence, however, in the case where the genetic testing is negative for the genes. Until and unless you are actually diagnosed with celiac disease I would not raise this as an issue with family. However, if you are diagnosed with celiac disease through blood antibody testing and/or endoscopy with positive biopsy I would suggest you encourage first degree relatives to also purse testing because there is a significant chance (somewhere betwee 10% and almost 50%, depending on which studies you reference) that they will also have or will develop active celiac disease. Often, there are symptoms are absent or very minor until damage to the small bowel lining or other body systems becomes significant so be prepared that they may blow you off. We call this "silent celiac disease".

      If you were off gluten for two months that would have been long enough to invalidate the celiac blood antibody testing. Many people make the same mistake. They experiment with the gluten free diet before seeking formal testing. Once you remove gluten from the diet the antibodies stop being produced and those that are already in circulation begin to be removed and often drop below detectable levels. To pursue valid testing for celiac disease you would need to resume gluten consumption equivalent to the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread daily for at least two weeks, preferably longer. These are the most recent guidelines for the "gluten challenge". Without formal testing there is no way to distinguish between celiac disease and gluten sensitivity since their symptoms overlap. However, celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that damages the small bowel lining, not true of gluten sensitivity. There is no test available for gluten sensitivity so celiac disease must first be ruled out. By the way, elevated liver enzymes was what led to my celiac diagnosis almost 25 years ago.
    • trents
      Then it does not seem to me that a gluten-related disorder is at the heart of your problems, unless that is, you have refractory celiac disease. But you did not answer my question about how long you had been eating gluten free before you had the blood antibody test for celiac disease done.
