:P Very nice! I see that the vote for the worst people are encouraged to vote for Phil this week...if he continues like last week that wouldn't be the worst that could happen, lol.

Self evaluations... Ugh... Just say you kick butt and leave it at that... Think they'd accept that???

Phil's definitely getting better again. I can't imagine he'll make it into the top 3 though. He's just not as good as the others. I really really really hope that Chris goes this week. I don't think I can stand another week of his nasal nonsense. It drives me batty!

Phil was good in the beginning, we sang that Edwin Mcain song and I enjoyed it. Chris really bores me. John likes him, but John seems to be liking the underdogs....to each their own I guess :)

Who do you think will be in the top three?

I'm guessing:

Melinda

Jordin

Phil

I didn't put Blake in there because I believe with the VFTW votes, (and Blake has already been in the bottom three! :( ) he'll be voted out. I keep hoping for a miracle and Melinda will be voted off. She doesn't need American Idol. Apparently, she's the greatest singer in the known universe and she'll get a record deal no matter what at this point... so why not let her get voted off?

:o:blink::rolleyes: No stinking way! Seriously, he got a record deal?!?! That really cracks me up!!

Angie ~ I'm with you....Chris's time is up, but Phil better be right behind him.

And, hey, I love the new avatar and the Marcia Brady voice! :P

Amanda ~ good luck getting your self evaluation done. Those are hard!!

I have to work tonight so TIVO better not screw up!!

:lol: Yep, me too, but I bet they can make him sound a whole lot better with all the electronic gizmos they have these days...kind of the electronic version of airbrushing. :lol:

I am not sure who signed him, but my mom said he and Donny Osmond were signing at the white house. You are right he can get his voice gizmoed and sound out of this world. What will he do when he goes on tour though?

Portable gizmos, lol? :unsure::lol: Actually, his concerts would probably be filled with screaming teenage girls who wouldn't be listening anyway. :lol:

I actually thought Sanjaya had a very nice voice, just way too quiet and unconfident. Plus, he was a horrible performer. His voice though, especially for a recording studio, would be great. I'd be willing to bet his first album will do very well. Plus, the record companies would have to be a fool not to snatch him up with all the controversy surrounding him. It won't just end now that he got voted off of Idol. He will probably do very well in the business. I think he's the only one who I never thought sang off key once throughout the entire competition. He just doesn't project at all. I think after making the record and meeting with hundreds of coaches, he will come out of his shell.

I'm totally with you guys on Chris. He's gotta go. And with Phil right in his footsteps hopefully. The two of them just aren't good enough at this point. I think Jordin is just getting better and better each week and Blake and Melinda are already amazing. That leaves just Lakisha, Phil, or Chris to get voted off this week. I'm crossing my fingers that it's Chris, but I think realistically it may be LaKisha that leaves next.

After last nights perfomance I have no idea who I want gone. I do think lakisha did an bad job on her song, only fantasia can do that song justice. I think jordin was amazing. Blake wasnt that great but he there was not much he could of done to that song anyway. It did give me goosebumps tho.

I actually even voted last night, well when i could get threw.

I didn't see it last night, I had a bit of an emergency situation with a neighbor and by the time that was all settled and done it was almost 9 so I missed the whole show.

My mom said Phil did real well.

Phil did do an awesome job, I got goosebumps from his song also. I just wish they would lessen his eyebrows or dye them lighter, i think that would make him look better and not so scary looking at times lol

I actually didn't really care for Phil's performance, though much better than some other weeks. I think LaKisha may go this week... She really just isn't cutting it anymore. I actually think that Jordin may pull off the win this year! She's definitely coming from the underdog position, but I think she may pull it off. She went from mediocre to excellent and that's what America loves to see. Plus, she's young, adorable, and funny. Unless Blake really steps up his game, he'll be voted out first from the top 3. :(

Amanda, Blake sang John Lennon's Imagine. It was good, but not amazing. LaKisha sang I Believe by Fantasia and it just didn't sit well with the judges. Phil sang a Garth Brooks song, can't remember which one, but the judges gave him rave reviews. I didn't really like it, he had a strange tone to his voice. I don't know what Chris sang, but he finally overcame the nasal thing and sang in his real voice. It wasn't bad, it didn't annoy me. I can't remember what Jordin sang either, but WOW! That girl is just phenomenal. She sang one of those songs that build up into a phenomenal end and she did really well with it. Oh, and Simon told Chris he was sexy. HA! Oh, and some company pledged 10 cents for every vote up until they reached $5 million!

Chris sang a song by James Taylor I think...

I think Jordin is a shoe in! My husband has been saying since week 3 that she's going to win...

I didn't get to watch last night, had to go to a baby shower, but my bf recorded it so this afternoon we will watch it. As much as I like Blake and want to see him win I don't think he will, but I bet he gets a recording contract. Does anyone else think he kinda looks like a good looking Elmer Fud?

Chris's song was by Eric Clapton. I have that song by him on my ipod.

      Diagnosed celiac for 1-2 months ago and everything makes me bloated.

      By Beverage · Posted

      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.

      Protein or fat?

      By Jsingh · Posted

      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.

      High Cost of Gluten-Free Foods

      By Chanda Richard · Posted

      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.

      Frequent nausea after gluten-free diet

      By petitojou · Posted

      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 🤍

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      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.
