I love this show! I am taping it b/c my 2 yr old little girl LOVES to watch it with me. So we'll watch it tomorrow together - she dances along. It's too cute :)

I watched the intro just to see who was on this season - looks like it should be good!

Has it already started? When's it on? I'll watch if I can convince Don to watch with me.

It started tonight - was on from 8-10 EST...Is it abc?

I am rooting for Heather Mills, I am glad she did so well.

I love this show!

Watched last season, and got completely hooked.

I was looking forward to Billy Ray Cyrus--poor guy, he was so stiff last night. Won't be surprised if he's the first to go.

We have a UK version here called 'Strictly come dancing' and I absolutely loved it!!!!!!!

Some of the best contestants (stars) have been big burley sportsmen, and I'm alway's amazed when it turns out they have a real talent to dance gracefully!! :D

Heather Mills is constantly being slated in the press here and is not very popular at all :o

I love it! I have watched it for all four seasons. It's hard to tell who is going to be good this early, the dancers can really surprise you at times, and so can the voting. Hopefully they have finally gotten the voting figured out. The first season was a complete fake, John O'Hurley should have won, but because of the voting for that season if he got less viewer votes and the top judges votes he and the other girl would have tied. I think now they have it right, since they have gone to a second day for elimination.

Nikki: Despite Heather being on "Dancing" our press here over the past few years haven't been portraying her as "mentally well". I recall years before her leaving Sir Paul that the NY Post reporting that she has problems telling the truth (putting it mildly). Something about her story about being homeless was a fabrication. As to her performance dance, it can't imagine that she'll have any problems because with her money she can afford the best prothesis leg money can buy. The question is would the average John or Jane with a prothesis leg be able to get around as well as she can in their daily average lives? I understand she did well with the dance she chose.

I actually know a man who lost his leg about 10 years ago, and he does not get around that well. He has told me he can ice skate a bit, and now he is trying to roller blade so he can do it with his children. I can tell you he does have a hard time and I have seen his fall off when he was walking. He can step on my toes and not know it because he cannot feel anything underneath his feet, except that he is "slanted"

Is everyone still enjoying Dancing with the Stars? I only got to see the end last night I was working overtime. I did see Heather dance and she is who I am rooting for.

I'm still watching :)

I think Heather is doing a great job--I also like Apollo, Ian and Joey.

I had hoped Billy Ray would be doing better by now :( The judges last night gave him credit for trying, but you can tell dancing is not his strong suit :P

Thanks! :D

He's strictly an indoor cat--I was taking a few pictures of my flowers and Mark brought Allo out and set him in the garden. I was able to get two shots of him before he ran back in the house. :lol:

Back to DWTS.....

I don't agree with Shandi being ousted last night :angry: There were one or two others that didn't dance 1/2 as good. I guess she dosen't have enough call-in fans ;)

confused Community Regular

I am wathcing it this season, I love apollo and ian and billy ray. But to be honest i really dont want ian to win, cause of his dance partner, she does not deserve to win 3 times in a row. She already has a big head from the last 2 wins lol.

Am I the only one still watching :unsure:

I loved the group dance last night--it was so cute! Looking forward to the results show tonight.

I think Apolo and Julianne are the frontrunners right now--I like Ian, but the judges apparently don't share that opinion :P Still loving Joey.....

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

John and I are still watching, still rooting on Heather, we also like Apollo. We are not fans of Joey fatone....I dont think he should be in the competition, he was a dancer when he sang in Nsync.

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

Heather went home...... :(

confused Community Regular

im hoping apollo wins, if not him then billy ray, then if not him then leila

paula

      Did the GI doc give you any rational for stopping the Tylenol during the gluten challenge? I have never heard of this before and I can't imagine a good reason for it. Ibuprofen, maybe, because it is an anti inflammatory but acetaminophen?  I don't see that it would have any impact on the test results to take Tylenol.

      Good day! New members here and I have a question about medication. My gastroenterologist made me stop some medication during the gluten challenge beforenthe screening test but I have a little surgery tomorrow and I need to know if I can use tylenol for half a day or if it will give me false results using it.   Thanks

      I agree, there can be contamination at many points--milling is another possible source of contamination for any flours.

      Keep in mind that with manufactured food products, "gluten free" doesn't equate to no gluten. Things that are naturally gluten free can be cross-contaminated with gluten in the field, in shipping and in processing. In the U.S. companies can use the gluten free label as long as the product doesn't exceed 20ppm of gluten. That amount still may cause a reaction in some people.

      Dd10 was tested for celiac four years ago bc two siblings were dx’d (positive labs and biopsies). Her results at the time were positive ema  and ttg (7x the UL), but a negative biopsy. We checked again three months later and her ttg was still positive (4x the UL), but ema and biopsy were negative. Doc said it was “potential celiac” and to keep eating gluten, but we were concerned about harming her growth and development while young and had her go gluten-free because we felt the labs and ema in particular were very suggestive of early celiac, despite the negative biopsies. She also had stomach aches and lethargy when eating it. We just felt it’d be better to be safe than sorry. Now, four years later, she doesn’t want to be gluten-free if she doesn’t “have to be,” so underwent a 12 week gluten challenge. She had labs done before starting and all looked great (celiac panel all negative, as expected.) Surprisingly, she experienced no noticeable symptoms when she began eating gluten again, which we felt was a positive sign. However, 12 weeks in, her labs are positive again (ttg 4x the UL and ema positive again as well). Doc says that since she feels fine and her previous two biopsies showed nothing, she can just keep eating gluten and we could maybe biopsy again in two years. I was looking up the ema test and the probability of having not just one but two false positives, and it seems ridiculously low.  Any advice? Would you biopsy again? She’s old enough at this point that I really feel I need her buy-in to keep her gluten-free, and she feels that if the doc says it’s fine, then that’s the final word — which makes me inclined to biopsy again and hope that it actually shows damage this time (not because I want her to have celiac like her sisters, but because I kind of think she already does have it, and seeing the damage now would save her more severe damage in the long run that would come from just continuing to eat gluten for a few more years before testing again.)  Our doc is great - we really like him. But we are very confused and want to protect her. One of her older sibs stopped growing and has lots of teeth problems and all that jazz from not catching the celiac disease sooner, and we don’t want to get to that point with the younger sis. fwiw- she doesn’t mind the biopsy at all. It’s at a children’s hospital and she thinks it’s kind of fun. So it’s not like that would stress her out or anything.
