This is also the first year we are watching this show. Does anyone else watch it? It seems fun.

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

      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

      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.

      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.
