OMGOSH, THEY'RE TRYING TO KILL ME!!!! :lol:

It's 6:35 Pacific Time, and the new specials (should there be any) are NOT posted yet. :lol: Egads...I woke up at 2:15 a.m. and immediately started thinking about the stupid NEW specials. :lol::ph34r: If I didn't have to fire up the ole computer and wait for a dial-up connection, I might have gotten out of bed at that very moment!!!! :P

Kassandra,

I haven't gotten around to some of the other products yet, but I think I might try the wipes and at least one of the cleansing bars.

Joni,

Nope, you're a member for life now! :P

Awww man. I just got up and the new special isn't up yet. I dreamed about makeup brushes last night. That I got a whole set for free. This has escalated to unhealthy levels..... :unsure:

Thanks :D !!!

What gives??? It's now 9:41 am EST and still NO SPECIAL CHANGE!

I have my GI appt. at noon and I just know I'm going to be the last to find out about the new specials! :(

Kassandra, I tried their moisturizer. It works great, smells ok (not great), and is a tiny jar for $4.00. I only use it around my eyes because of the cost.

I ordered some makeup from Pure Luxe cosmetics

Open Original Shared Link

What's Pure Luxe like - no wait . . . never mind - I cannot try something new!!

You can let us know how it is, Joni, but you cannot leave us - you can never leave "the cult" :ph34r: !

Yay for Pick Me Up Pink!

It's great, isn't it? Today I needed to put make-up on for volunteering at my son's class. But I didn't want to overdo it since I'm going to wash it right off before my dermatologist appointment. So I put on PMUP and then the Natural Reflections Cool Pink finishing dust - a little Apple on my cheeks and, dare I say, GREEN eye shadow!!! This is the first time I had a color other than browns or mauves since the 80's when the only color I had on my eyes was BLUE - blue eyeshadow, blue pencil and even blue mascara (remember that?) :o !! I have to say, I'm not very comfortable with this - I'm really going out of my comfort zone right now. But isn't this all about us leaving behind what we were comfortable with and trying something new :) ?

How was your "experimenting"?

Hi Susie! I was wondering if we scared you away :P

Maybe I can start a new cult?

We can have competing cults. How fun. LOL

Actually...(oh man ^_^ ) that Pure Luxe stuff looks good! Plus, their colors have fun names, such as porno queen and nymphomania B) LOL . I will try to resist ordering their blushes and lip colors while excitedly awaiting your reviews, Susie :D

Okay you guys, EM is officially trying to torture us :huh::o I have to sit in front of this dang computer for seven more hours, which means I will be constantly checking for the new special. :ph34r: I do hope I'm wrong but I have a feeling it's not going up today <_<

TORTURE!

Oh ladies, I am so sorry about the special :(

I was up really late last night and I kept checking :lol:

I guess we just assumed there would be a new one posted once the other one had expired.

I wonder if it has to do with clearing out the overstock of tinsel time and gingerbread man, and who knows how much of it they have left? Hmmm, dare I say this could go on until they get rid of it?

Plus, their colors have fun names, such as porno queen and nymphomania B) LOL . I will try to resist ordering their blushes and lip colors while excitedly awaiting your reviews, Susie :D

:o

Ok, I kinda am partial to the nice sweet names of the EM, Day Dream, Tea Time, Fresh Air, has a nicer ring to it!

But if I empty my cart and there really IS a new special, I will have to choose all my eyeshadow colors again. I don't think I can go through that again - it was worse than childbirth!!! Too many good choices! :lol:

I bet we did. Now they have a new marketing plan in place..to make us pay full price and not get freebies. I hope we don't have to wait another month for a new special!

Alright that's it. :angry: We're all joining Susies future cult and switching to Pure Luxe. :P

But wait....that would mean I won't ever get to try the 12 eyeshadows and 6 blushes that are sitting in my cart :lol:. Okay, I guess I'll try to be patient for at least a few more days :rolleyes:

I was just thinking...I've received SOO much free stuff that I may actually just place my order anyway, lol. It's not like I can't place another one if they put up a really good one. :lol: I'll think on this overnight--I may come to my senses while sleeping. :P

      Diagnosed w Celiacs, but reacting to gluten-free Digiorno Pizza AND Kraft Zesty Italian Dressing

      By trents · Posted

      As I suspected, xanthan gum is one of the ingredients. It is a polysaccharide used as a texturing agent in many gluten-free products. It's hard to digest and causes distress for many celiacs. I can't say for sure if that was the problem but you might be on the lookout for it in the future. Muscle spasms can be caused by magnesium deficiency. Are you taking any vitamin and mineral supplements? I mean some things more potent than a multivitamin?

      Hello @Suze046 In the western world 40 to 60 percent are low or deficient in Vitamin D.  Malabsorption from Celiac Disease, avoidance of UV from the sun and seasonal variations can result in low vitamin D.  A simple 25(OH)D test will tell you your status.  Low vitamin D affects immune system, bone health, mental health.  I keep mine around 80 ng/ml (200 nmol/L). Choline has many functions in our body.  From the neurotransmitter Acetylcholine to fat digestion.  It is made by our bodies but in insufficient amount.  The major dietary source is from beef and eggs.  The RDA is 500 mg a day.  That would be equivelant to 3 eggs or 10 cups of cooked brocolli a day.  Choline is a significant portion of biliary phospholipids and is a crucial element for bile function.n.  I found taking Phosphatidly Choline capsules helps.  A homocysteine test can be indicative of choline deficiency.  Could we be overlooking a potential choline crisis in the United Kingdom?

      Diagnosed w Celiacs, but reacting to gluten-free Digiorno Pizza AND Kraft Zesty Italian Dressing

      By annamarie6655 · Posted

      @trents thank you so much for your response!  When i was diagnosed, I was exhibiting mainly joint pain, hair loss, bloating, and allodynia (painful feeling from non painful stimuli). The muscle spasms only started after diagnosis, and it seems to only happen when I am severely glutened. It’s only happened twice, but it definitely makes me nervous when it happens.    In regard to the pizza, thats what i saw after i got sick from it. I’m still trying to figure out how to switch to ALL certified gluten-free goods.    for the dressing, here is the ingredient list:  WATER, VEGETABLE OIL, VINEGAR, SUGAR, GARLIC, SALT, RED BELL PEPPER, ONION, CONCENTRATED LEMON JUICE, XANTHAN GUM, POTASSIUM SORBATE, HERBS, CALCIUM DISODIUM EDTA, MONOACETIN, SPICES. and the link: https://www.kraftheinz.com/en-CA/kraft/products/00068100903577-zesty-italian-salad-dressing

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @annamarie6655! Are the muscle spasms and joint aches a new pattern of reaction to gluten or have you experienced these in the past? Concerning DeGiorno's "gluten-free" pizza, we have had many reports from celiac.com members of gluten reactions from consuming this product. I believe it is one of those "gluten-free" products that is made from wheat (speaking of the crust component) that has been processed in such a way as to remove most of the gluten. The FDA regs allow food companies to use the claim "gluten-free" as long as the product contains no more than 20ppm of gluten. This works for most celiacs but not for those on the more sensitive end of the spectrum. There is another industry standard known as "Certified Gluten-Free" that is stricter, requiring no more than 10ppm of gluten. Certified Gluten-Free products use the "GFCO" logo. Concerning the salad dressing, could you list the ingredients in another post or link it? There are certain other ingredients besides gluten commonly used in gluten-free manufactured food items to give them acceptable textures that give a lot of celiacs problems.

      By annamarie6655 · Posted

      Hello, so I was diagnosed with Celiacs about 8 months ago. After being diagnosed, I have been trying very hard to maintain a completely gluten-free (and celiac safe) diet.  Two of the main times I had a huge reaction, it was from: - gluten-free Digiorno Pizza w Pepperoni - Kraft Zesty Italian Dressing (this was in canada if that changes anything) Both are marked as gluten-free. Following eating these items, I had a severe bout of diarrhea, uncontrollable and heavy muscle spasms throughout my whole body, and aching throughout every joint.   If these are both gluten-free, why would I be reacting to them? Should I be worried about a separate allergy?  In regards to the muscle spasms, should I follow up with someone about that?
