New Year's Resolutions...

I've never been one for resolutions, I've never found them to work really well-but I guess resolving to lose 50# by February is just setting one up for disaster :rolleyes:

This year, however, I've come to the realization that I'm really not happy with who I am right now and there are a few things I need to fix, for myself, not for anyone else. BUT, instead of 1 life changing resolution that I can't live up to, I'm going to make a small resolution at the beginning of each month to focus on-small changes to hopefully equal a big overall change. I want to be the happy person I used to be and become a calmer, more easygoing person I've had difficulty with my entire life. I want to appreciate me for me and finally accept who I am-and I know that part of that is to be a healthier, more life-aware person.

So, for January my resolution will be:

1. Add 1 more veggie a day

2. Remember to take my mood vitamins- vit. D, calcium and magnesium

Rachelle, I really like your idea. I wish you all the luck in achieving your goal for 2009! :)

My New Years resolution is to accept more invitations and to have more fun.

When I got sick I withdrew from everything....mainly because I was just too sick to enjoy myself. I'm doing much better now but its still hard for me to throw caution to the wind and get out there and do things the way I would have prior to my illness.

For 2009 I want to make more effort to say YES when people invite me to go out. Its time to start having more fun. :)

Great idea, Rachelle. I never make resolutions either because I can never carry them through for the whole year. I like the idea of a monthly one. Hmm,

My January resolution will be to figure out how to balance family and work better. I work from home.

I still have 2 1/2 hours and I've just come up with another resolution. :)

I need to remind myself that its not in my best interest to be open about my experiences in the presence of close minded people. I need to remember that some people have alot of negative energy that they need to release and thats ok....some people hold onto things while others prefer to move on. I'm someone who doesnt like negative energy so my resolution is to ignore those types of people and to just say a silent prayer for them instead of getting dragged down by the negativity.

I think this resolution kind of goes with my previous resolution....which was to have more FUN! :D

      Chances of being coeliac

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Welcome @JoJo0611. That is a valid question.  Unfortunately the short answer is slim to none.  Be proactive, when the diagnosis process is completed, start GFD.  Remember also that the western diet is deficient in many nutrients that governments require fortification.  Read the side of a breakfast cereal box. Anti-tTG antibodies has superseded older serological tests It has a strong sensitivity (99%) and specificity (>90%) for identifying celiac disease. A list of symptoms linked to Celiac is below.  No one seems to be tracking it, but I suspect that those with elevated ttg, but not diagnosed with Celiac Disease, are diagnosed with celiac disease many years later or just die, misdiagnosed.  Wheat has a very significant role in our economy and society.  And it is addictive.  Anti-tTG antibodies can be elevated without gluten intake in cases of other autoimmune diseases, certain infections, and inflammatory conditions like inflammatory bowel disease. Transient increases have been observed during infections such as Epstein-Barr virus.Some autoimmune disorders including hepatitis and biliary cirrhosis, gall bladder disease. Then, at 65 they are told you have Ciliac Disease. Milk protein has been connected to elevated levels.   Except for Ireland and New Zealand where almost all dairy cows are grass fed, commercial diaries feed cows TMR Total Mixed Rations which include hay, silage, grains and concentrate, protein supplements, vitamins and minerals, byproducts and feed additives. Up to 80% of their diet is food that cannot be eaten by humans. Byproducts of cotton seeds, citrus pulp, brewer’s grains (wheat and barley, rye, malt, candy waste, bakery waste. The wheat, barley and rye become molecules in the milk protein and can trigger tTg Iga in persons suseptible to Celiac. I can drink Grass fed milk, it tastes better, like the milk the milkman delivered in the 50's.  If I drink commercial or Organic milk at bedtime I wake with indigestion.

      Dedicated gluten-free Restaurants in East Bay (near San Francisco):

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      I strongly recommend 2 dedicated gluten free (gluten-free) restaurants in my area (East Bay of San Francisco Bay Area) (2025) -- Life is Sweet Bakery and Café in Danville. I've been a few times with friends and tried multiple entrees and salads. All very good and worth having again. I've also tried a number of their bakery goods. All extremely good (not just "good for gluten-free"). https://lifeissweetbakeryandcafe.com/ -- Kitara Kitchen in Albany (they have additional locations). I've been once and had the "Buritto Bowl". Six individual items plus a sauce. Outstanding. Not just "for gluten-free", but outstanding in its own right. Vibrant flavors, great textures. I can't wait to go back. https://www.kitava.com/location/kitava-albany/

      I'm 67 and have been celiac for 17yrs. I had cataract surgery and they put a gluten lens in my eye. Through a lot of research, I found out about MMA acrylic...it contains gluten. It took 6 months for me to find a DR that would remove it and replace it with a gluten-free lens . I have lost some vision in that eye because of it . I also go to a prosthodontist instead of a regular dentist because they are specialized. He has made me a night guard and a few retainers with no issues... where my regular dentist didn't care. I have really bad reactions to gluten and I'm extremely sensitive, even to CC. I have done so much research on gluten-free issues because of these Drs that just don't care. Gluten is in almost everything shampoo, lotion, food, spices, acrylic, medication even communion wafers! All of my Drs know and believe me I remind them often.... welcome to my world!

      If this applies geographically, in the U.K., physicians will often declare a diagnosis of celiac disease based on the TTG-IGA antibody blood test alone if the score is 10x normal or greater, which your score is. There is very little chance the endoscopy/biopsy will contradict the antibody blood test.
