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

      Celiac getting dentures

      By gfmom06 · Posted

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.

      Is this celiac?

      By Beverage · Posted

      Exactly which blood tests were done? There are a few different ones and some docs don't do them all. Also, your results and reference ranges for each?

      Thankyou so much for your words.Its a hard battle when a supposed well known hospital whose celiac " specialist " has down played me because my colon looks fine and put it in my medical and so pcp doesn't take seriously. In their eyes we all carry that gene.Im having alot of bad days trying to be positive because of it.

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.
