Amen to that!!

 

I've had several people ask me about gluten free to lose weight because of the "Wheat Belly" book or a DR told them to go by this book!!! "This sounds like what you do"  UGH!!!!! I told them all okay, sure, I'll help you, I went gluten free and gained 40 pounds! I'm gluten free! Allergy free! Sorry, Its a thorn in my side.

 

On another calm note :) I'm having a simple baked potato and some chicken broth. Not feeling so good lately. I make black beans with jalapeno pepper, green onions, fresh garlic, and cumin. I do okay eating this with rice. Two days ago I added some gluten-free corn chips!! Not a good idea....I keep thinking I can slip corn in there.

 

 

Feel better soon :)

Tonight we're going out to an event and we're taking anti-pasto (tomatoes, mushrooms, eggplant, zucchini, capsicum, olives) and rice crackers, but we're having a big lunch at my brother's today because it's not overly filling.  It will be a fun night though.

Last night:

 

Carnitas Burrito Bar

Refried White and Kidney Beans

Salad

 

Strawberry Cake for dessert.

 

We (the hubby part of we) has successfully delayed breaking concrete to replumb our kitchen for a short time....

 

I ought to be more careful what I wish for....was researching how to utilize our laundry room grey water for my new veggie garden -- lol -- I was thinking perhaps we'd have it set up by Fall to grow winter veggies....once we build the raised beds etc.  To buy time our kitchen sink is currently flowing to our back yard and is presently watering my tomatoes, corn, beans and squash plants....sure hope they are ok with it for a week or two -- hubs is having his subs come by this week to provide estimates -- glad to have a few more days to slowly move out of the storeroom downstairs.

 

Will be glad to have laundry and dishwasher back as soon as possible....but quite happy to not be breaking concrete this weekend -- off to kayak for the second morning in a row with my best bud that has returned home after cruising on their sailboat for nearly two years....lol hanging at the yacht club in the morning only to return to my poor old house -- maybe I'll just stay aboard her boat until the plumbing is magically completed.

 

Have a wonderful Sunday everyone :)

So while the laundry water to veggie garden idea still remains viable -- sending carnitas flavored water to the back - back yard was not such a good one -- the dog has dug up my tomato plants and the cat was playing in my "three sister" sprouts -- Doh!

 

Plumbing remains on hold -- looks like estimated start of project will be last week of the month...so long first attempt at veggie garden :(

oooh, yeah, that possibly food-flavored recycled water is a "non-rog" when doggies are around

 

Sorry, kiddo. :(

how do you make your lentil patties? Do you have a specific recipe or ( like me lol) do you  just throw them together ?

 

I just throw them together but they basically have lentils, grated carrot, grated zucchini, chopped onion, oil and flour.  Last night I chopped up some baby squash with it as well.

GottaSki Mentor

sons saved my tomato plants :)

 

they now have baby gates surrounding them....oops...guess this should be in the garden thread -- oh well -- pretend.

 

Meatloaf

Parsnips

Broccolini 

 

Popcorn and Ice Cream at the fancy movie theater for dessert -- son gets us in for free -- i pay for snacks at his discounted rate :D

Son fine tuning his crock pot chili today -- so I think I'll whip up some cornbread muffins to go with that this evening.

 

Just saw this photo and found it kinda interesting - mostly because one of my fifth digits is shorter -- Braly's Sign was first described in 1953 by an English Gastroenterologist, Dr James Braly. The majority of Celiac patients have a short 5th finger and this is Braly's Sign. (J Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition 2000; volume 31 (Suppl.3):S29. NEJM, August 18, 1999)

Making chicken noodle soup for lunch. Focaccia is rising.

Tonight will be fresh pasta with shrimp in a creamy sauce with homemade pistachio sage pesto. Focaccia and dipping oil.

Someone on here sent me that article a while ago and my hands look like that too, but no one else I know has a shorter baby finger..  (but I have tiny toes too. the second one it small, unlike other people whose second toe is longer) I just thought I was weird.

Oh, that sounds like heaven in the mouth!!

 

We're having Greek salad in a wrap

(because I have so much chicken and feta cheese and grilled veggies to use up)

with a side of fresh corn

(and because it is a bazillion degrees outside and I ain't cooking!) :D

 

Going out to do some pool exercises and get all hot and stuff. .

Yes, everyone's pinkies are shorter than the other fingers,  but if you look at the picture, see how they come up halfway of the middle segment.?

I guess most people's (the ones I have examined anyway--lol)  come up to the first segment.

 

Now, I am probably going to start staring at people's fingers and getting asked "what the hell are YOU looking at?"  :lol:

I'm making chicken tacos with some of the gluten-free taco sauce I picked up at Sprouts Farmers Market Saturday.  I've only had my Celiac diagnosis for a week, so I'm still working out the gluten-free cooking and such.  I love cooking, though, so I don't think it will be too hard.  I've got some gluten-free brown rice tortillas, and I'll try the taco meat in a burrito style.

 

I think I'll be coming here frequently to get some gluten-free recipe ideas.

Adalaide Mentor

I think tonight I am baking some sort of chicken something or other. Maybe some garlic taters to go with it or some such. And I'm sure I can dig up a real vegetable somewhere. With this damned iron pills eating has become an exercise in forcing food into myself. I'd honestly be just as happy starving right now. <_<

Hi debrabenge

Welcome to the site :)

There is usually something tasty going on here. We look forward to seeing your new ideas too, I am sure you will soon be in the swing of it

Just had salmon, shiitake mushrooms, ginger, garlic, cilantro, rice noodles. Mmm

Mr M is now researching finger length. I have fingers like the ones in the pictures, and tiny toes too.

Welcome, Debra! Several of us adore cooking. It really helps to be an intuitive cook with a celiac diagnosis! We look forward to your input here.

      @Manaan2, I was on Miralax for several months after I crushed three vertebrae and fractured my hip.  The compression fractures of my vertebrae affected the Vagus nerve that stimulates digestion and intestinal movement, peristalsis. Miralax just didn't relieve the constipation I was experiencing at all.  Nothing budged.  I tried Milk of Magnesia (magnesium oxide) which pulls water into the digestive tract, and found that rather harsh and dehydrating.   Bad idea. I was already taking thiamine in various forms, Benfotiamine, TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl  disulfude), Lipothiamine and Allithiamine.  Click on my name, then Activities in the pull down menu to get to my blog to learn more about my journey with thiamine.   Since we need more thiamine when we are physically ill and emotionally stressed, I decided to focus on TTFD,  Benfotiamine, and magnesium l-threonate.  Within a week of increasing my doses a bit, my constipation was gone.  It took several more months to heal the compressed nerve damage.  For pain, I take a combination of TTFD, Pyridoxine B 6, and  Cobalamine B12 which together have an analgesic effect.  I can't function with pharmaceutical pain killers, besides they cause constipation.   Mechanisms of action of vitamin B1 (thiamine), B6 (pyridoxine), and B12 (cobalamin) in pain: a narrative review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35156556/ Yes, I did just stop the Miralax, but I wasn't on it as long as your daughter.  Yes, there's a difference between adults and children.  Yes, my circumstances were different than your daughter's, but thiamine deficiency does affect the nerves and the brain.  A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine causes an eighty percent increase in brain function (which activates the Vagus nerve and controls digestion).   I recommend you visit Dr. Chandler Marrs' website, hormonesmatter.com.  Dr. Marrs worked with Dr. Derrick Longsdale, a pioneer in thiamine research, specifically with children and autism spectrum disorders.  She has been very helpful to me when I reached out to her.  She would be better able to guide you about your daughter's care. https://hormonesmatter.com/sibo-ibs-constipation-thiamine-deficiency/#google_vignette Do stay in touch, please.  You can start another thread or personal message me any time.  My heart goes out to you, your husband, and especially your daughter.   Namaste

      @knitty kitty  The information you've provided is invaluable!  I have a lot more homework to do before we make the official switch but you have significantly increased my hope that we can get her off Miralax (she started at 3 years old and is almost 8!).  This weekend my husband and I plan to solidify all the details for a start point, then adjust as we go along.  I realize that everyone's body is different, then there's also the fact that she's a child but just out of curiosity if you don't mind sharing and if you'd rather not, no problem at all-how long did you take Miralax before switching and when you switched, did you just completely stop the Miralax or was there a period where you did Miralax and the supplements?  I plan to research that piece this weekend but just curious what you did.  
    • BIg Nodge
      Scott, thanks so much for the thoughtful replies. My doctor did actually just re-order thyroid labs to see what is going on with my TPOs. I agree that will be interesting information.  I think I know the answer to this, but as far as the biopsy . . .. that would be quite conclusive as far as celiac goes, but a negative result would not rule out NCGS, correct? Does NCGS also cause damage to the lower intestine/leaky gut?  I appreciate the thought that I should be open-minded to other causes. I did not have dysautonomia on my radar, so I will look into that. From a quick scan at the potential symptoms it seems like almost anyone could convince themselves they have it, very broad! I can see why that is a tricky one to diagnose. I did also show low vitamin D, I'm in New England so that is somewhat common. I have a memory of low iron on some lab result as well but I can't find it, so I'll look into that. My cholesterol is high too, so working on that.  While the initial adjustment was tough, I have actually adapted fairly well to going gluten-free at home. The tough part for me is I love eating out and traveling, so that has been a challenge. I suppose if the answer ends up being NCGS then I could maintain a mostly gluten-free diet but also experiment with the occasional splurges. Snowboarding just doesn't feel right without a beer in the lodge . . ... cider is just not the same!  Thanks again.

      I did some research and found out that vaccines put preservatives, sugar alcohols and metals in them. Which I have a intolerance too.  I was supposed to do testing to find out metal's I was allergic to because I can't  wear jewelry of any kind. Mayo felt I had other allergies also.
    • Scott Adams
      For individuals who have experienced negative reactions to the flu vaccine, there are alternative formulations that may reduce the risk of allergic responses. Traditional flu vaccines are typically produced using egg-based methods, which can pose issues for those with egg allergies. However, there are now several egg-free options available, such as cell-based and recombinant flu vaccines. Recombinant Vaccines (e.g., Flublok Quadrivalent): These are produced without the use of eggs and are grown in insect cells, making them a suitable option for individuals with egg allergies. Cell-Based Vaccines (e.g., Flucelvax Quadrivalent): These vaccines are also egg-free and are produced using mammalian cell cultures, which can be a safer alternative for those with egg allergies. Other Considerations: If you have had a reaction to a specific component of the flu vaccine (e.g., gelatin, preservatives, or antibiotics), discussing your medical history with a healthcare provider is crucial. They can help identify vaccines that exclude these ingredients. It's important to consult with an allergist or healthcare provider to determine the safest option based on your specific allergies and medical history. They can also provide guidance on pre-vaccination testing or desensitization protocols if necessary. Also, at @trents mentioned, could you be getting hidden gluten in your diet? Do you eat in restaurants? If so, this could be why you still have high gluten antibodies.
