There is a website flylady.net that gives tips on organization and anti-procrastination. The fly lady says that procrastination is due to perfectionism. I thought that sounded a little out there, but when I thought about it she was absolutely right. Alot of people tell themselves if you can't get it all done, why start at all. I know when there are jobs I just don't want to do or just seem daunting I follow her advice and set the timer for 15 minutes. If I want to continue I do, but if not I have at least started the job and give myself permission to walk away if I have completed the 15 minutes. You would be surprised how far you can get working on something at 15 minute intervals a few times a day. She says you can do anything for 15 minutes at a time and she is right. I use this concept for yard work, closet cleaning, work I bring home from my job, etc. I have to admit I was never in the dire straights that alot of her followers are, but I have found it to be good advice that has stuck with me. 15 minutes at a time actually works!

That is the story to my life...I'll do it tomorrow,tomorrow and then tomorrow!! :P I'll do it..that's just how I am, just like I am NOT a morning person. There are times I just MAKE myself do things! Gluten has nothing to do with it either..... for me anyway.....I have always put certain things off until the last minute. Still do, but trying to be beter at it!

Somebody mentioned the FlyLady. Honestly, I've been doing the FlyLady thing since about a year now and I've pretty much brought my household under control. I used to be the biggest procrastinator and slob. FlyLady turned my life around literally. I also sat in front of the computer a lot and couldn't get motivated. Give it a shot, it's an awesome community, too, just like here. They also have a forum, and a chat, where the FlyBabies (like the FlyLady followers call themselves) play exciting cleaning and de-clutter games, which hugely so motivate, I have to say. If you don't try it, it's your own fault, that you never get done anything :P

Oh, and I wouldn't say, that it's not connected to celiac. There seems to be a hightened number of ADD/ADHD sufferers in the celiac community also, because gluten messes up the brain. And most of the FlyLady stuff is being based on helping slobs, procrastinators, etc., which are mainly people with ADD/ADHD. So the FlyLady might just be able to help celiacs and gluten intolerant people. In fact, I have met about 10 celiacs or relatives of celiacs on the chat in the past already. So it might just be connected in some way. ;)

You have to go to the chat before you read anything else. The games can really draw you in. Here's the link:

Open Original Shared Link

Glad I could help. If you see a LoyalSteffi, that's me.

Oh, and you need to sign in as a guest. Everybody does. Just check the guest box and pick a name and then go in. It'll be alright. If you introduce yourself and admit that you can't get started or pro-crastinate and if somebody can explain to you what to do first, they'll fill you in. It's a "working" chat. There's always somebody there.

I already pretty much do the 15 minute trip because that's about as long as I can work standing up because of my back. Need me a little sitdown in front of the computer for a bit. :blink:

When I hear myself say "I'll do something later", I say "why not do it now?" Unless there is a GOOD reason (and "because I don't want to" is NOT a good reason), I say "well, then, I should get off my arse and do it". It's hard - it's a practice - but being aware that you ARE making the choice is (in the moment) is a good first step.

Thanks Stef & Wildwood. My son needs to do a major purge of his room before going to college in August. I'm going to tell him to do the 15 minute thing. I think he will go longer if he is still in the middle of a section. Hoping, anyway. :)

"ok, I'll clean the living room later, but I'll just pick up all the papers right now, so when I do clean it'll be easier". "Not doing the dishes yet, but I'll just empty the dishwasher so when I do have time I can just get going." and so on.

Eventually everything's pretty much done and I haven't started anything yet. :P

To Karen: They do have a great section for Kids in the FlyLady program. I'm getting their e-mails. I chose for daily delivery and every few days there is an e-mail for "The kids challenge". When I'm bored I read into them. Sometimes they have great motivators and "games" to get the room cleaned. It's pretty cool. The last thing I remember, that I read was, that the "mission" the kiddos got was to "wade" through their socks bin and give the ripped or worn socks to mom and dad to throw out (or inspect). And another one was "set timer for 15 minutes, get a bin and throw all battery operated toys that work no longer in and give it to mom". Another one was the PUPA game (pick up put away) and yet another one was "grab 5 things you don't want anymore in 10 minutes and sell or give away to another child, who wants it (with mom/dad's help). Little stuff like that does get the job done little by litte. And what they do, you don't have to do. I found it very neat. :D My son turs 4 in August and once he begins to understand I will definitely let him do that. Right now he helps me with putting away laundry, doing the dishes (I took out the knives beforehand of course), vacuum cleaning, doing the floors, cleaning the windows. Throwing out his own diapers. He is setting his own table in the morning and cleaning it off after he's done and helps me bring out the trash. He stirs up ingredients for me also, when I cook. He's very independent already and sometimes even gets a fit, if I don't let him do it. I set it up as games. Of course it takes a little longer, but it's more fun that way :P and he learns something for life. My intention is to raise him in typical FlyLady manner. Men need to help nowadays, too. So far it worked.

I even sometimes use the FlyLady ideas for my kids classes. Like FlyLady teaches them to put their toys away and setting a timer and making it into a game. I let my student race each other by putting the matts away. The winner gets a price in form of a foam jewel, that they can trade in for other goodies once the time to trade it in comes. The more foam jewels you can trade in for good behavior and doing your stuff, the bigger the "price". If you have older kids, that receive pocket money already, you can play the money game. Boy, your kids will be so clean you can eat off the floor. I'll promise ;) .

Stef- my boys are 18 & 15. I told him he can't go to college & leave his room that way. I did suggest he do the 15 minutes or 1 small section at a time. :)

I love it!! I can so see this working for me. It is very similar to what I do anyway. For me I have to make a list. Not a list of every single thing I need to do. I just play a little "what if" game with myself in order to make the list. I think, "What if someone called and said they needed to come over right away and they would be here within the hour or half hour...what would I need to pick up or clean to get the place looking halfway decent." What if there was a fire in the house next store and my neighbors needed to come into my place to call for help or to use the restroom, what would I be MOST embarrased about them seeing mess-wise. I list the biggest messes and start there. I usually find that I end up doing more than what is on my list once I get started. Fly Lady never worked for me although I think she is pushing a similar concept of starting with one thing and doing more once you get your motiviation. I just never liked that her starting activities were deep-cleaning things that may or may not need to be done in my house--like shining the sink. I don't really care about the sink shining. I would rather focus on getting it empty (no dirty dishes) and clean first and if there is time I will make it shine. Getting those dirty dishes done motivates me more to do other things than having a shiny sink with a pile of dishes still sitting next to it.

I got as far as the 'get dressed' step and decided that she was for people who don't get dressed every morning and race off to work. I need more of a Gnat Lady, someone who teaches you how to organize the least you need to do in order to still appear respectable. :P

LOL! Me too! :lol: I also have to admit I really had trouble with her insisting upon shoes in the house too. I don't allow anyone to wear shoes in my house and if I'm wearing shoes it means I'm going somewhere. If I get up and put on shoes right away my next step is out the door to go somewhere...by habit I would do this and never get anything done at home. :D Also if I'm wearing shoes everyday I'm less likely to notice how dirty my carpet and floor are. When Iwalk around barefoot everywhere I'm more likely to see/feel that the kitchen floor needs a good mopping and get it done so I don't have to feel the grittiness.

      Ocd making gluten fears unmanageable. Need advice

      By Dora77 · Posted

      Sorry for the long post. I’m 18, and I was diagnosed with celiac disease and type 1 diabetes (T1D). My transglutaminase IgA was >128 U/mL, EMA IgA positive twice, and I’m HLA-DQ2 and DQ8 positive. I’ve been completely asymptomatic since diagnosis, even when I cheated with gluten sometimes in the past and used to eat out(2-5 years ago) I don’t get the typical celiac reactions, which makes it really hard to know when (or if) I’ve been glutened. But for the past year, I’ve been the most strict with my diet, and that’s also when a bunch of new issues started. I eat completely glutenfree, never eat out, dont eat food that says „may contain gluten“.   Current Health Problems • Floating, undigested stools for over a year now. Dont think its related to celiac as it was like this since im 17 and not 13-16( i got diagnosed at 13). • Chronic back pain started gradually, worsens with movement, lots of cracking/popping sounds. Been ongoing for a year now. First noticed in the gym. • Abdominal bulge on the right side, not painful but seems to be getting slightly bigger. Doctor didn’t find a hernia on ultrasound, but it was done lying down (I’ve read those can miss hernias). Noticed it like 6 months ago, couldve been there longer. • extremely dry and mildly swollen hands (this started before I started excessive hand-washing), and bloated face. • Signs of inattentive ADHD (noticed over the past 3 years), now combined with severe OCD focused on contamination and cross-contact. • Growth/puberty seemed to started after going gluten-free. Before that I was not developing. Dont know if any of these are because of celiac as my dad doesnt have those and he is a lot less strict gluten-free then me. I also had pancreatic elastase tested four times: values were 46 (very low), 236, 158, and 306 (normal). Gastroenterologist said one normal value is enough and I don’t have EPI. Family doctor prescribed Kreon anyway (after I pushed for it), and I just started taking 1 capsule (10,000 units) with meals 2 days ago, but couldn‘t see effects yet because I’ve been constipated the last few days. Maybe because of thyroid. I don’t have Hashimoto’s. No thyroid antibodies. But I took levothyroxine for slightly low FT4 levels. My thyroid levels fluctuated between borderline low and low-normal. And recently lowered my dose so that may have caused the constipating. I probably didn’t need it in the first place, and am thinking about stopping it soon.   Current Diet Right now, I only eat a very limited set of “safe” foods I prepare myself: • Gluten-free bread with tuna or cheese • Milk and cornflakes • gluten-free cookies/snacks • Bananas (the only fruit I trust right now) I rarely eat other fruits or vegetables, because I’m scared of contamination. My dad, who also has celiac but doesn’t care about CC, buys fruits, and he might’ve picked them up right after handling gluten bread. That makes me feel unsafe eating them. Even fruit at stores or markets feels risky because so many people with gluten on their hands touch them.   My Home Situation (Shared Kitchen) We’re a family of 5. Only my dad and I have celiac. He eats glutenfree but doesn’t care about CC and sometimes (but rarely) cheats. My mom and siblings eat gluten bread at every meal. My mom is honest (so if i ask her to be cautious, she most likely would try to), but doesn’t seem to understand how serious celiac is. She: • Stopped using gluten flour • only cooks gluten-free meals (but they still heat up gluten bread and also cook gluten noodles) • Keeps separate butter/jam/jars for me • Bought me a stainless steel pan Bu we didn’t replace old wooden utensils, cutting boards, or other pans. The new they bought me pan was even carried home in a shopping bag with gluten bread in it, which triggered my OCD. It also has a rubber handle and I’m scared it might still hold onto gluten. Even if it’s washed well, it’s stored next to other pans that were used for gluten food/bread. Our kitchen table is used for eating gluten bread daily. My mom wipes it but not with soap. I’m scared tiny particles remain. If she made gluten-free bread dough on a board at the table, I’d still worry about cross contmaination contamination even with something under the dough and on the table as at one point the dough would probably touch the table. So I stopped eating anything she makes.   I know OCD is making it worse, but I can’t tell how much of my fear is real and how much is anxiety. Examples: • I wash my hands 20–30 times a day — before eating, after touching anything at home or outside, after using my phone/laptop. • I don’t let others touch my phone, and I’m scared to use my laptop because friends at school or my brother (who eat gluten) have touched it. And it annoys me a lot when others touch my stuff and feels like it got contaminated and is unsafe instantly. • I stopped eating while using my phone or laptop, afraid of invisible gluten being on them. • I wash my hands after opening food packaging (since it was on store cashier belts where gluten food is placed). • I avoid sitting anywhere except my bed or one clean chair. • I won’t shake hands with anyone or walk past people eating gluten. • At school, when switching classes, I wash my hands before getting out my laptop, again before opening it, etc. • I open door knobs with my elbows instead my hands   Job Concerns (Powder Coating, Sandblasting, Etc.) I’m working a temporary job right now that involves: • Powder coating • Sandblasting • Wet spray painting • Anodizing There’s also a laboratory. I don’t need this job, and my OCD makes me believe that dust or air particles there might contain gluten somehow. Should I quit?   Doctors Haven’t Helped My family doctor told me: “Asymptomatic celiac isn’t serious, if you have no symptoms, your intestines won’t get damaged, so you don’t need a gluten-free diet.” I knew that was wrong, but he wasn’t open to listening. I just nodded and didn‘t argue. My gastroenterologist (who’s also a dietitian) said: „If your antibodies are negative, there’s no damage. It might even be okay to try small amounts of gluten later if antibodies stay negative.“ Also said, pepper that says “may contain gluten” is fine if it only contains pepper. She was more informed than my family doctor but didn’t seem to fully understand celiac either.   Questions I Need Help With 1. Is it realistically safe to eat food my mom cooks, if we get separate pans/ and boards even if gluten is still used in the same kitchen? There will always be low risk of cc chances like that she will still touch stuff that was touched by her and my siblings after they ate gluten. And as there are gluten eaters in the house and she also prepares and eats gluten. So would opening the fridge then getting the food and touching the food be okay? So basically what i am doing, washing my hands multiple times while preparing food, she would only wash it once before, then touch anything else (for example water tap or handles) that were touched with gluteny hands, then also touch the food. I dont know if I ever could feel safe, I could try telling her how important cc really is. And I trust her so she wouldnt lie to me then be careless about cc, but idk how safe it really can be if she and everyone else keeps eating gluten and touching stuff in the house after eating. 2. Do I need to worry about touching doorknobs, fridge handles, light switches, etc. that family members touched after eating gluten? What about public places like bus handles or school desks? Or like if i went to the gym, I would be touching stuff all the time, so there will be small amounts of gluten and those would get transferred on my phone if I touch my phone while in the gym. But I want to knos if it would be enough to do damage. 3. Is an endoscopy (without biopsy) enough to tell if my intestines are healed? I’d pay privately if it could help and if i dont get a refferal. Or do i need a biopsy? 4. Could my job (powder coating, sandblasting, etc.) expose me to gluten or damage my intestines through air/dust? 5. Do I need certified gluten-free toothpaste, hand soap, shampoo, or moisturizer? (For example: Vaseline and Colgate don’t contain gluten ingredients but say they can’t guarantee it’s gluten-free.) 6. Is spices like pepper with “may contain traces of gluten” safe if no gluten ingredients are listed? Or does everything need to be labeled gluten-free?  7. Is continuing to only eat my own food the better choice, or could I eventually go back to eating what my mom cooks if she’s careful? 8. is cutlery from dishwasher safe if there are stains? Stuff like knives is used for cutting gluten bread or fork for noodles etc. I often see stains which i dont know if its gluten or something else but our dish washer doesnt seem to make it completely clean. 9. I wash my hands multiple times while preparing food. Do i need to do the same when touching my phone. Like if i touch the fridge handle, I wash my hands then touch the phone. I dont eat while using my phone but i leave it on my bed and pillow and my face could come in contact with where it was.  10. Do i need to clean my phone or laptop if theyve been used by people who eat gluten? Even if no crumbs fall onto my keybaord, i mean because of invisible gluten on their fingers. 11. Does medication/supplements have to be strictly glutenfree? One company said they couldn‘t guarantee if their probiotics don’t contain traces of gluten.  12. I had bought supplements in the past, some of them say glutenfree and some of them dont(like the brand „NOW“ from iherb). I bought them and used them when i wasnt washing my hands so often, are they still safe? As I touched and opened them after touching door knobs, water taps etc. It was like a year ago when i bought those and even though i was eating gluten-free, I never worried about what i touch etc. I know this post is long. I’m just extremely overwhelmed. I’m trying to protect myself from long-term health damage, but the OCD is destroying my quality of life, and I honestly don’t know what’s a reasonable level of caution anymore. Thanks for reading.

      beans in dessert recipes

      By lmemsm · Posted

      I've been making a lot of black bean brownies lately because it's one of the few gluten free dessert recipes that actually tastes palatable.  I've also seen chocolate cake recipes with black beans.  Someone mentioned a cookie recipe using lentils in place of flour.  Just wondering if anyone's run across any tried and true recipes using beans, lentils or peas for desserts?  I've seen a lot of recipes for garbanzo flour but I'm allergic to garbanzo beans/chickpeas.  Was wondering if adzuki or pinto beans might be useful in replacing some or all of the flour in baking.  Since gluten free flours can be crumbly was hoping the beans might help produce a better, less crumbly consistency.  Any recommendations for recipes?  Thanks.

      Gluten free/ non dairy , low calorie pudding

      By lmemsm · Posted

      I've seen a lot of recipes for chia pudding, so I decided to make some with chia, water, cocoa and honey.  Didn't like the taste, so I added ground sunflower and ground pumpkin seed to it.  It tasted okay, but came out more like frosting that pudding.  I used to make pudding with tapioca starch, milk powder, water and sugar.  It came out very good but I haven't figured out what to use to replace the milk powder to make it dairy free.  Most starches will work in place of tapioca starch but quantity varies depending on the type of starch.  If I didn't add enough starch to get a pudding consistency, I'd add gelatin as well to fix it.  Avocado and cocoa makes a good dessert with a pudding like consistency.  Unfortunately, I have a bad reaction to avocados.

      Finding gluten free ingredients

      By lmemsm · Posted

      Seems like when I find a gluten free product I like, the producer stops manufacturing it and then I have trouble finding a new gluten free source for it.  What's worse, I've been contacting companies to ask if their products are gluten free and they don't even bother to respond.  So, it's making it very hard to find safe replacements.  I was buying teff flour at nuts.com and they no longer carry it.  I noticed Naturevibe has teff and soy flour.  However, I can't get a response as to whether their flours are safe for someone with celiac.  Can't get a response from Aldi if their peas are safe for someone with celiac either.  I know Bob's Red Mill has teff flour but was hoping to get a large quantity.  I've been using up the 20 ounce Bob's Red Mill teff flour too quickly.  Does anyone know of a good source for teff or soy flour?  Any recommendations where to get gluten free beans, peas or lentils?  I found some packages of gluten free beans at Sprouts but not much variety.  I've also been looking for lentil elbow macaroni and it seems like no one is making that now that Tolerant was bought out.  Any suggestions for safe sources for these types of ingredients.  Thanks.
