  1. As in "Flying across the Pacific, flying fish appeared and disappeared"???
  2. No, I'm with Bartful -- you need to look at the newest books on their bookshelves, except most of them don't seem to have bookshelves any more (except my PCP, and she has the latest stuff
  3. I dunno, but it sure scared the bejeezes out of me. I learned from it though. The first bookkeeping class I went to I walked out of, never to return
  4. :lol: :lol: Me thinks it is also equilateral , and apart from "the square on the hypotenuse equals the sum of the square on the other two sides," that is all the geometry I have retained (or perhaps ever knew??
  5. Hello, and welcome. There are a couple of places I would recommend you start: First, Dr. Peter Green's book - Celiac Disease: A Hidden Epidemic. Secondly, the Newbie 101 thread here on this forum. After reading these you will probably have lots of related questions, so come back here and ask them
  6. Welcome back, Navigator -- we missed you Spinning Wheel - Blood, Sweat and Tears
  7. To others (no, not having them for dinner ) --- Paella and Cassoulet What we did have last night was venison stew - secret ingredients cranberries and dollop of sour cream on top.
  8. A WHOLE week of eating beans??? OMG, just think of the pharting going on in Phresno!!! I once took a big pot of baked beans on a houseboat trip - assured everyone they was pharlless beans, but that subterfuge could not last long
  9. A co-worker suggested it when I would run to the restroom half an hour after eating frozen yogurt. Long before gluten was realized as a problem, I might add.
  10. Well, there ya go. I just finished 15 minutes of trying to refigure it out myself and you already did it.
  11. Migratory flight complete

  12. The common wisdom is that we tend to crave those foods that are not good for us. If you are indeed craving gluteny carbs that is a pretty good indication that you are addicted to them and, just as an addicted smoker should quit smoking, a gluten addict should quit gluten. Once you have been off gluten for a while the craving will go away, fortunately, as...
  13. Close, very close, but in keeping with the tone of this thread, let's call them poopsicles!!!.

    ARCHIVED Is This Diagnosis Accurate

    I would respectfully point out that there are also diagnosed celiacs who have no intestinal damage, in whom the gluten has reacted upon their brains causing among other things migraines and gluten ataia, and in whom it has reacted on their skins causing dermatitis herpetiformis. Some unfortunates have all three reactions, but some only one. Since up until...
  15. Welcome to the board, WOEProGirl. I am glad to hear that some of our ramblings have been useful to you. Wishing you continued good health. And by the way, somewhere down the line you may once again be able to eat dairy
  16. The only things I think of falling from a plane (besides wings of course, which I always used to keep my eye on in my early flying days ) are those blue froz en things that wouldn't last long in a ho' tub though, at least not in their frozen form, and wouldn't look much llike crutch tips when they melted
  17. Low willpower and an unsupportive family is not a good combination for success right off the bat. You can't do much about your family, but you can do something about your willpower. I liken it to giving up smoking. I found that so long as I kept saying I was going to try and give up smoking -- I failed. I succeeded only when I awoke one morning and said...
  18. Don't forget, my spouse just gambled away our retirement nest egg -- I have to watch my pennies.
  19. Yeah, I know, nutty as a fruitcake. I wasn't even in San Francisco (but thought I was).
  20. Can we forget about that "coma" word for a while ?? It's a place where strange things happen, where the mind goes nutz and creates its own stimulation (I wonder if that's why we dream?? - can't stand the boredom!) It's a place where spouses leave you to take up with your financial advisor, with you looking on; a place where spouse gambles away your retirement...
  21. There There is a big element of that in it, Tom, but there is also a big difference in the healing rates among various individuals, how severe the damage has been, etc. ec.
  22. We lectin gals are mighty similar
  23. Just what kind of shrooms have you been consuming, seeing stars an' all?
  24. Interesting that. I cannot eat quinoa, beets or more than a smidgen of spinach, but chard is my favorite healthy vegetable.
  25. I was in the air at the time of which we are speaking. You know I wouldn't use forbidden electronics during flight, surely??? Moi?? It is as cold here right now as it was in Nevada No summer attire yet. Clay finally got computers running on Airport Express wifi (slow as molasses, as if the board wasn't slow enough now) until the hoped-for...
