    Yay!! It's a breeze once you're not banished to the library, unless u want a Dewey Decimal system chart for an avatar. Up top a choice is MyControls Once you're there u want "Edit Avatar Settings". Somewhere is a button to UploadAvatar. Then it's just *finding* the pic u want on your pc. Often I just find what I want 1st...

    Rachel! Go to the Party! (And I ditto what Carla said - don't do that, that, this & again that! ) No sweat comin' huh? try livin here. I was sweating from going to the mailbox! (107 in the shade but there aint no shade - except I suppose over those official thermometers) I'm just glad my Frico/a$$cracker mixup w/ Jin...

    Well, here's a relevant little tale. I'd been sure soy was fine for me because of 3 previous tests of 3 days, 4 days and 6 days. This time day 5 felt different enough that I knew I had to continue. It really wasn't until ~day 10 that I wrote good things in my food/symptom diary. So, just thinking you two might want to try longer. I got fooled...

    Sounds like a good plan! Was it WestSoy's RiceMilk? I think no sweetener in there.

    Can I play??? Bah! Failure! I'd have to look up some stuff now. In prev life I could hand-code html tho!! (Errrrrrr it's not straight html is it?)

    Hehe I quickly learned to re-bookmark the last page I read. W/ non-broadband navigation on phone it totally sucked when 2 pgs were added and I had to wait . . . . wait . . . .oops no didn't see that - try next page back. I re-bookmark multiple times a day now!! and if it's goin' fast'n'furious 3+ times in an hour even!!

    Sounds like a great idea. It was a bit of a fluke for me to try soy-free again. So, the stepping back from being inside the situation, seeing if what's thought of as the "known truths" can be re-justified, sure can lead to successful eliminations. I swear I had been POSITIVE soy wasn't an issue for me!!!!!!!!!!! Good time of year to up 'cado...

    Just thinking of the phrase Pudding Explosion still cracks me up, even before the visual of its aftermath. [band Chicago on Today Show reminded me of another health-related song. "Feelin' Stronger Every Day". A good one to hear during recovery on a day when progress is evident.] Ya I do remember some winters getting a slow start. Seemed...

    YES! I'm gonna switch now. It'll be me and lil bro Pete. Not sure how old.

    Aargh Another one Bites the Must. Re: Indigos (too quick on del key to leave in what I wanted to) Those are some good lyrics for a situation like that. Wish I could hear the song. My poor sidekick doesn't d/l like that. One bit kept jumping out at me. "Fasten up your earthly burdens, " Not sure why.

    Oh no ya don't. That 113 is the shade. We're putting you in the SUN!! I say 130 easy. That's where the special thermometer is needed. Mine doesn't go over 130.

    Sooooooo I guess not a lotta theme songs. I don't quite take a strict interpretation of the notion, as to me there's no limit on the # of them. But "Make my Haze blow away" will always be a worthy slogan for the vast majority of celiac.com repeat visitors. Then a few days ago, I'm listening to it while getting carried away writing offline about algernon...

    I just heard a company called Kaos makes many varieties, in a gluten-free environment. SIL, mom of my celiac niece, just got some in TX.

    Congrats on improvement!! gluten-free eating only gets easier. Maybe as much improvement on top of that if Dairy-Free, Soy-Free? Only the one way to know. I use ricemilk now. And I found a hazelnutmilk and a hempmilk, but they cost more. The bug part seems doubtful. Were his GI troubles enough motivation for him to drastically change his...

    W/ the little Frito bags, it might be the opening of bag #2 that crosses the line? That Cincinnati deal is indoubatably unique! Carla on the Gulf Coast yahoooooo! My dad used to live further south. Venice, next to Sarasota. Bev!! On a rolllllllll! Keep 'em comin'! Grrr can't remember who else I was gonna remember.

    I *do* talk up my almBtr. Sorry 'bout that!! My bad, my blame. In fact, I feel so guilty(?) about feeling so good, I'm ready to take blame for Fritos, choco-face rinne-regret, etc!!!!! Bring it on, I say!!! Had a ball w/ visitors this afternoon. My lil bro sure had himself a heckuva wife & older daughter!! But sooooooo HOT! ...

    BAM ! new avatar!! Just scanned. Niece was looking thru pile of pics at mom's and there it was. 2 others too. 1st time mom's scanner tried also. Anyway, me, 4 yrs old, in front of grandparents' much-loved cottage on Lake Michigan, on the Michigan side. Manistee county, betw Frankfort & Arcadia. Mom spent most of summers there in ...

    The bad one is an offshoot, related in name only (cuz it was written w/ java). Many bits of net-nastiness use javaScript. Javascript is a very specific little bunch of code that, while helpful in a great many ways, was co-opted by the black hats of cyberspace. It's as much java as a Happy Meal is a herd of cows. That site doesn't use javascript...

    Ack! A bagplosion!!! (wish I could put that 'long-A' line over the A in that word) Alright Donna - You say yell, I say how loud. PUT THE BAG DOWN & BACK AWAY FROM THE FRITOS MA'AM!!!!!!! "I've got a pudding-filled MagicBullet and I'm not afraid to use it!!" <stern look> But seriously, I know I was lucky to not have...

    Sounds like me at one point. If it IS celiac and u keep eating the same old way, it'll get a *lot* worse. So find out. Schedule the biopsy and bloodtest and hopefully the appt isn't too far out, as the doc will insist u don't go gluten-free before the tests. Others, feeling less need to convince the doc (and health insurance co. etc), go gluten...

    2 words. Candida overgrowth. Fits every food and symptom u mention. It creates cravings and leads to those binges. No shortage of "candida symptom checklist" entries online. Give it a look.

    1st off, I'd expect everyone to agree that the more high-end a restaurant is, the less likely cc is. When even the kitchen's lowest-on-the-totem-pole member is in love w/ the culinary profession, has yrs of training, takes great pride in creating gastronomic pleasure, and probably aspires to head chef - I'd have great confidence in zero cc. Being unable...

    Aaargh my 7-posts-in-one experiment had only limited success. Shoulda been 8 or 9. While 1st escaping those infernal pre-gluten-free times I found a theme song. The chorus ends w/ "Make my Haze blow Away!" (Black Crowes - 'My Morning Song') W/ some snarling sneering verses, choruses w/ choired background vox, two-guitar classic rock throughout...

    Oh! oh! oh! OH!! You simply MUST immed go to Open Original Shared Link and grab OpenOffice. It does everything, as far as I can tell (and I can tell pretty far), that MS-Office does, but the pricing is far more reasonable. Wait did I say REASONABLE??? Meant to say non-existant. That's right, the first 10 callers (out of...
