ARCHIVED Hello Everyone, I'm New Here...
stef-the-kicking-cuty replied to a topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Yeah, Kaiti and Jessica are right. There is no remission. Couple of years ago doctors thought so, because they didn't know much about celiac. But they also thought all celiacs are skinny and must have diarrhea, which also isn't true. Now they know, that there can't be a remission with celiac. The symptoms can just disappear for some years starting with adolescence... -
ARCHIVED Think I May Be In The Same Boat
stef-the-kicking-cuty replied to zoommedix's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
You sound celiac to me also. Definately get tested and as celiac3270 said. Don't let your doctor talk you out of it. Stay stubborn. Some docs tend to try to talk you out of it. We heard that a lot in here. I wish you good luck and welcome on the message board. Hugs, Stef -
Yeah, Ianm is right. You "poisoned" your body all these years, you can't expect that it's better in two weeks. Hugs, Stef

Haha, it is Stef -
Hello Deb, I'm very sorry for your loss. But I thought this might be evidence, that some people in your family might be celiac, too. Without knowing it. Since there are so many cancer cases. Hugs, Stef

Hello Maggie, if you started in December with your glutenfree diet and your like I was, then around now it should be much better. It took me like three month, too. I started with the glutenfree diet end of July and around September/October I already felt much better and in December I haven't had any heart problems at all any more. Hugs, Stef

ARCHIVED Cigarette Smoke?
stef-the-kicking-cuty replied to minibabe's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Hi Deb, I can so relate. I hate smoke. My husband stopped smoking for me. And when I was a little kid I always had problems with smelling some parfumes, too. I remember my mother always put one on and I felt gaggy afterwards. Somebody once told me, that cigarettes can be parfumed and it's the same reaction as to the actual parfume. I don't know. Either... -

stef-the-kicking-cuty replied to celiac3270's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Thanks for telling us, that it's updated. They had just updated it before last chistmas somewhen and I printed it out. And I thought, they update it once a year or so. I wouldn't have looked again. So thanks, I already printed the new one out. Hugs, Stef -
ARCHIVED Question For Any Really Underweight Celiac's?
stef-the-kicking-cuty replied to ronapa's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
When I was younger (child) I never paid much attention to my weight. With 17 I competed for the first time in the 50 kg (110 lbs) class and those days I had 49.5 kg (109 lbs). My height is 5'3". With every year that passed I gained!!! weight, despite working out like a nutball. And soon I had slight problems to hold the 50 kg weigth. After three years or... -
ARCHIVED I'm Expecting!
stef-the-kicking-cuty replied to Twister2's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Yeah, don't know where they are going is really bad. I sometimes sit here thinking: "...don't let it be Irak...don't let it be Irak...". I didn't know how many women in here were pregnant. Wow! I hope, when I'm pregnant, there will be some other "fellow-celiacs" pregnant in here, too. So we also can compare. But well... Congratulations to you all and... -
ARCHIVED Another Question...embarrasing Bm Question
stef-the-kicking-cuty replied to kellyk's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Phew! I'm really relieved to hear that. And I already thought, something's wrong with me . Well, something IS wrong with me, since I still have pain sometimes, but I haven't figured out what it is yet. But now it's not the stool problem anymore. Hugs, Stef -
ARCHIVED Toronto's National Post Article
stef-the-kicking-cuty replied to Thomas's topic in Publications & Publicity
I like the fact that they mentioned that also thick people can have celiac, not only thin people. Some things are said a little stupid, but to be honest. This is the best-written celiac article (from a layman probably) I ever saw so far. We're getting more publicity. Woohoo Hugs, Stef -
ARCHIVED Dumplings
stef-the-kicking-cuty replied to Donna F's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Oh, for the bread in the center, is the bread cubed before cooking in the oven to crisp it? Do you put chives or anything on them before crisping it in oven? Thanks for your recipes. It really sounds yummy, I have to try it. So it's called a potatoe ricer. You learn something everyday...lol. But with the mashed potatoes. I just wanted to say, it... -
Hey Maggie, I know the being short of breath and balance problem real good. I had that in my "end-stadium" so to speak, before I got my diagnosis. Since going glutenfree however it got better and better everyday. But when i'm sitting down, I have something around 60, too. Sometimes more and sometimes (very seldom though) less. And I still do now after being...

ARCHIVED Another Question...embarrasing Bm Question
stef-the-kicking-cuty replied to kellyk's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Yeah, I think, it's embarrasing, too. But if you want to stay healthy as a celiac, you have to learn when and where to "investigate" . Hugs, Stef -
ARCHIVED Dumplings
stef-the-kicking-cuty replied to Donna F's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
You can make a slight variation, when you put a little bit of chopped chives in the dumplings. Or another variation is, when you put a piece of bread in the center, when you form them. The bread should be glutenfree of course. And we took old bread for it, that we baked until it was crunchy in the pan, before putting it into the dumpling. Hm! Yam! Yam! That... -
ARCHIVED Dumplings
stef-the-kicking-cuty replied to Donna F's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I can't find the recipe right now, but actually it's really simple. I try to explain without the recipe: First you bring water to a boil and then throw the potatoes in. I always take about 4 or 5 big potatoes for about 4 dumplings. Let them cook until they are real soft. Then take them out, peal them, throw them in a press. I never actually found a... -
Yes, I'm planing a Sweater and/or T-shirt for our travel team. That will have the team-name on the back and on the front something like: "sponsored by Stef G...glutenfree". I don't know, still working on it. I wanted to put it in a rhyme though. But at the moment i'm really busy with finishing all our team suits first. I will give you guys the Pic-Url, when...

ARCHIVED Away From Home For A Whole Month!
stef-the-kicking-cuty replied to a topic in Traveling with Celiac Disease
Try to find out, if there's a health food store or a giants near you. Giants has several sections with glutenfree noodles and cereals and so would the health food store. Do you have the possibility to make something on your own, like in a self-cooking kitchen or something? Hugs, Stef -
ARCHIVED I'm Expecting!
stef-the-kicking-cuty replied to Twister2's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Hm, how is that anyway? Are the soldiers allowed to come home, when there is a due date with a pregnancy? Oh, all that talking about cravings made me hungry for chocolate with hazelnuts. Oh!!! -
ARCHIVED Another Question...embarrasing Bm Question
stef-the-kicking-cuty replied to kellyk's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Hm, never seen anything like that either. Mine is always a little bit lighter brown and then dark brown again. Or sometimes these two colors in one... What did you eat the days before? Hugs, Stef -
ARCHIVED Any Celiac Athletes Out There?
stef-the-kicking-cuty replied to pisand13's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
And I forgot one thing. Because of that anxiety that I might break down, I was holding back most of the time to "safe" energy. My problem now is, I've gotten so used to hold back the last 7 years, that I have to learn now, to go and get my points. I've become into a real defense fighter . Hugs, Stef -
ARCHIVED Any Celiac Athletes Out There?
stef-the-kicking-cuty replied to pisand13's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Hey, wow, you speak out of my heart. Couldn't have said it better . I was so anxious all the time to need a time out, that I was cramping and THEN I really needed a time out. It was like a vicious circle. But most of the time I was thinking, that my trainer sure thinks how lazy I must be. Because it looked like I'm doing nothing for my condition, which... -

stef-the-kicking-cuty replied to angel-jd1's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Yes, mine's lower, too. Weird... I don't know the Fahrenheit though, since we measure it in Celsius. But still, it's under... Especially, when I glutened myself accidentaly. Hugs, Stef
