ARCHIVED My Health And Marriage Issues
Swimmr replied to BeckyMN's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Everyone here has awesome advice... I am just a newly wed...as of June 3rd 2009 Just simply let him know what you are GOING to do and not in a I-don't-know-if-you-will-condone-it type of way. And just do it. If you need a bath, take a nice warm bubbly bath. If you don't feel like cooking breakfast, don't. My theory is (and I'm sure it's no theory... -

ARCHIVED Tinkyada Pasta
Swimmr replied to twe0708's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
My whole foods, called the Apple Crate here has Tinkyada. PM me for location. However I started buying the Schar brand. It's European...German to be exact and the noodles have a consistency that of egg noodles. I LOVE it!! Hehe I love the picture on the homepage Open Original Shared Link They also have a bread that is really tastey -
Yes thankyou Children's vitamins always taste yummy, MMmmm...making me hungry. Stupid coworkers all ordered chinese today. Update! I'm freakin HUNGRY. I ate two banana's already today...and at 10:30 had to eat half my lunch which is chicken and carrots. I don't know about later...all I have is pears. I am not supposed to add those yet. Notes...

Hmmm didn't know that...and McD's does, wow.
-
I like meats...pepperoni and hamburger and sausage and peppers and onion and cheese...lots of cheese and olives...about anything EXCEPT anchovies...I don't do those. I've had pizza once in 2 years. My mother's homemade pizza. OMG so good.

Thankyou Sophie! I woke up extremely hungry this morning... Might be a bit TMI, but every morning around 6am I have my bowel movement...not had it yet. All in all I feel relatively alert this morning. That's a good sign.
-
I don't TOUCH McD's...AT ALL, what-so-ever! If I crave fries, I head to Wendy's...and they either have like NO salt or very little. But now I'm thinking I have a soy intolerance, so I won't be doing fries until I know for sure.
-
Well thankyou so much for your input. I am almost 99% certain I am tolerant with the veggies I have in my chicken. I mean I suppose I should consider that I could be intolerant to celery or mushrooms. I didn't eat salmon tonight. I ate chicken and the mixed vegetables again. I will cut it down though to just chicken and carrots then tomorrow through...

Day 1 (before I buy a book) Since I know I don't have issues with almonds or walnuts, I bought some last night at my whole foods store. I also bought Candida Freedom, Candida Digest, and Inulin which is a prebiotic. I am taking my Cranberry, Vitamin D, my Multivitamin, Pre/Probiotic, and Inulin. This is a total of 6 pills and 1 tsp of the Inulin...

Thankyou. I know I seem like a broke record. I'm going to buy a book today. I didn't think I would have to, ya know? So today I am trying to start it... With my history in bodybuilding, my competition diets usually consisted of only chicken and broccoli, chicken and brown rice, or chicken and sweet potato. After my pm workout, but before 8pm I would...

ARCHIVED Feeling Extremely Frustrated
Swimmr replied to stickymommy's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Over the last few years I had a sudden onset of what looks to be anxiety or panic attacks, eye sight problems, and balance issues (running into walls, corners), and real bad forgetfulness...however I was quickly given a prescription for Ativan and was told I have anxiety and was sent on my way. I ASKED for an MRI and was denied by two completely different... -
crapola, I can't delete it...

Thought vegetables are on the "no" list. ya'll I need some help and I'm seeing so many different things that I literally don't even know where to start with it.
-
Did more researching today, no clarity...I suppose I will have to buy a book for this...sheesh
-
Oh and I drink a qt almost every two hours...literally. Some days I might not get exactly that...but still, I KNOW I'm drinking plenty when I urinate so much people in my office ask why I have to go so much. On average every 1/2 hour or so. Then the occasions when I absolutely have to hold it...like driving time and running errands doesn't count.
-
The SFD doesn't give me any clarification at all. It says I can eat legumes...but flours made from legumes is in a list of items to avoid. Two other places I went to research elimination diets said NO legumes at all. That makes no sense to me. I listed out what the contradictions were hoping maybe I could get an "ok" or a "no." I am still trying t learn...
-
Ok I did some research today for elimination diets. However I found contradictories from one site to the next. Meats That Are Safe: Lamb, halibut, orange roughy, tuna, snapper, wild salmon, crab, lobster, deer, duck, rabbit, goose, cornish game hens, clams, pheasant. The contradiction is shellfish; crab, lobster, fish in general Vegetables That...

ARCHIVED The Funny Pages - Tickle Me Elbow - The Original
Swimmr replied to TriticusToxicum's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Yup got that right... YOU snorted...bwahahahahahahaha! Glad to have made ya'll laugh -
Yes. I blew up at work the day my mom texted me to say that I could no longer eat a specific item and right now I can't remember. Broke down in tears in the bathroom. Now when I find new info I just take it for what it's worth. My mom and I were just discussing this the last time I went to visit her a few weeks ago. All that we learn makes us (in the...

why did Tigger stick his head in the toilet?? Because he was looking for POOH! -
Perhaps if we were raised on these alternatives we would have never become accustomed to the way REAL bread or REAL pie crusts taste. If given a sample of real wheat bread after 20 some or more years of being used to gluten free bread, we'd probably say, "Omg, this is horrible..." Or...maybe not. I just keep thinking that one day I'll get used to...

The restaurant thing for me is VERY depressing. However some offer the "gluten free menu" to which they'd be better off leaving off the meals and having a statement saying, "Sorry, but you're screwed" instead. I went to Crazy Fire Mongolian Bbq and ended up sushi instead because of how the food is prepared...lots of cross contamination. At least with...

We all have felt helpless at some point. For me it's starting over again with realizing I have other intolerances besides wheat and gluten. Also with the realization I may be suffering a bit more in other areas. Back at square one with trying to read and get as much info. Just remember we all have suffered in the same fashion and we all are alive...
