thanks, guys . I'll have to look at those sites. I know, if the soy sauce substitute doesn't work for beef jerky, it still sounds yummy . I miss putting soy sauce and garlic powder on grilled ribs... so I am going to have to try that sometime! thanks again!

Ok... so I am pregnant (going on 6 weeks)... and I just feel like I can't eat enough protein. I always craved it prior to my period too... but now I just feel like I need it more and more. I love beef jerky, and miss it. Especially now. haha. I can't find any that do not contain gluten or soy, and all the recipes I have for it contain soy sauce also...

And they also have soy for those of you who can't tolerate soy lecithin or any other soy...

Don't mind at all I was on birth control for roughly 3 years (started the month before we were married). I had to switch types a couple times due to side effects. Last year, I started having menopausal symptoms. I was 26. Not a good thing. My grandmother went through menopause at 38 and my aunt at 40 (looking back, I'm convinced my grandmother had...

Thanks guys for your advice . it is all so helpful . I greatly appreciate it! and I'll be sure to pass the congrats on to my hubby, aka Dad (who is already wrapped around the baby's little finger. haha)

Thanks lizsard00 . I did pick that book up from the library yesterday, and my sister is getting me a copy from a book exchange thing she does... so far it's pretty interesting. this is our first, and they are a surprise . I will be sure to stock up on good gluten-free snacks and easy prep foods. My naturopathic doctor has me on some supplements (along...

Just found out I'm about 4.5 weeks along. It was, of course, a surprise (see the topic haha) . I've never tried to conceive before, so I don't know if I would have had problems... I know my hormones were a mess. I've been gluten free for about a week longer than I've been pregnant. haha. so apparantly, it was easy for me. Does anyone have any good...

I can relate... gluten free for about a month, (and I had been for a bit before that, too, while on an elimination diet...) and it seems my appetite is HUGE. I can't seem to get enough to eat, ever. I ate 6 tacos for dinner, and I didn't even feel full. 6 tacos!!!! I always used to get bloated and uncomfy, and my stomach would stick out, and I'd have...

Oh boy! I'm super excited! I just picked some up this weekend, not knowing what to expect... now I want to try it soon! maybe I will this week!

Actually, I found out that I had a parasite before I found out about anything else... I got tired of the run around from every doctor on the planet, and decided to go to a chiropractor who is certified in naturopathic medicine and applied kinesiology. Not quite sure how it all works, but it does. Somehow, he figured out I had a parasite. So I took...

Does anyone get annoying muscle twitches? Like the kind you get when your eye pulsates, but ALL over your body? Like in your arms... legs... side... buttocks... you can visibly see your body twitch, too. It doesn't hurt, but it's annoying! Also, does anyone get a really hot face/head for no reason (no fever)? And how about where it feels like your...

I've had the nausea, the acne, the warts (when I was a kid... I had a lot of them on my hands), the feeling of hypoglycemia and the need to eat every few hours... I guess I never thought the acne or warts could be connected... Kind of frustrated w/ acne, because you think you'd outgrow it by the time you are in your late 20's... haha. haven't had the...

Well, thanks.... there are quite a few of them, and no, no children . No miscarriages either. I was on bc, and was having major issues w/ that, and stopped about a year ago. they started when I was on it. but I had been on it for a while, (2.5 years or a little more at that point... started it when I got married). thanks

Ok... I know this isn't the newest thread... but Hooray for fellow Pennsylvanians I'm originally from RI, but went to Duquesne out in Pittsburgh, PA, and now live in Lancaster County, PA . We love it. I work in Harrisburg, too. exciting.

thanks! sent mine in
