  1. yeah, you fit right in lolz bacon goes with everything, right y'un's ?
  2. oops - almost forgot - once you're gluten-free, you may discover that you have other intolerances that weren't evident when gluten was still making you sick - topping the list: corn & soy. i have a secondary soy sensitivity that i was unaware of until i started feeling better off the gluten. it mimics a gluten hit, but doesn't last as long. i try...
  3. the amount of hunger i experience is directly co-related to how far away i am from safe foods lolz - if i walk outside and forget my snackbackpack, i am instantly starving! in the beginning, i kept a food journal and i wrote down everything that passed my lips and how i felt after eating. when i was first dx'd, it was suggested to cut out all dairy, because...
  4. y'all are nuts but: what talent! i can't believe you may have topped to poop thread - certainly you are Topping the Charts you should see my hair, now, katie - compared to what it was (very, very thin hair, itchy scalp and i was basically pulling out what wasn't falling out) it's now getting an 'underlayer' and is looking and feeling fuller...
  5. good job, w8n4! great to hear - keep up the good work. (housework? what housework?! )
  6. it's really surprising, isn't it? i never thought i would get any energy back (last summer i actually played kickball and didn't die of exhaustion lolz) it certainly is incentive to keep us on the right track keep on keepin' on!
  7. i have a 5 right here. he cannot stop talking about his butt/your butt/anybody's butt
  8. i did that but it kept the older title......... hmmmm.....
  9. small world, lolz - i bet you know where the st. moritz is, then (lake mohawk) <i lived there and on sunset lake (off of glen road) when i lived in sparta. got married in blairstown, where hope is never far away (because it's the next exit haha) i had cousins and aunts who lived in maywood both of my parents grew up in wayne. if you get out to visit...
  10. coolio there is a pizza place in oak ridge that is safe, if you happen out that way. also, mama's (but that is closer to the delaware than the hudson lolz) out in hackettstown. annnd the restaurant my sister works at is finally making things 'safe' so there is another place in sparta (sussex county, tho) yep, she is an r.n. at the hospital, her apartment...
  11. yeh! and jersey is the place to get 'good' italian do they have pizza (please say yes, please say yes, please say yes!) lolz
  12. coots - you are my eyes and my ears - i go to nj every summer (i'm from west milford/oak ridge/ jefferson twp) and i am needing places around hackensack - my neice lives in an apartment there and works in hackensack hospital. every time we go to visit (rooftop pool!! woo hoo!! lolz) we always stay later than we mean to then try to get back to oak ridge...
  13. my church is like that, too i absolutely love them - they are like family. all the kids are all of our kids, so funny to watch them grow into adults and then have kids of their own. my grandkids go to choir practice, just like mine did. i still make meals for the youth and kids groups even though none of them are mine. yesterday i sewed a robe for a...
  14. there ya go - advance planning is the way to go. i have a 'snack pack' - a backpack i always have with me when i leave the house. that way, i'm not starving and tempted to make bad or unsafe choices. sometimes it just has snacks, sometimes i pack it with dinner or a sandwich, etc.
  15. my sister's doctor told her a lesser number, too. i don't know if there are different tests? she was at 17 <feeling completely miserable until she started supplementing and having no idea why. i had no idea vitaminD was so important, but i can feel the difference maybe ask your doc?
  16. insincere salad dressing - haha is that woman implying aaron sanchez has unctuous hair gel? lololz maybe made from beef tongue yes, i also have my mean-looking, big man - so i usually don't have anyone brave enough to try to pick me up. last night, i was sans said man and mr next town over doesn't know who i am. or that they call my hubs...
  17. mine was 24 and my doc said it should be more like 75 ? so, yeah, that's low. i am on D2 50000 iu per week (1x per wk) plus i take D3 in between and now (after probably a year) it's up to 54. my doc didn't discontinue the supplement, so he must want it higher
  18. —used to describe someone who speaks and behaves in a way that is meant to seem friendly and polite but that is unpleasant because it is obviously not sincere vinaigrette ???
  19. ok, love2, ya got me again! ima hafta google that one (not the vinegrette part lolz) tonight is tuesday surprise - i'll be surprised if i eat One More Time today, i have been a p-i-g pig. maybe some gelato, if i can stand something cold in this weather (besides a bards ) last night i had dinner at some hoity toity place in the next town over...
  20. plenty of us have been misdiagnosed, i'm sad to say keep eating gluten until after you get all the tests you need. good luck
  21. i used to bring a toaster, now i just use their oven (with tinfoil) to toast or thaw whatever. i used to bring a cutting board and knives, but now i just clean one of their stainless steel ones really good and cut on paper plates (i double up the heavy duty ones) if i cut through them or they start getting cut apart, i throw them away, get new plates, finish...
  22. that is awesome, annette!!! and great advice, as well it does get a little bumpy sometimes, but soooooooooo worth it. i, too, was limping toward my open grave and i'm so glad i COMMITTED to this diet. it takes a little ironing out to make sure you are strictly gluten-free and, you're right - that is so important. thanx for this encouraging post love...
  23. i'm not a body builder and i barely work out, but i had to give up my career :( i am a freight broker (a *natural* as i was brought up in the trucking industry - cut me, i bleed diesel lolz) i tried working from home, but found i was not interested in eating when i was making deals (can't munch in the customer's ear) and it's constant busy if you're doing...
  24. it's a big change! it IS stressful! cut yourself some slack, sweetie, and give it some time. i don't know how long your celiac was 'activated' (by your injury? i am guessing?) but you have had it for awhile and it's been busy tearing up your guts. i suffered with mine for 25 years, and i am at year 3 gluten free - still healing - i know this because...
