    Chel- Sorry to hear girl...but I have heard some really hopeful Crohn's recovery stories via the SCD. I know you're already familiar with it...I would definitely give it another look.

    I took Zelnorm for a while. I am not a huge fan of it. For most folks I've talked to, it just gives you D. Have you tried psyllium/fiber supplements? I would exhaust the more natural options first, if you haven't. Psyllium works better for me than Zelnorm ever did...

    These are my online favorites, below. All these stores carry different items, so its hard to find all the brands in one place. Have you tried amazon .com too? They are selling more and more gluten-free food... The gluten-free trading post Open Original Shared Link An entire store in WI where everything is gluten-free. Huge selection and they turn...

    My mom was diagnosed with osteopenia years ago and refused to take meds. She has improved her bone mass via diet, aerobic exercise and weight-bearing exercise. It can be done! Read this thread for some thoughts. I also copied a previous post of mine, below. Open Original Shared Link did your doc talk to you about options for treating your osteopenia...

    We found quite a few options while vacationing in Destin/San Destin. Here is my breakdown of where we went. Bone Fish Grill, near Destin Commons mall (fun mall) Outback is also in Destin and they did a fine job. In Baytowne Wharf, San Destin (cute shopping area) -Another Broken Egg Cafe: Open Original Shared Link (Is also in Destin) ...

    I totally understand, I've had this happen to me many times. But, its best that we don't get too upset, because then we are only hurting ourselves. And this won't be the last time, unfortunately. For some people, its simply being ignorant of the situation...and I think we've probably all had a moment of ignorance in some form. That being said, it does...

    Good Lord. Let's "re-engineer" plants so they can better handle our harmful chemicals. This makes me frustrated for a myriad of reasons too. If it burns you too , join a group to work for awareness and lobbying against this sort of thing...

    Ok, just wanted to reiterate on the whole iron-RLS connection. I just read this research below: Recently, several research teams have taken a closer look at what might cause primary RLS. In particular, recent studies at Johns Hopkins and Pennsylvania State Colleges have found evidence for brain iron deficiency as a cause for primary RLS. This was first...

    Yeah, there are quite a few of us here who aren't the biggest fans of the magazine. Hmm. Well, the magazine is for all types of food allergies, so I would say most of the recipes would be easy for you to make soy free if they aren't already. All the recipes are gluten-free and most are cf. But the instructions usually talk about substituting ingredients...

    Julie- Well, you're not an idiot Its in the panhandle of FL on the gulf. Sunny and 80s now! Its not too far from Ft. Walton beach.

    You know, my issue will be never wanting to throw out any issues. I haven't yet, just want to hang on to all those recipes.

    Make the leap Patti !!

    Wow Lynne, more drama! That is pretty shocking. I hope it gets resolved... And whever they came from--hope there are lots of beautiful ones of you ) (Still can't wait to see a few)

    You should! I'll take notes and give you the full scoop when I get back. (Can't wait to go to the Le Creuset outlet there!)

    I actually don't take anything now. Just birth control and allergy meds. I have thought that I probably don't get to all those levels. Yes--lots of dreams, pretty much every night, vivid and I usually remember most of them. Gives me this feeling that when I wake up in the morning, I feel like I was "working" all night in my sleep. Just thought of...

    Going to Destin tommorrow morning till October 8th I've been working with our hotel and have already contacted several reastaurants who can't wait to make me something gluten-free/cf. I'll post on that later in case other are interested in the area. See y'all later!

    Yes, I also love this magazine. Such great recipes too. I loved the chicken mole from last issue...yum!

    Those cupcake towers (or whatever the technical term is!) are very cool. I also got to eat my own wedding cake. Not that I wouldn't have loved to have been diagnosed years ago...but I'm also glad I was able to enjoy the spice cake we had

    It does bring out the paranoia. I just think of stories of people dropping things, like body parts for example, in big vats of food and not reporting it
  23. jenvan
    No, that is helpful ! Whitball-- That's interesting...b/c I have those kinds of crazy dreams all night. I wonder if mine would go away ?
  24. jenvan
    There is some really good advice here, so I will just chime in with some prayers. Praying faith, courage and perseverance for you. OH, and praying that whoever is involved making a decision will be discerning and see the truth of it all...

    The ones I've used have been propane. Ck out Coleman stoves here: Open Original Shared Link I like the wider versions. I don't recommend this kind as much for outside b/c its not a stable--can get tipsy in the wind with a larger pan on it: Open Original Shared Link
