    Thanks for the thoughts... I met with my internist yesterday and at this point we're just going to retest later to see if it increases. I just wondered as it was negative previously and has gone up....post gluten-free. Oh well ! Hopefully it will stay or go back down again.

    Aw my Lynnie... Praying for you today. How you bear it all I don't know...faith, family, friends... Put this verse below, always an encouragement to me of what's to come and thinking of that in the midst of all the brokenness in this world... I put the NIV and the Message translations below as each gives a different perspective I find interesting. Love...

    I had similar results to Susie. IMO, from leaky gut due to Celiac...so technically, some of those should go away as the gut has healed. As Patti suggested, I'd couple this with a food journal/elimination diet. I wouldn't live and die by the IgG testing b/c no one is really sure what eating foods you have an IgG response to actually does or doesn't do....

    Pretty much all hotels have fridges on hand, for people with medications etc. Just ask for one when you make the reservation/check in. As for a travel cooler/fridge... I have one that plugs into your car adapter and the wall outlet. It gets pretty cold and can function as a fridge/cooler. I'd say that might be the most worthwhile item. Now, I'm not...

    Oh-so glad to hear it! We actually ate all ours too--usually I freeze some, but not this time.

    I do Patti. I wash the lettuce...spin off the water in the spinner and then pour the water out that collected in the bottom. Then I put in my lettuce, veggies etc. It is really a time saver for me during the week.

    I know...if they keep it going it'll start looking like desperate housewives McDreamy was looking hot, but how can you not want to just cuddle up with Chris O? Yeah Patti--we'd be in tv-trouble without our tivo. Thursday night 4 of our shows are on alone. Oh the conundrum ! I am so tivo-minded now (embarassed to say) that sometimes when...
  10. jenvan
    Oh, what would we do with out Tivo in our household? We watched CSI and Grey's both
  11. jenvan
    No, you don't have to have one. I would just pat dry the leaves with a paper towel so they aren't wet. In support of the salad spinner though... I LOVE mine. I eat salad every day for lunch. Sunday night I fill my salad spinner with lettuce, my veggies etc, and just pull out a handful each morning for my lunch. It keeps my salad fresh till the end...

    No way. My favorite cf/gluten-free chocolate chips are tropical source--so rich and yummy !

    I've never had any issues with this mix. Could it have been the egg replacer perhaps? Anyone else here use egg replacer in a chebe mix?

    Quinoa flakes and flour will be pretty different. Flakes look similar to oatmeal. Read this recent thread if you haven't seen it already... I made the cookies you're probably talking about...they were good ! You can use the flour as a sub in other recipes. It has a nuttier taste, so remember that when you're subbing. Open Original Shared Link You...

    Hope I'm not wrong , but guessing gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender ? That's what GLBT always meant to me...

    Good luck Good luck!

    Thanks Taz--that is very sweet of you! Think you'll ever brave putting up a picture? It is fun to put faces to all the names...
  18. jenvan
    Yeah "Alfred", we ain't buyin' it

    I think you posted this once before. Wish I had the info for you! Have you tried e-mailing and asking them ? Here's their e-mail: admin@namastefoods.com

    You will notice a difference in many of the products and most of the breads, cakes aren't as fluffy or light. You will have to experiement and try different ones to see what you like best. There are some really good mixes and recipes out there, so tell your friend to be patient and she will find some she will enjoy.
  21. jenvan
    That's great news for your friend! You mentioned something about recipes....honestly, what I do mostly is take old standby recipes and just convert them. ie. someone here posted about using the original toll house recipe to make gluten-free cookies. I also do that--meaning, take a gluten-free flour mix (don't forget the xanthan gum) and sub it 1 for ...
  22. jenvan
    I still use the toll house recipe too with a gluten-free flour mix. I prefer to convert old recipes rather than use new ones....gotta love the old favorites. Congrats to you on the success!

    So glad to hear it karen...

    Congratulations !!!

    There are such an array of symptoms for Celiac, that yes, these could be related to that. However, if you continue to have these symptoms, esp joint pain, fatigue, ulcers, anemia...you should go to a doctor and get investigated for some other conditions/diseases too, ie. lupus. I understand too--eventually, after getting no answers, you do start to doubt...
