    Tawnia--as katherine mentioned -- right now! I wouldn't worry to much...as they studies are still new and few...the info could change again. However, yes, as it stands the research points to a "sweet spot" between 4 and 6 mos.

    No way do I cheat. Feeling like crap, increased risk of cancer, my body damaging myself? Not worth it to me, its just food afterall... Work hard to find some gluten-free alternatives you like just as much so you aren't as tempted to cheat...that's a help to some.

    ARCHIVED Ocular Rosacea?

    jenvan replied to a topic in Related Issues & Disorders

    Have you been officially diagnosed with ocular rosacea? It does sound that like, but I wondered if sjogren's could also be possible. Are you diabetic by chance? I'm sure there is someone here who would have more info on the floaters etc. I don't get those, but I do have rosacea and a pretty persistent dry, irritated eyes. It sounds like you have some...

    That rocks! I'm glad you're going to be able to get what you like--and also help provide for others!

    Chel- I hope you choose to stay and stick with things....those that really need help here are worth it! ...And aside from all the serious reasons, your just a fun girl I really stay away from the political, radical, controversial type threads when I see them coming. My time is limited and so I want to give it to helping people here, my main goal...

    I just have to say--I made cookies from the recipe I posted above, and they were great!!! Pretty close to oatmeal cookies, taste really good! I am digging the quinoa flakes. Try it!

    Great timing! I just ordered some quinoa flakes to make "granola" and will have to try this.

    I can help you find specific recipes if you like, but here are things I freeze for later: any kind of soups, stews tortillas homemade spaghetti sauce paella type crockpot meals chili blondies, cookies sauces

    Yeah, I've been eating it all week and am finishing the bag off today !

    Well, since we *are* women, I think we can call ourselves whatever we like ! However, that rule doesn't apply to the "guys!" I like to use all of them, depending on the situation NOW--I sent Lynne the pic this morning--so its out of my hands!

    How about trying some new gummy gluten-free grains like quinoa or millet? They cook quickly and easily. You can use these with spices, different meats, beans, veggies etc and make many variations on dishes like paella or rice and beans. Easy, pretty fast and yummy!
  16. jenvan
    Yeah, she told me later on that she was kind-of mad you didn't even *try* to snuggle with her. Gosh Lynne !

    I'm not sure if they have a honey mustard, but when I cked with French's, all their mustards were gluten-free.
  18. jenvan
    Ha ha ! That's right--a serious waxing helps Although Pookie will be mad if she hears she got booted from my avatar

    Thanks for posting these--I'm so curious what they're like!
  20. jenvan
    Damn--I wish they deliver to Destin while I was there I mean, that's closer than NJ !
  21. jenvan
    Nice! I figured they probably were... very allergy-friendly brand

    Obviously not paying real attention to the compliant--hence the bit on loyalty and continuing to choose our products

    Really? That's amazing! I'm so glad to hear it friend!

    Bone scans are typically considered one of the tests to run post-diagnosis. Osteopenia/osteoporosis are often found in celiacs, more so women of course. I had one at 25 when I was diagnosed. However, it isn't considered essential by some. The good thing about having it done is that if your bone density needs attention you will know it and have time to...

    I know there are a few here in S Africa, so hopefully they will respond, but you can also ck with the groups below for local help: The South African Coeliac Society advises contacting them before and after arrival in the country. They can provide a Food List as well as local information on restaurants, etc. In some cities gluten-free food is not available...
