ARCHIVED Omg...i Might Be On To Something
Rachel--24 replied to Rachel--24's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Great news Julie!! Thats awesome that you're doing so much better. I havent forgotten about my scientificness either. I've been super busy and the last few weeks my moms hubby is on summer vacation from his night time teaching job....which means I dont get too much computer time after work....I have to share. I'm learning. The scientificness... -

Hi everyone. Normally I dont do drive-by's but..... Just wanted to say hello... I'll be having a pretty busy weekend so might not be on too much but will try to pop in here and there.

HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY!! Julie, I got reactions from all the WF BH stuff I tried. It was all very yummy though. I had the corn bread, cherry pie, sandwhich bread and the banana bread. OMG was the banana bread good! There is so much in the ingredients to react to though. I think the biggest one for me is cornstarch....I think its enemy # 1...also...

Yeah....me thinks he's gonna be LOVING all of your gluten-free cooking....soooo BUSTED.

Awww.....you must be missing her already. She was only going off sugar for one day?? For some reason I thought it was gonna be longer than that.
-
Pretty quiet in here tonight. I'm going to bed early again....I ate a pint of store bought ice cream. It was really good but sheeesh...I had told myself no more ice cream for awhile. That was only a few days ago. I hope Morgan is having better luck with her sugar free diet. As some of you know...my mom reads the posts pretty regularly. So...

How funny Andrea. I've done the same thing...lots of times. I dont go hungry though...I end up making something else....forgetting that I've already made something. I'll end up finding my food in the microwave later on..."umm...oh yeah...forgot about that".
-
I think labels and stickers might do the trick. Who knows...maybe she is gluten intolerant herself and is suffering from brainfog....in one ear out the other. Maybe the stickers will *remind* her not to touch your stuff. If she still doesnt get it...she obviously doesnt care and should be asked to leave.

ARCHIVED Please Tell Me It Isn't Rice!
Rachel--24 replied to emcmaster's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
If you're sensitive to cornstarch you should rinse the rice well to get the coating off. -
Yes...I have chemical sensitivities. Its better since gluten-free but the sensitivities are still there...it gets worse or better according to my diet which I'm still tyrying to figure out. I've been gluten-free for over a year now so its something else that is triggering the sensitivities....not gluten. I have problems with fragrances...some perfumes...

Cool! Like everyone said...all that weight is just gonna come right off now. YAY for gluten-free!! Cute pic by the way... Everyone's putting up such cute pics....I'm gonna have to refresh now to see Chelse's cat/penguin. Wondering what thats all about.

I'm so happy for you....when do you start?? haha....actually I dont...but if you'd ever actually seen my room you would know that. Oh yeah.....

ARCHIVED Omg...i Might Be On To Something
Rachel--24 replied to Rachel--24's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Thanks for your post Claire...I would like to respond to some of what you've written but I'm way too tired tonight. I think I may just get a good nights sleep for once. I'll be back tomorrow....I also have some new scientificness I'd like to share. -
ARCHIVED Please Tell Me It Isn't Rice!
Rachel--24 replied to emcmaster's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
My guess is that your reaction came from the pepperoni slices rather than the rice. I'm only saying this because the pepperoni slices would have alot of natural and added chemicals in them and the rice is just rice. As far as multiple intolerances go I'm kind of a believer in that alot of these cases its chemicals we react to and not so much the actual food... -
ARCHIVED Hay Rides?
Rachel--24 replied to Smunkeemom's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Me too Chelse... I'm actually going to the fair on Sunday. There's hay everywhere at the fair...Do I really need to be worried about hay? -
ARCHIVED Parasites
Rachel--24 replied to key's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
How are you guys getting tested?? Parasites arent easily detected and one stool sample is not enough. There should be 4 or 5 samples taken over a 3 or 4 day period to get more accurate results. Never a one day sample. -
Hi Sandy...welcome to Rachelville. You get to do whatever you enjoy most here (except eat gluten)...sooo if you want a job at the Vet...its yours. I think we have a vet already but I'm sure we could use more....I think most of us have pets and we do wanna keep them healthy and happy. Maybe Andrea could post the list...I have forgotten who our...

ARCHIVED All After Having The Last Baby
Rachel--24 replied to thenamesbabe's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Babe...more than likely everything you're dealing with is a direct result of the Celiac Disease. Once you've been gluten-free for awhile you shouldnt have so many other problems. Brainfog was debilitating for me when I was sick...that and depression were among the first things to improve for me. The damage will take some time to heal but once it does and... -
ARCHIVED Omg...i Might Be On To Something
Rachel--24 replied to Rachel--24's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Thanks Vincent, I guess just cuz something is organic and natural...doesnt mean I can eat all of it at once. I'm gonna stay away from high sugar stuff and if I do end up eating it again...it'll be a tiny amount. Although a tiny amount just doesnt do anything for me so I might as well leave it out altogether. -
G'nite Penguin. Come back tomorrow and tell us whats up with the challenge....is it officially over today? Does this mean you've had your biopsy?? How did it go?? Didnt you lose weight the first time you went gluten-free.....I'm sure the weight will come off once you're back on the diet. Are you all glutened out now...did you at least have donuts...
-
No way...I wouldnt wish my "Racheling" habit on anyone.....sheeeesh...what kind of Rachelvillian do you think I am??
-
ROFL I just had a vision of all the Rachelvillians getting together and noone is talking....instead we are all sitting with our laptops typing away.
-
ROFL Yeah...that should be really interesting.

I must have learned young....my Mom says I was always belching when I was younger and apparantly she didnt like it very much. Of course I have no memory of this.
