  1. Debbie: To make a long story short. We live in Edenton, NC about an hour and fifteen minutes from the northern shore of the outer banks. When we moved to Edenton, about 30 years ago, we shared a drive way with Hazel and Logan. Logan died, a few years later Hazel's son died with cancer in his late 30's, and a few years later her son Raleigh, was...
  2. Thanks. I will just put on gluten stuff to reference. When you go to OBX there is a great natural food store there, next to the Outer Banks Bread Company. Great place for lunch, but have not since gluten-free. I think it is around the 6mile post. Right side going south. You comming any time soon? We tend to a place at the 1 1/2 milepost across the...
  3. Hey Guys: I have read that many of you have palm pilots to aid you in your selections at the grocery store. I am rather technically inept and would be not sure how to work it. ...but I guess I can figure it out. How useful has it been to you? I'm getting the hand of shopping, buy using the lists that I am sure of when I buy. Would you feel that...
  4. My favorite is Seagrams 7 and 7-up with a slice of orange ummm. It is almost totie time
  5. I'll give it a try, thanks.
  6. Hey Guys: Just a quick question. I am two months into gluten-free diet and still healing. I have been drinking V-8 Juice at work. It is healthy and gluten-free, but it just doesn't seem to stay in....maybe too much acid? Anyone have an issue with this?. Lisa B.
  7. Everyone is worthy of a reply of some kind. Try submitting your post and I am sure that you will get a reply. We are all here to be supportive in any way that we can be. Some are experts in different aspects of celiac disease. This is the week-end, sometimes there is a lull in hits from posts... Hang in there and keep trying.
  8. Shirley: Glad to talk to you again. I am still not healed, so I don't know whether it is gluten or not. I guess that will take some time. I have only entered a few new things into my diet. Oscar Meyers bacon bits, Oil of Olay vit. (clearly say "gluten free" and Clinique lipstick that I have checked to be gluten-free, Annie Roasted Pepper dressing...
  9. I have lost weight over many years 5'8", 123 most likely through no obsorbtion. There are others here that have gain weight. Most Dr.'s don't specialize in Celiac Disease, unless they are associated with a learning institution such as Mayo and John's Hopkins. Most GP's are aquainted with celiac disease in med school and few have seen "real cases". I read...
  10. Tangerine: I, too, have gastritis as well as celiac disease. I don't know if there is a connection between the two. I take Prilosic (it is gluten-free) in the morning and one before bed and that seems to help alot. Hope you feel better soon Lisa B.
  11. Welcome to the board! You have just entered the biggest treasure on this site, much more than you can imagine. I have been reading/monotoring this site for about 4 months and it truly is a God-send. To begin with, read everything you can read on this message board, it is a great resource. There are so many people that have been where you are now. ...
  12. It's okay, don't worry.....Just is a simple mis-communication/or reaction. Keep us with you. We are alll one BIG Family here. We could start a thread about Theology, Sex and Politics............. wouldn't that be interesting. Think that we better stay where we are. Made some good friends here, don't want to go there. Keep posting, we are all here...
  13. Great, I am truly glad this issue is over........now we can get on to other things. Thanks to our Jewish friends on board (not-non- religious friends) that easily cleared up an SMALL issue. We are all bonded here by a common infliction. We come from all walks of life and religion has no place here. I do feel stongly that this forum should be dedicated...
  14. After reading the above...I am certain no offense was intented. Perhaps a simple typo. We are grateful that we have the benefit of this wonderful site that has been literally, a life saver for many of us. I, too, would like to express my gratitude to all the many that have responded to my posts with question that they have already answered to others...
  15. With two months into gluten free..... I am now feeling better, slowly. I have been keeping most of my meals where they should be. It still seems that every third day is not so good. After lunch for several hours are bathroom trips. It is slow, but progressive improvements. It does seem that on those bad days, my hands shake and it is almost impossible...
  16. Found it on the current site, thanks.
  17. Thanks for all the information. It all sound so technical to me. You all have way advanced me. Have a question....What is Gluten Ataxia? I have heard that come up no and again, but don't know what it is Thanks again for your impute. Lisa B.
  18. Try McCormicks Vanilla, to the best of my knowledge, it is gluten-free.
  19. I'm 5"8' and I can't find jeans to fit my slender bod....long and lean (not proud, not bragging,) just would like to find a pair of jeans that will fit. Any suggestions..... Lisa B.
  20. Hey every one that has helped me through Celiacland: I am posting this because I feel it can help some of the new people (not that I am not one, but think it can help someone). I have been two month gluten free (as always, as best as I am able). My energy is creaping back, I have more positive thoughts, I can tackle more tasks and basically have a...
  21. I have the CSA Product book and it is great for starters. I reference it when I go to the grocery store. It helps me memorize brand names and I usually buy two of each that I know is safe ....it helps me imprint my brain. I have dropped some hints about a palm pilot for my upcomming birthday (along with it I want a personal technician to show me how...
  22. For all of you out there, that are not gluten free yet........eat a really BIG piece of chocolate cake for all of us, please (but don't tell us how good it was). Lisa B.
  23. It took me 10 minutes to read your post Do not go Gluten Free before any test or you won't be a true read. Endocopy test is no problem and you won't remember.....Good luck Lisa B.
