  1. I have read some on Asperger's Syndrome, and some signs I match-up with, but not all. The eye contact resonates. I have trouble relating to people's emotions and empathy all the time, so I find people prefer it when I don't say, "I know how you feel," and instead I say, "I'm not really sure what to say right now, but I will definitely listen." I am sensitive...
  2. several more coupons for Enjoy Life Products, Mary's Gone Crackers, Crunchmaster Crackers, etc. are available at the link below. credit has to go to hip2save.com once again. she's been posting a lot of gluten-free coupons and deals lately, so I want to pass them onto others Open Original Shared Link
  3. so I've had a problem with holding eye contact for as long as I can remember. In order to really focus on what somewhat is saying, I have a habit, which has been pointed out multiple times to me, that I look down to the left. I know in society that not holding eye contact deems a person shifty and untrustworthy, but in my case, it's a problem when...
  4. I grew up pretty close to Utz, so those are my preferred brand, especially the rippled ones
  5. when I had a free cholesterol screening completed the other month, I was told my numbers were great. When searching for what cholesterol numbers meant, I initially came across this thread, and that low cholesterol does exist and it's not necessarily a good thing. My cholesterol has been dropping, but my fat intake hasn't been, and I eat carbs In fact...
  6. so this might see like a strange post, but after giving it some thought, besides portion control, why do potato chips have such a bad reputation? yes, I know they are nowhere near the nutritional density of spinach or kale, but if they are whole, sliced potatoes with non-hydrogenated oil, cooked to crispy perfection, what's so bad about them? Although...
  7. so as part of work, we've been following the Leader in Me training module, which comes with the book The 7 Habits of Happy Kids to share with our classes. tasha, your comment reminded me of the first habit: Habit 1-Be Proactive. You're in charge. rorenchan-I'm so sorry your friend is not taking her health seriously, but in the end you can only...
  8. I continue to be amazed at all the connections to gluten, nutrient absorption and how they show in the human body. i love that on this site, you can post what's happening with your body, and it's so comforting to hear you're not the only one although I can't relate with premature greying, i can believe that the connection between a gluten challenge...
  9. I was visiting family this weekend, and my Dad had made cookies and asked if I wanted any. I asked if they had flour, and he thought he was being funny by saying he used gluten-free flour...except they have no gluten-free flour the probability of cross contamination, even if he did use gluten-free flour, is very high in my parent's house. Since I don...

  12. I really like Bare Minerals foundation! Right now I'm using the Original Foundation. I'm a fan of their brushless mascara too, but I had to buy it online because I couldn't find it in Ulta or an actual Bare Minerals store Open Original Shared Link
  13. i read an article called Food Matters in this month's Gluten-Free Living Magazine: Inside Autism supplement that states, "Approximately 90 percent of the brain chemical serotonin is found in the gut." If your digestion is impeded because of gluten and other intolerances, and that messes with your serotonin levels, yet another reason for why depression...
  14. copied this from another thread I posted in. here's the link to the whole thread if you're interested https://www.celiac.com/forums/topic/100816-anxiety-and-depression/ I think stomach acid is under appreciated check out Why Stomach Acid is Good for You "Hi tennisman, when I went for my EGD, I was diagnosed with GERD and a hiatal hernia...
  15. I posted in the other thread, and then I thought I should probably add it here too. thanks, Irish for both replies! check is in the mail
  16. i posted this in another area on the forum, but thought i'd add it here as well: has anyone seen the Gluten Cutter digestive formula advertised yet? I just saw a coupon for it on coupons.com however I will not be printing it...at least not anytime soon here's the site's intro: "For most of people, the thought of eliminating gluten-containing...
  17. has anyone seen the Gluten Cutter digestive formula advertised yet? I just saw a coupon for it on coupons.com however I will not be printing it...at least not anytime soon here's the site's intro: "For most of people, the thought of eliminating gluten-containing foods from our diets seems unreasonable. Yet a growing number of people are realizing...
  18. so in February, I was considered Vitamin D deficient with a level of 25.3 with a reference range of 30-100. I was told to supplement with 2000 iu a day, which I did, in addition to the 1000 iu that is in my multi-vitamin. I got my results back from my 3 month follow-up, and I am now at a 35.1, so I am no longer deficient by the labs standards, so that is...
  19. I have to use Labcorp for my insurance and a complete celiac panel for them consists of the tests I listed above. On the other hand Quest Diagnostics says DGP are still considered experimental. come to a consensus people what lab are you having them done through? is labcorp an option for you? check out page 12 of the report for specificity and...
  20. it is gluten free, but I never had much success with it. maybe because at that point I was using it while still on a gluten containing diet. since going gluten free, I've woken up and taken between 3-7 Citrucel caplets in the morning on an empty stomach with water, and that usually gets the day started Miralax was what my GP first prescribed when I said...
  21. so today was a good day for deals on gluten free deals via hip2save.com I'll admit I'm not familiar with any of these products, so if you have any input, please share! $1 Coupon for Canyon Bakehouse Breads Open Original Shared Link $10 off $25 at Abe's Market Open Original Shared Link Nana's Cookies Open Original Shared Link and...
  22. they're listed on the Hannaford site, but they're manufacturer coupons, so you can use them anywhere. here's what hip2save.com stated, "Note that these are regular manufacturer’s coupon that do not print with any mention of Hannaford Stores and do not print with the Hannaford store logo." you should be good to use these anywhere. Hope this h...
  23. thought I'd share that I only bought Wet n Wild nail polish because it was gluten free, but I am so glad I did! The Megalast line is great, and when I use the clear nail protector as a base and top coat, along with color, the only reason I have to repaint my nails is because they've grown, not because they've chipped! this stuff is so much better than the...
