    Glad you got it figured out!

    I was watching a cooking show, and it suggested putting the toppings in the oven for a few minutes while you make the dough so that some of the water content will evaporate and the pizza won't get mushy which cooking. I love black olives, onions, mushrooms and banana pepper rings on my pizza. And lots of red pepper. I also add oregano to the dough which...

    I'd have a long talk with him, too. This is unreasonable behavior and is putting your and your daughter's health at risk. You are lucky that your daughter is so good about the diet and not eating things that have been contaminated by him.

    I've never had this error, but this page has an easy-to-follow idea on what you can do: Open Original Shared Link Hopefully this will help!

    When I was a kid I did not have celiac yet, and I brought my lunch from home everyday. My parents had brainwashed me about the need for healthy food so I was never jealous of the other kids eating school lunch. In fact, I distinctly remember being terrified about forgetting my lunch because I was scared to go through the hot lunch line. I mean, how would...

    I would do the gluten sensitivity test from enterolab and maybe the gene test - if you want to do enterolab testing. But I would agree that you should go gluten-free with her now. With kids this young, you can usually tell pretty quickly if gluten is a problem. At that point you may want to stay gluten-free from dietary response rather than paying for...

    New wooden spoons, too! Wood is one of the things I would absolutely replace along with the toaster. Other baking items are more of a judgment call.

    If you are gluten free, I don't see why this would be celiac related. There are two types of arthritis: Rheumatoid arthritis which is autoimmune and can be diagnosed via blood test (although I'm starting to wonder how accurate the test is) and osteo arthritis which is caused by small cracks in the cartilage as you age. I believe the latter comes on...

    I wanted to add that the number of reps you do each workout is going to vary. You may want to aim in the 12-15 range, but you should do as many as you can until you fatigue. So gradually the number of reps will increase until you get above 15 or 20 reps (depending on what you decide), and then you should increase weight and you'll be back down in the 8...

    Yeah, I don't think I would have been so nice, either Why the heck does he want to re-prove you have celiac? You had a positive biopsy four years ago - that's the current medical "golden" standard - what more does he want??? And say he changes your diagnosis to IBS. Where does that leave you? Probably taking drugs and not feeling that much better. ...

    Everyone else has touched upon trying to get to the root of why this is such as issue. As for cooking gluten-free - it's not that hard once you get the diet down. If she makes tacos, is it such a big deal to have corn tortillas instead of wheat? Then the whole family can be gluten-free. If she's making pasta, she can use rice pasta. There are many...

    Aww, that's really wonderful of your pastor to do this! I love string cheese, but you might not have access to a refrigerator. How about raisins? Or homemade trail mix?

    You can either do high weight and low reps (which is good for bulking up) or low weight and high reps (which is better for toning). I'm guessing you want the latter Either one works just fine as long as you do enough reps to reach exhaustion. The trouble with really low weights (like the 1 and 3lbs) is you have to do a lot of reps to get to that point...

    It sounds like this is a problem with the room, not a problem with insomnia. I started a similar thread a while back. I moved to a new apartment, and there's something not right about the new bedroom. I have trouble sleeping in it - it's like the bed doesn't feel comfortable - but I had no problems before moving. Here is it, there might be some good tips...

    I go on trips with friends all the time. I bring three categories of food: 1. The stuff for just me. I do not leave this out where other people can eat it. I nab a corner of the fridge and hide it away. 2. The stuff I share that I can get contaminated. I will often take some out and put it with my secret stash and share the rest. 3. The stuff I can...

    I think breakfast is one of the easiest meals to eat out for. I love omelettes!

    If you really think you can clean the canister well enough to use it again, I would lend it to a relative or friend who can use up the wheat flour and do the initial cleaning for you. Or maybe let it sit until sometime when you get glutened and then do it since you're already sick (ok, I don't really recommend the latter )

    Here are some of my tips: -Make sure you are working opposing muscle groups. Like if you work your biceps, you should also work your triceps, quads and hamstrings, abs and back, etc. -Work large muscle groups first (like quads and biceps). If you work your smaller muscles like triceps, they may be too fatigued for you to effectively work your biceps...

    I think it's worth a try. There are many who feel humans shouldn't eat any grains for optimal health. I'm not sure I'd know what to eat if I went grain-free, though. I'd be lost without corn and rice.

    Is Cocoa Pebbles the one that added gluten back in recently? Or was that another mainstream chocolate cereal? You might want to check that.

    I have no idea about eating peanuts during pregnancy, but sunflower seed butter tastes nearly identical to peanut butter and you can find it in regular grocery stores.

    As long as she's not losing weight, I wouldn't worry too much. I don't know how long she was sick for, but if it was for any length of time I'm sure she still subconsciously associates some foods with feeling sick. In time I'm sure that will go away (it did for me). I also found there was an difference in what hungry and full felt like pre- and post- diagnosis...

    Thanks for posting - this is always good for a laugh. I saw another list that printed out and put up in my cube at work. The first one was "You read the ingredients on green tea - plain green tea." A coworker read it was with a confused look said "I don't get it." Yeah, well, that's how you know you're not a celiac

    I also use Pantene or Fructis.

    All my personal care products are gluten-free. It's a risk that I'm not willing to take. Even though most celiacs do not get skin reactions from gluten (although those with DH probably do), it's too likely to be ingested. I only get shampoo in my mouth once or twice a year, but that's one or two glutenings that are easily avoidable. I like that my house...
