    Since I know my recruiter has left for the day, and since I can't find a contact # for anyone in HR...should I try to draft up an email stating that this "condition" is covered by the ADA, and that I would be absolutely happy to take an alternate drug test in the time allotted? I could even provide my doctor's phone number and give the name of the poor woman...
  2. Waitingindreams
    Yes. I have tried everything. It was a real struggle for me to get all of that pee out...I don't know if I could do it in under 3 minutes. I have read that this "condition" is apparently covered under the ADA...and that I should be able to ask for an alternate test method (saliva, hair testing, etc) so I am going to try to contact someone at their HR...

    (This is sort of a vent - I'm very upset right now and I need to get this out) I don't have health insurance because I got laid off in late July due to "lack of work" (even though I kept asking my boss for more work) since then I have applied to countless jobs and been on a ton of interviews. I FINALLY, today, received a job offer (after 2 phone interviews...

    I know. He's really sweet. I guess they had it for a good deal at Kmart and he figured he'd grab it. Now I have my spiralizer and a blender! Oh wow...yeah I don't think I'll try to make nut butters in this one. I'll try to keep it lighter. I don't really need to make my own nut butters...I love the S&S brand...the only ingredient is almonds, so that...

    My boyfriend bought me a blender yesterday It was supposed to be a surprise, but he forgot that Kmart sends me e-receipts in the mail...imagine my horror when it thanks me for shopping there when I was nowhere near the store! Lol. Anyway, I believe it's a Hamilton Beach, and he told me it's 700 watt. He just asked me to ask you guys if that strength...
  6. Waitingindreams
    I use coconut flour, but I'm sure it does depend on what you're baking. It's about $5.00 a bag...almond flour is definitely crazy expensive!
  7. Waitingindreams
    Oh! Thanks Karen, I didn't even notice that! I'll definitely check the ingredients if I see the brand in the store.
  8. Waitingindreams
    Thanks for the tips! I will definitely be looking for those in the store. I might even be able to have them on my strict diet! Maybe the BF will like them too, hmm.

    Thanks guys! I'll have to look at it when I am at his house again. He already told his mom we didn't want it, though (using the excuse that it wasn't strong enough) but if I can salvage it I will. Apparently he was looking into blenders/processors on his own since he doesn't know what to get me for Christmas, lol! And I should be getting my spiralizer...

    Face Naturals makes all natural tooth cleansers that are free of all allergens: Gluten, Soy, Corn, etc. Here are the ingredients listed for their peppermint cleanser: Ingredients: (Vegan) organic coconut oil, organic olive oil, organic arrowroot powder, organic stevia leaf, aluminum free baking soda, organic peppermint essential oil (3.10 oz. squeeze...

    BlessedMommy - Yes, I can have coconut. I LOVE coconut flour I have never tried coconut aminos, but I will definitely look into that! If it tastes like soy sauce then I'm sure I'll like it. Oddly enough, I never tried regular soy sauce pre gluten free days, just the gluten free one. There are a few health markets near my bf's house, so if I can't find it...

    These all sound good/interesting! I guess I'm going to have to do some experimenting. My BF grills chicken and vegetables for me, but since it's so cold out now we've kind of retired the grill (I LOVE grilled veggies/chicken) but I plan on baking the fish, and whatever fish I like best can be grilled when it gets warm enough out! I love the idea of covering...

    I've had so many questions lately, as I have done so much more cooking/baking on my own and I am getting extremely overwhelmed. I know glass and stainless steel are the best for cooking in...I use Pyrex for a lot of baking and I recently bought a set of stainless steel pots/pans. My boyfriend got a food processor from his parents. He wasn't sure...

    I think I will try putting lemon slices, olive oil, and salt and pepper on fish - not sure what kind...maybe cod or haddock. Mango salsa sounds good, but I'm going to try to keep it simple. I asked the bf if he would try some and he doesn't want any! Hahaha. I think I'll pick some up this Friday to bake this weekend. Love all the tips!
  15. Waitingindreams
    Yeah, I am definitely trying some of those products once I can add more food back into my diet...wow. The pesto pizza sounds great!
  16. Waitingindreams
    Thanks for the link! In general, those ingredients aren't bad at all - but for this specific diet I saw a few ingredients that are considered illegal - such as tapioca and molasses. But once I am off this diet (or at least once I can have cheat days) this will be perfect - no gluten, soy or dairy! Thanks I love finding products to look forward to trying...
  17. Waitingindreams
    Wow! Thank you all so much for all of the replies. I didn't realize that when companies list 'salt' on processed items it probably isn't iodized salt. I will try to include more iodine rich foods in my diet. I miss potatoes :'( All fish (fresh or frozen) is legal on my diet, provided there are no ingredient items during processing...so that's good. ...

    Okay so...I really don't like fish. The only seafood I ever really enjoy (and rarely) is shrimp, and occasionally fried clam strips (pre gluten-free days). That's it. I haven't even had tuna since I was like 12 years old. I did try mahi mahi awhile back when my coworker brought some in, it was okay. It was like a chicken/fish hybrid but I wasn't too enthralled...
  19. Waitingindreams
    Great! I just wasn't sure if handwashing them was okay or if they should be put through the dishwasher first. Normally I would just throw them in the dishwasher regardless (which is what we ended up doing) but I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to find something else to cook my soup in, and we try to only run the dishwasher when it gets full, instead...
  20. Waitingindreams
    Thanks everyone! That is a big help. We just put a few in the dishwasher. I can't wait to cook with them! Phew. Definitely a money saver
  21. Waitingindreams
    Yup! My bf confirmed they were corningware. If they can be cleaned well and used for gluten free cooking, then I will definitely hold on to them. That's a big help. I wasn't really sure. She gave us a bunch of them. I'm still glad I got a cheap Dutch Oven though, one that doesn't make the soup smell/taste awful Yeesh.
  22. Waitingindreams
    Kareng, here is what I meant by "glass pots" - I don't know what the brand is or what they are used for specifically, but my bf claims his mother used them on the stove. These look exactly like the ones she gave us: Cyclinglady - Thanks for the tips! We did return it, thankfully they took it back and we got a refund. We grabbed a 14 piece stainless...
  23. Waitingindreams
    I was afraid of that. I do hope they take it back...we just bought it yesterday and we have the receipt/packaging for it. The bottom is now slightly scratched...not sure how as we used a sponge to wash it but didn't scrape at it. Ugh. I'm trying to look for stainless steel pots or possibly glass...but I can't seem to find glass pots anywhere and stainless...

    Last night my boyfriend and I bought a non stick Dutch oven at Stop & Shop. I read the directions and washed it with hot, soapy water and cleaned it before I started to cook. I made homemade black bean soup that's quick and easy, all you need to do is add the ingredients together and heat it up. You do have to bring it to a boil, but you don't leave it...
