What are your symptoms when you eat gluten now?--Diarreah, gas, anxiety, watery eyes...
  2. Hi, You need to go to "Edit Avatar Settings"--the photo setting is disabled here. If you still need help--let me know
  3. I did toast the bread in the oven first. What I did was cut it into cubes, spread on a cookie sheet, sprinkle with poultry seasoning and bake at 350 until it was toasted the way I wanted. (You kind of have to keep checking). It turned out pretty well.
  4. Dr. John Kravitz in Mount Laurel, New Jersey. Listened to my story and was open to testing me for Celiac.
  5. It is a lot of sugar--but that's the basic recipe for sweetened condensed milk. For a typical pumpkin pie, the amount of sugar is more like 3/4 cup. This is one of those things where you would have to try it and than make adjustments if necessary. Maybe cut down on the sugar a little bit at first? I'm not completely sure... I'm going to try this...
  6. 1 1/4 cups of sugar to 1 cup of milk--simmer until dissolved. I would imagine you could play with the amount of sugar if you wanted to.
  7. Hi and welcome to the board! I agree with what Carla said, so I won't repeat that advice. I wanted you to know that my doctor (GI) also said that the only thing I had to eliminate was gluten and dairy. I was fine doing that for several months, then my symptoms came back the same as before I was diagnosed. That was when I began to eliminate other...
  8. Jessica-- Those are very nice! That's the best use for an iron that I've ever seen
  9. Yea, I think this is one thing we can all relate to. It's hard, but hopefully when they see that the diet is working, and that it's not so big a deal to you, then hopefully it won't be such a big issue to them, either. We used to eat out every weekend--I never even cooked on the weekends, except Sunday breakfast--but in the past year and a half, I've...
  10. I don't iron either--unless I absolutely have to for a special occasion or something.
  11. Hi and welcome to the board Always great to meet a fellow Central New Yorker I'm glad you found a doctor who will listen and work with you--you're right, that's half the battle right there! Yes, read up on the recipes and the products forums--lots of great info there. Good luck on the tests, and feel free to post with any questions you might have...
  12. The Gluten Free Pantry brownies taste as good or better (I think) than Duncan Hines
  13. Long lost cousin Donna--love it
  14. Wow--would have never thought of that! I stretch a banana into breakfast by slicing it, adding sliced almonds and cinnamom--
  15. Yet another thing we have in common I gained back 10 of the 15 I lost while sick in 2 months post gluten-free! I've managed to put on another 10 or so--it varies--that I definately don't need
  16. Hey Brizzo-- I remember when you first started posting here! Glad you're sticking around, and that you find us heplful (if not a bit looney )! Especially after the last couple of weeks, your post is so nice and refreshing! Thanks
  17. This is exactly how I feel about Oprah--I used to love her show years ago. Then, for one reason or another, I just didn't catch it for a while and now, she seems very different. Kind of "entitled", if you will. The whole show has a different feel.... I still watch when Dr. Oz is in
  18. Elizabeth--I'll bet that Vance's made double strength would work with this. Everything I've tried using it in has come out fine. Deb--Good idea--pie dough cut into a leaf or pumpkin shape would look very nice.
  19. Hi, I don't know--I've heard that about 1/4 of the time, indigestion is felt as nausea and not heartburn/reflux. Maybe you're not digesting it well? Have you tried eating it at home, prepared with no seasonings except salt? I ate no red meat, and chicken only a few times a week for years. For the last couple of years now, since I became severly...
  20. Laura, Best of luck tomorrow, saying a little prayer tonight that everything goes well for you! Love and hugs
  21. Hi Mary, and welcome! Glad you decided to post Yep--these are the things that excite us around here
  22. First of all, congratulations on getting the job--it sounds great!! Believe me, I understand completely about the running to the bathroom when nervous! There are a couple of things I do when I need to be somewhere. First, I stick to something for breakfast that I know will sit right--in my case, that's a banana. If there's something that you can...
  23. I've been painting the deck and working outside all day, but I wanted to say Hi and to thank everyone for the input on the tomatoes. Needless to say, that brand is off my list! The itching and burning is much better so all is good there. I've been considering getting the Enterolab gene test done--for 2 reasons. First, I'd like to know for my self...
  24. I agree with both of you ladies Not a bad place at all
  25. I've been in and out--painting the deck. I thought of cornmeal, but I was all the way outside when I did--thanks for posting it!
