    My husband is like Richard and Vincent in regard to not being embarassed to buy certain personal products. Actually, if the cashier is a guy, I get kinda embarassed. Susan--I decided against any highlighting in light of the straightening. You're right--don't want to damage the mane. Not too much, anyway

    Hi Lauren I'm super sensitive so if the label says either 'made on the same equipment' or 'may contain traces of..' I won't go near it. There are a very few processed things that I'll eat--the only way to see if there will be a reaction to those is to try. For me (and this may not be true for others), most of the time I end up reacting.

    Hi Taffy, My hair was falling out in the year and a half before I was diagnosed. I actually had spots where you could see my scalp. I was also severly anemic, which is common in people with Celiac. I took suppliments, but because I wasn't absorbing correctly, they didn't do much good. When I had been gluten-free for about 4 months, my hair...

    My hair is actually in very good condition now--that's why I even considered it. She said I'll only need touch-ups about every 4 months or so and those will only be on the new growth--the rest of the hair will only have been processed once. It's also very important to not let the solution touch the scalp itself. I like your hair both ways--it's nice...

    I can get away with rice--but not more than about once or twice a month. Any more often, and it starts to bother me. I wish I could eat eggs--but they make me terribly nauseous. I usually just eat meat, fruit, veggies, almonds and potatoes. Oh, and some dark chocolate Writing it down makes it seem very restrictive, but in reality, I manage to...

    Yes, permanently straightened. Today, she blew it out and used the ceramic iron--the difference will be that the humidity won't affect it--once I blow it dry, it will stay smooth until I wash it again.

    I react to all the lectins, too--except potatoes, thankfully. I really have no idea how long it will be before I can eat any of them again. (or if) Some cause more severe reaction than others, some immediate, some delayed. That's why it's so hard to figure it all out. I plan to go at least a year at my present diet. I know my sensitivites are due to...

    I'm back from the new salon. I LOVE it there The woman who did my hair is (get this) named Patti AND has naturally curly hair! And did my hair in a private room I told her I was wanting to grow it out a little, and she shaped it really well. I did end up having the back cut so it would grow out more evenly. Anyway, her hair was shoulder-length...

    Congratulations!! What wonderful news Nausea is perfectly normal--and the pattern is very much individual. Every pregnancy is different. I had constant nausea with my first that lasted almost the whole 9 months (and it didn't help that he was 3 weeks late!). With the second, I had it for 12 weeks, and then it went away overnight. I'm glad...

    Yes Deb--I think it's a lovely thought. I live in the area, so I saw the information on the news this morning. The costs will be staggering ....

    Andrea and Vincent--stop it right now You both very much belong--these little gatherings wouldn't be the same without you two! How bout me??? I always feel like the ancient one

    Did you try a search here? I'm almost positive that I saw a post on them a while back.

    You'll have to let me know your "ice cream" recipe! We have just about the same exact intolerances, so I'm curious I look forward to seeing your kitties--mine is laying on the floor next to me right now. Ursula, your son looks like you! They are a nice looking couple A "DA" is a hairstyle from the 50's.

    Another question--how do you measure the almonds?
  16. jerseyangel
    I'm setting the Tivo because I'll probably forget....

    Ooh Armetta--I can't wait to see it! Have a nice lunch on Saturday!
  21. jerseyangel
    Yep--very wise!

    They use to sell it on late-night informercials back, I think, in the 80's. It's a hair clipper that you attach to your vaccum cleaner--no kidding
  23. jerseyangel
    Aw--that's so sweet! Flo-bee--I can't believe someone else remembers that!

    Well, you have to be comfortable with your choice. Probably the best thing to do would be to find a good salon/stylist. Maybe ask around. Then go in and discuss with him/her what you have in mind. A good stylist will make suggestions, but ultimately do what you want.

    That's right--hate them! I still say that you (Vincent, not Carla ) should go short. It's 2006--and you won't believe how easy and quick it will be in the mornings!
