  1. Please come cater my baby shower?? hahah That is just great! I would love to be able to feel 100% safe and trust no one else but another person who must be gluten-free, to do it.
  2. I am now taking protein powder but I am pregnant. My nails started to peel and break like crazy and the only thing I can think of is that I am not properly absorbing enough protein. I am using Syntrax. I have the Vanilla Torte and the Strawberry Mousse. THEY ARE FANTASTIC! Very very un protein powder tasting. Great price ($30 for a big tub) online too...
  3. YAY! I have some energy this evening. Well.. that is something. Been coming home..removing shoes.. eating food and going to bed. SO is complaining a little because I am out cold in about 90 seconds LOL I am glad I am not having cravings for things that are not exactly healthy. I WILL SHARE THAT GARLIC OH YEAH!!! Mouhahahhaha Prego spaghetto sauce...
  4. You may not know it... But I come here every single day and read posts. Its like you are all my secret rock. Even in the midst of pregnancy, it is better for me here because you all understand. Youre so giving and helpful with your advice and opinions. I could probably do all of this on my own but being here has reduced my stress, worry and anxiety SO MUCH...
  5. I have been browsing the baby forum boards and reading the posts they have about their cravings. I do not even belong to my species! hahah I see all of this fast food, and junk food, and processed food they are dying to eat and salivating over. Its just not polite to mention it there so I won't. Me though? I am craving crunchy Kale salads, and blueberries...
  6. Oh yes.. I was buying it in Hawaii! I cannot seem to find it around here despite being able to find so MANY other gluten free things.
  7. Tonight (or tomorrow really but I have to prep tonight so I can manage) I am making Gyro salad. Heavy on the meat AND veggies... and a side of Tzatziki dressing.
  8. YAY!!! I am trying to be positive too. Hmm.. I wonder if you would be able to order those vitamins online (Yes I am in the USA...and I ordered them online too). The part I wonder is if they would SHIP to SA. I know they have an online live chat help thing you can ask them on it? I was just looking at December birth announcement ideas. TOO CUTE! I do...
  9. I am about 6 weeks right now too. I am still having problems with my vitamin levels too! I am SO WORRIED I will miscarry. Ive been gluten-free and Grain free for almost 2 years now. I am going to talk to my doctor at my first visit in a couple of weeks about taking some vitamins from a company called Bariatric Avantage. They have a whole prenatal vitamin...
  10. Well it may be that the only way you know cross contamination in your own kitchen has happened is a blood test. It has made my life a bajillion % more wonderful that my whole family went gluten free (inside our home) and the worry of CC is now gone. Its such a safety relief. They still eat gluten, just when the are out and about, now. The recovery... feeling...
  11. YAY!!! That is pretty great news! Its really quite a task to get all the various blood levels to a proper type of place. YOU DID IT! :D It is spring..if you want to lose a few, just promise yourself a nice after dinner walk with the SO ??? Nothing strenuous... but it will do wonders!
  12. Yeah, I think I need to give the recipe directions for the crock pot.... yeah... There is no morning energy hahah nor any at night. geezz I hope this passes soon. The SO works and goes to school, and so does the teen.... but.. I need their help right now! DEsperation is the key *nods* yep yep
  13. Thank you! Yeah, there is no "permit" going on. There is only.. OMG! I CANNOT LIFT MY FEET UP TO WALK! I wake up, go to work... somehow survive the day and then I walk in the door and it is all over. Thankfully, my teenager cleaned the house while I was gone yesterday. I hugged her so much and I even cried a little. I was dreading coming home to the...
  14. Yep, it is a symptom. I thought for the longest time it was not but... if it goes IN me...and comes right back OUT of me. Within 30 minutes to an hour at most. I will never actually KNOW if I have Celiacs or not because of this. There is no possible way to have my blood tested because it does not even stay down. It COULD be a very very rare wheat allergy...
  15. The crock pot requires morning energy. I have zero. I am talking walking zombie haha ..its almost comical. They are "grown adults" for all intents and purposes and I trust they will not let themselves starve. They know all the kitchen rules about gluten and grains so I am not worried if they cook for me. I will have to let them get desperate first though...
  16. Yeah... We have no such thing around here. I cannot even find GF soy sauce at whole foods, never mind GF teriyaki sauce. I have, surprisingly found GF ABC french fries haha!!! I have Beaver brand gourmet ketchup (corn free!) to dip it all in OH Yeahhhhh
  17. Yep.. I am 5 weeks (that means the fetus is 3 weeks, i think). I am already insanely tired. I was never this tired with my daughter. Its like my soul is being sucked out kind of tired. Maybe it is because I am almost 39. I have already started with the sickness too :S Just lunchtime (during work! GAH) So I have some ginger mints to nibble on discreetly...
  18. Just made this last week and cooked our teriyaki chicken in it (and marinated in it too) Makes roughly 2 Classico Jars ( I save glass jars and reuse them) full of yummy yummy time sauce! 1 cup coconut aminos (or gluten-free soy sauce if you can find it, but I cannot!) 1 cup honey 1/2 cup juice from fresh oranges (or same amount of...
  19. Well.. My little schedule went by the wayside last week with the new job training and 2 hour commute each way... plus the SURPRISE "i'm Prego!~" news... and so it begins! TONIGHT we will have The Teriyaki Chicken and Warm Ginger Carrot Slaw I, thankfully, made the teriyaki sauce from coconut aminos last week and it has been happily chilling away...
  20. Awww, thank you all for the real heartfelts! I hope it is the easiest of easiest! With my first and only (so far), 18 years ago, I was REALLY sick...and I knew I was prego from probably the 1st week. This time, I still do not even FEEL pregnant.... except for all of the sudden I have to pee a lot LOL I cried too... I still am. I am basically awed...
  21. Thank you thank you thank you!!!! I was nto really expecting it to happen all quickly like... if at all... I do not even know exactly what to do now! Make an appointment with an ob/gyn I guess!
  22. and.. I just had a positive test!
  23. I was so worried I was too old ( i will turn 39 in 2 weeks) or that I was so damaged from all of these problems. I am 6 days late..and it only took about 15 seconds for that result with a middle of the day ..sample.. haha TADAA!!!!
  24. WOOOO My two favs (marzipan and prailene) are GF! ... standard disclaimer but.. straight from Rittersport:
  25. OH NOES! I do not know!... I havent eaten any yet. But I cannot read the German on the back. May depend on the kind? The cookies and cream will probably be out... but hopefully the dark chocolate/marzipan one is alright! TY for the heads up!
