  1. odd..Wild Oats is a division of Whole Foods... I found a place in Cottonwood, AZ called Mount Hope, they have a pretty good selection of gluten-free items. In fact, a lady saw me with my basket of gluten-free stuff & pointed out wheat free items, I explained the difference & asked about Glutino's bagels...the nect week they had 2 choices along...
  2. YAY! I was just wondering about this today in the store!
  3. I LOVE THEM! I use the Life Volumizing set & my hair is really long & fine, using almost anything else makes my hair come out in handfuls! Worth the money but I do notice I have to actually Rinse & Repeat. Just tried the Caviar Reconstructing one & my hair feels sooooo nice!
  4. if you aren't getting any blood, drink at least 2 glasses of water. Same if you do get blood but it dries immediately. I worked for a company that does cancer research and would often give blood for the lab. Same thing they wouldn't get anything and then would make me drink 2 glasses of H2O & then everyting was fine.
  5. you guys are the best! We're each going to have our own cabin so I can cook once I get there. Big soutern kinda family so I don't wanna step on toes being a yankee & all. (sorry, that still cracks me up) Great suggestions & happygirl, I think I'll print out your notes.
  6. oh yeah! For years I ate because I HAD to. Then they figured out why I ws sick all the time & I was afraid of food...for a loooong time. It was easier to just not eat through it all. BUt as I got better at knowing what I could & couldn't eat...and especially now that I've finally learned to cook some, well I always knew how but hated it! it's much...
  7. I started feeling better after about 3 days. Could stand upright again & even lifted a full bag of sugar! Probably a few months to get used to feeling healthy. For the longest time I didn't realize I was hungry, just thought I was sick again...
  8. I emailed Alterna earilier in the week, this is what htey sent back ALTERNA PRODUCT CONTAINS GLUTEN/GLUTEN-FREE CAVIAR MOISTURE SHAMPOO Contains Gluten CAVIAR MOISTURE CONDITIONER Gluten Free CAVIAR VOLUME SHAMPOO Gluten Free CAVIAR VOLUME CONDITIONER Gluten Free CAVIAR TREATMENT CONDITIONER Gluten Free...
  9. ok so I have a long distance thing going. He wanted me to meet the family on Thanksgiving. I have no problem with that part. When we were talking arrangements I told him the only issue is the food thing. I certainly don't want to upset his mom but I also don't want to have to constantly exlain why. He's not very good at this yet, mostly because he doesn't...
  10. if you can tolerate it, eat a yogurt with each anti-biotich. Helps coat the stomach & prevents the yeast infections that can pop up.
  11. but is frequent urination, freezing hands and feet part of Celiac? can it be? I had the same thing for years!!! every 20 minutes or so I'd have to urinate. My hands & feet were always super cold & tingly. You HAVE to get out of the pizza place!! It's a health risk at this point. Definitly go to Mexico, I went for 2 weeks last year &...
  12. LOVE Mac Studio FIx powder, goes right on & after a few minutes you look like you have perfect skin, with or without a concealer
  13. oh sorry that was definitely not as clear as I thought...graveyard shift, I get kinda punchy I have a friend who has very similar "issues" after eating mozzarella. She does fine with goat cheeses, Muenster, Montery Jack so I can't figure it. Oh I thin Brie does it to her too.
  14. Such good stories, we need to post that stuff regularly...makes me smile big. I do miss my old job for that kind of thing...worked with mosly R&D scientists and they still send me articles about advancements in food allergies. We did a birthday cake once a month for that month and suddenly I wasn't showing up for the social bit...when people started...
  15. is it possible you could ship some non perishables to the hotel you'l be staying at? I've done that for extended business trips
  16. herbal teas & room temp water will help you feel fuller longer as well. I eat eggs alot lately, I make a scrambled with peppers & onions, salt, pepper & thyme and then put a little cheese & make a quesadilla out of it woth corn tortillas. Sometimes I just put salsa in instead of the other stuff & it ends up filling me up for a good while...
  17. well this'll be my 2nd holiday season gluten-free and my 1st away from my entire family! MWHAHAHAHA!! I have no idea what I'm doing but I'll be making myself something yummy. maybe I'll just eat ice cream & drink booze all day in front of the fire. Last year my Mom actually made me my own everything and made sure I got to me food 1st as people were...
  18. MAC is really good about that! I use everything MAC & never have a problem. The girl at the counter actually caught me about to make a bad mascara purchase & saved me there. I notice any mascara that's thickening or lengthing has wheat in it...no wonder my eyes were so itchy all the time! LOL! Mary Kay is also great about listing ingredients...
  19. Can anyone tell me what there is in or about mozzarella that can cause similar reactions to getting glutened?
  20. I also use the peanut allergy & dairy issues to get my point across. Who ever thought they couuldn;t have milk??? I have an overweight sister that pops lactaid pills constantly & has done so for years! She won't even look at going gluten-free for 2 weeks to see if she felt better. She actually told me she called the company that makes them &...
  21. I figured I'd stay away while the harvest goes on, we were worried about cc with laundry/hugs etc. Also because when the wheat is still growing he has to go dove hunting in the same field. We were concerned about me even going out with him for that. I'm thinking hay is grass yes?
  22. LOL! Oh yeah the 1st time I used them was awful! But I got better at adding stuff in, herbs & spices for meats & cinnamin & sugars for topping baked fruit. Oh yeah & turning the heat down too! Also, those were the only ones I could find...
  23. Even after reading here that I could have them, AND reading the label I still felt horrible after eating a regular size one. I think there's something with artifical Flavoring that I can't have, dunno what but I just avoid it now. Easier that way
  24. BRILLIANT! My BIL questioned me about this as his family had a dairy farm & my BF's family has a cattle farm. Here's a daft question, if BF is out plowing hay and/or wheat what precautions do I have to take. Obviously with the wheat field he can't come near me until he changes & Showers but can I even be in that field? And what is hay anyway...
  25. Turtle, You are not alone, this is a common theme for bridesmaids etc. But I have worked with & for catering services & restaurants & have discovered that if I discuss my needs with the chef of each, they ALWAY find me something to have. In fact, I just had a wedding guest call me 3 days before the wedding who is Celiac & we had no problem...
