Morgan -- I sympathize with the sweet tooth thing. I went crazy when I discovered gluten free ginger bread cookies.

Carla -- Sorry to hear you got sick on your trip. :( It's hard to enjoy yorself when you're not feeling well!

I have to clarify that is is not OUR restort in that we don't own it. We call it that since it was so small and intimate we felt we were there by ourselves. There were only abot 200 rooms, and the place was so out of the way...adutls only to boot. ;):D:D

Well, found out today that they WILL be able to provide for gluten free items in Greenland. YEAH!! :D

Work is calling, and I so do NOT want to be here today. Almost 30 degrees out ( 82 Farenheit ) and I am stuck inside in the dark. :blink:

Yay, the B girls are back, and in rare form at that :) Sorry you are still sick Carla, feel better soon. Morgan, I also understand Racheling the sugar. I just can't handle sugar well at all, when I eat it I want more of it, so I try to stay away from it as much as I can. I know, better said than done-- especially when you find something so yummy, it's hard to stop. But I feel so much better off of it, and when I do eat it from time to time I get sooo sick, so I know it is definitely a problem for me.

Andrea, thanks for sharing your horse collection with us. After seeing the movie Hidalgo I am a fan of the wild mustang.

Ryan, "your" resort sounds like a great place :lol::)

We can never forget Vincent :lol:

Ok I caught up, except for about 7 pages somewhere in the 30's, but I think I'll just miss those forever.

OK..put up the first pic...me and my lavander dress at my Moms wedding. You cant see my shoes though...they got cut off. I will try to make the pic more clear later.

How do I write something under my pic??

Rachel, you look so pretty :) you look like an angel

I missed it. Have to share the computer with Mitch and I'm missing out on the fun.

Dave,

Very pretty. Aaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwwww.

They are adorable!

I missed it too :( It took me a little while to figure out why everyone was upset about the dogs, but I soon figured out they were actually upset about the picture of Rachel :lol::lol::lol:

I'm quoting myself! :lol: Not only do I have to STOP going to bed at 8:00, I may have to quite premature posting...after this I noticed the discussion on how TheDave stole Rachel's picture...um, the only picture I saw were the cute puppies...so Rachel, I wasn't talking about you when I wrote this comment.

exactly :P

Momma Goose is STRESSED. We have decided to down size and sell our house. We have found another that we like every much but it is much smaller, likewise price. But it's like putting 10 lbs of spinach into a 5lbs bag.... :blink::blink: And my GERD is acting up like hell fire. Meeting with a Realitor tomorrow to see if others think our home is as valuable as we do

If it wasn't so hard to get off Lexipro, I'd wish for it back.

Sorry Susan, if I appeared snippy. I was in so much discomfort that it was hard to breath, much less laugh at everyone who could belch. Everyone was belching on line and I just needed just one to feel better.

Still belchless, Lisa

ok, I'm confused :huh: maybe I read too fast and missed something....when did the balching happen?

i just posted this in the gab room

I will only be checking this once a day at the most, i probably will not be posting at all.

I have 3 APs and 2 honors classes so i will be gone this entire school year.

i will check my e-mail and write back if people have questions.

O-man :o sounds like quite a year...we'll miss you

Everyone knew to stay clear of the boardroom from 12:45 to 1:00 p.m.!!!!!

:lol::lol: that would be useful information

Is it my imagination or does one have darker hair than the other? Just asking cause one of my twins is blond & the other brunet... yours look more alike than mine do though. I actually had people refuse to believe they were twins!

For a few years, people thought that two of my sisters were twins. They were two years apart and one had curly hair while the other had straight hair. One time someone asked if they were twins and they just looked at each other for a few seconds and then just cracked up laughing. They were laughing so hard that my brother and I had to explain there age difference. The lady that asked was so embarrassed :lol:

I have decided that tomorrow I will not have any sugar, except for the fruit that I eat for breakfast. I am telling everyone on here bc I figure the more people I tell, the more likely it will be that I'll follow through. I'll probably give updates as the day goes on to keep myself going <_<;)B) I just love sugar :wub: especially chocolate. Now I'm just looking for something to take it's place :angry: this is causing me to eat even more sugar than I did when I just ate the dang chocolate

This has happened for years ... one is 11, the other 13, and they've gotten this since they were really little. The 11 year old is a normal size for her age, the 13 (Chloe) is very petite and is the gluten intolerant one. If you just looked over my kids and I told you to guess which one had the gluten problem, Chloe is the one you'd guess just because of her size. What really irritates Chloe is when we're out at a restaurant and they bring her a kid's cup and her younger sister a regular one!

Now you know we are going to have to hold you to this....

I eat fruit to replace sugar. Also, once in a while, I will have some raw honey if I need to have something sweet, I'll mix a little in some almond butter.

One of my twins was MUCH smaller & thinner than the other & boy, did he get tired of hearing strangers say "Oh! You're TWINS!!?? I thought you were maybe two years younger than your brother!" (It's hard enough for a girl to be small for her age but there's more of a stigma for boys...)

Then in 9th grade he suddenly started growing a mile a minute, & a couple of years later, he was almost as tall as his bro. Meanwhile, the bigger twin was losing his baby fat as he grew, so now their bodies are much more alike than they ever were before. And the blond's hair darkened, the brunet's lightened slightly, so at age 19 they finally pass for twins!

Yea, she asked me to hold her to it ... I didn't even get out of bed till 2PM today, so I told her that she'd need to post it because she might have eaten all the sugar in the kitchen by the time I come downstairs!!

Not really, just moved downstairs. I thought I was getting over my virus, then went to my grandma's and must have gotten glutened. She tried really hard, so I kind of feel bad that I got glutened there ... but that had to be it. It got Morgan and Chloe, too, but they just get a little upset tummy with some d, then bounce back. Me, I'm usually down for about 8 days! I'm just sick of being sick :(

Morgan,

Morgan cooked some eggs and gluten-free English muffins for me for lunch. Then on her way home from the pool she stopped by Wild Oats, bought dinner, then came home and cooked it!! What am I going to do when she goes off to college Wed.???? :(:(:(:(:(

Morgan,

Why are you giving up chocolate? Did I forget? :unsure:

*a special note...the dairy free chocolate is not the same as dairy filled chocolate. I can notice a large difference. I still eat the dairy free chocolate...just a tiny bite after a meal. When I say chocolate, I mean M&M's, heaths, hershys, and whatever else is dairy filled

I'm going to go on a casein challenge, since I eat dairy every day two meals a day....I most likely have a problem with it. So I'm testing it. This is my fourth successful day :) After a few weeks, I'll pig out

HA! Cause she's a pig!!! :lol:

Umm, yeah I am....with chocolate :rolleyes:

Oh, what a sweetie! I know you'll miss her... & her cooking! At least you'll still be together on this forum, right?

      Hidden Gluten in distilled vinegar

      By Manaan2 · Posted

      Hi Trents-Thanks for reading and sharing insight.  We need all the help we can get and it's super appreciated.  She is currently dairy, soy and oat free and those have mostly been completely excluded from her diet since the diagnosis (we tried going back on dairy and oats at different times for a bit, didn't see a significant difference but have now cut out again just to be extra safe since her issues are so persistent.  We did cut eggs out for about 3 months and didn't notice significant difference there, either.  The only one we haven't specifically cut out completely for any portion of time is corn, however, we've kept it minimal in all of our diets for a long time.  She definitely goes 3-4 weeks without any corn products at times and still has issues, but I'm guessing that's not long enough to confirm that it isn't causing issues.   We could definitely try to go longer just to double check.  Thanks again!

      Potato Intolerance

      By Jordan23 · Posted

      Ok so know one knows about cross reactions from yeast,corn, potatoes, eggs, quinoa ,chocolate, milk, soy, and a few more I forgot.  There all gluten free but share a similar structure to gluten proteins. I use to be able to eat potatoes but now all of a sudden I was stumped and couldn't figure it out when I got shortness of breath like I was suffocating.  Then figured it out it was the potatoes.  They don't really taste good anyways. Get the white yams and cherry red 🍠 yams as a sub they taste way better. It's a cross reaction! Google foods that cross react with celiacs.  Not all of them you will cross react too. My reactions now unfortunately manifest in my chest and closes everything up . Life sucks then we die. Stay hopeful and look and see different companies that work for you . Lentils from kroger work for me raw in the bag and says nothing about gluten free but it works for me just rinse wellllll.....don't get discouraged and stay hopeful and don't pee off god

      Can I trust the gluten free label if a product was made in a facility that also processes gluten?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Doris Barnes! You do realize don't you that the "gluten free" label does not mean the same thing as "free of gluten"? According to FDA regulations, using the "gluten free" label simply means the product does not contain gluten in excess of 20 ppm. "Certified Gluten Free" is labeling deployed by an independent testing group known as GFCO which means the product does not contain gluten in excess of 10 ppm. Either concentration of gluten can still cause a reaction in folks who fall into the more sensitive spectrum of the celiac community. 20 ppm is safe for most celiacs. Without knowing how sensitive you are to small amounts of gluten, I cannot speak to whether or not the Hu Kitechen chocolates are safe for you. But it sounds like they have taken sufficient precautions at their factory to ensure that this product will be safe for the large majority of celiacs.

      Can I trust the gluten free label if a product was made in a facility that also processes gluten?

      By Doris Barnes · Posted

      Buying choclate, I recently boght a bar from Hu Kitchen (on your list of recommended candy. It says it is free of gluten. However on the same package in small print it says "please be aware that the product is produced using equipment that also processes nuts, soy, milk and wheat. Allergen cleans are made prior to production". So my question is can I trust that there is no cross contamination.  If the allergy clean is not done carefully it could cause gluten exposure. Does anyone know of a choclate brand that is made at a facility that does not also use wheat, a gluten free facility. Thank you.
