And I PERFORM in musicals when I have free time...

JESS! Superb! You must be in our band, The Badass Snow Poodles, and join us on our float in the NY parade. You must be quite a singer if you're managing in musicals, so we could head up the vocals. By musicals, do you mean what I hope you mean? Like, great ol' showtunes (think Showboat, Fiddler on the Roof, Porgy and Bess)? Or something more...modern...and completely foreign to me? What key do you sing in most comfortably? Can you manage to keep strong notes in a moving vehicle with guns projecting gluten-free treats? ....Geez, I'd better get practicing....

well, the old classicals, as mentioned. I plan on trying out for Oliver! this summer, but I only have time to be a bar wench.

I also sing in our local choral; Handel, Dvorak, that type of stuff so if you need a shot of class while shooting goodies, I'm up for it. Not sure about key. I sing alto, and when I'm in practice I have a solid 2-2 1/2 octave range. I'm a little rusty now so I'll need some practice time.

Is the yeti up for catching treats shot off a moving float? Maybe we could add target practice the the vocal practices.

Nikki, you were asking what Target was, or Tar-jay???? I just learned something last night, from the Spice Girls of all people, that your Tesco stores are the equivalent to our Targets.

Which reminds me - AMANDA - yes my avatar is the spice girls

Gosh - think Julie's a BIG EWAN fan :lol:...but it IS good *sniff*

Yes SUSAN must be missing a gene or something..........

So there you go Nikki, when others are giddy about Target you can think Tesco and share in the giddy-ness :lol::lol:

The Spice Girls are making a Tesco commercial, hence how I learned what a Tesco was :lol:

Mel B is on DWTS, she's doing quite well. I think she might even win it.

Gosh - think Julie's a BIG EWAN fan :lol:

I actually am a fan of Ewan's :ph34r: I LOVE him in Moulin Rouge especially, but also Big Fish, and A Life Less Ordinary

:lol:

My best friend and I were very bored one day and we watched SpiceWorld since my littlest sister loved the Spice Girls. We actually enjoyed the movie and watched it a few times after :ph34r:

Yes--she's very good. My prediction is that either she or Helio (the racecar driver) will win. Don't quote me on that, though :lol:

Not sad at all--I feel the same way about Monday (and Tuesday :ph34r: ) nights. That show is addicting.

Does your version have any stars we might know of?

Me too :ph34r:

I'll say it :lol: , I think she is going to win! She was very good last night and stepped it up a HUGE notch.

I think Marie might go tonight, and it might be tough for Jennie Garth to catch up.

jerseyangel Proficient
Me too :ph34r:

Good! :lol: I'm glad I'm not the only one.

She might well win. I think Jenny will go tonight....

nikki-uk Enthusiast

Got you ladies talking :lol:

Not really. You may have heard of Rod Stewarts wife (Penny Lancaster) ...oh and Stephanie Beecham...but they are both out!! :lol:

Nikki, I must say that when we were in London I ventured into a Tesco's to get some food staples and it was mahhhhvelus. Better than the quickie stop shops we've got here. But two of the three times I stopped in at the big one near Trafalgar Square, at around three in the afternoon, there were several inebriated souls staggering down the aisles. We were amazed...how on earth do they make it to the end of the day? (Perhaps there was absinthe involved. Then I can understand and sympathize completely)... :lol:

um, ahem, I think Ewan is just fine, thank you. ;) don't LURVE him, did like him quite a bit in Big Fish (LOVE that movie!), but, ANY TIME there is a movie in which people just BURST into song as part of the plot.......and it continues to happen, again and again, and there is DANCING involved also..................consider me gone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have walked out of many musicals......learned my lesson........just so bored I could SCREAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :o Only good ones: Wizard of Oz and Sound of Music (childhood) and Grease, later childhood. :lol:

Is there something wrong with me? I'm quite musical.......and yet.......

You're certainly not alone on this. I, too, couldn't watch either movie. Not even the one w/ Nicole Kidman! :wub::lol:

And I PERFORM in musicals when I have free time...

:) yay! :)

<always a fan of ppl doing music>

And . .. . .uhhhh .. . .. ..ya I LOVE musicals!! Yeah! THAT's the ticket! My 1st love in fact! . ..yeah . .. .yeah Nothing entertains me more!!

:)

OK, seriously, there ARE a lot of great old songs from musicals.

"Summertiiiiiiiiiiiime . . . ..when the livin' is eeeeeeeeeeee-zeeeeeeeeeeeee . . .. ."

it DOES take up quite a bit of time, doesn't it???????????????

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

:lol: hehehhehhehehehhe :lol: <chucklechuckle>

(Oh jeez - it's quoting THESE types of Dingopost's that get me in trouble w/ the emoti-counter)

I need to run to Tar-jay tonight, anyone want to join?

Count me in!!

Ehhhhhhh .. .. .hmmmm I better just go to the one about a 2 min drive from here. :P

Same center as T-Joe's!! :o:D

. . . Smells of wee :lol: She does look like she could use a good scrubbing ;)

Reminds me of a great old Elton John song off Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. "Dirty Little Girl" - as good as the singles. I think the sexual content kept it off the airwaves. Or was that "All the young girls love Alice" ?

[Edit] P.S. Aaaaaarrrrrrgh!!! It DID nail me for overemoticonizing!!!!!!!

Wish it gave a count. :(

Some mod oughta get that into a 'future features' list!

Loved Big Fish!

Ewan is uber hot, I'd watch him in a WESTERN! (gag) :lol:

I do love musicals. But I can't watch Moulin Rouge over and over, because it's just too depressing. It was really good, though. Love, love, love Chicago!

I guess she lucked into a very understanding household then.

And I PERFORM in musicals when I have free time...

Performing in them would be FUN- sitting through them is another thing. I had to be restrained physically to watch the Sound of Music when I was 18. OK- I kinda liked it :lol:

I just got back from Tar-jay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Excellent adventure!

OK- I sent out one of those "Getting to Know you" emails (if you didn't get it, it's only because I don't have your email so PM it to me!) but my favorite question was "What is your favorite saying?" I think everyone should post ther favorite saying here.

My friend Vicky's was F*&k Nut!

Mine is "How about a nice, tall glass of shut the He*l up?"

Patti's is so funny- you must post it Patti!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I like Ewan but I LOVE Colin (firth).

      I'm a little confused. In your second post you said, "but these symptoms have been ongoing for a long time before the pregnancy" while in your most recent post you say, "I was doing a lot better on the AIP diet. However, I was unable to do the full reintroduction process because I went off the AIP diet when I got pregnant and was experiences chronic nausea." CBC = Complete Blood Count. This is the typical bloodwork most people would have done routinely with an annual wellness checkup. I would include things like iron levels, various blood cell counts including reds and whites and other infection fighters. CMP = Complete Metabolic Panel. This would measure things like blood sugar, kidney and liver function, plasma proteins and various enzymes. Non cellular things that the body produces. Also typical of an annual wellness check. Have you tried cutting out dairy and oats? These two are the most common cross reactors in the celiac community. I know it must be tough trying to get adequate calories and nutrition when you are pregnant while at the same time eliminating foods that are good sources of those things.

      They did. I was doing a lot better on the AIP diet. However, I was unable to do the full reintroduction process because I went off the AIP diet when I got pregnant and was experiences chronic nausea. This is what makes me believe it's food related.  I do check all of my food products and supplements and I am very careful about them being gluten free and trying to stay away from corn starch etc. However, I am eating gluten free breads that sometimes have rice flour, yeast, etc. - I seem to do fine with these breads/bread products some days, but then am sick other days.  I have never really had any GI symptoms outside of bloating. My symptoms are dizziness, brain fog, and a general feeling of unwellness or malaise, sort of like when you're going to get the flu.  I have had a lot of bloodwork done over the last three years, but I don't recall doing the CBC, CMP, or a celiac-specific test recently. That's helpful so that could at least provide some insight to see if I'm still being exposed.  Do you see most individual with celiacs having to take a period of time away from even gluten free breads and other cross-reactive foods to let their guts heal? I'm not sure how restrictive to get with my diet again since it's so challenging. 
    • trents
      Did the symptoms commence after you discontinued the AIP diet? Have you checked all nutritional supplements and oral hygiene products for possible gluten content? Have you recently checked all the labels of purchased processed foods in your pantry to check for formulation changes that might have introduced gluten? Historically, when "glutened" did you have GI symptoms or were you a "silent" celiac whose symptoms were non GI. Is what you are experiencing now like what you were experiencing at the time of diagnosis? Have you had recent blood work done (CBC and CMP) and if so, were there any parameters out of norm? I know you have Hashimoto's but you say that is well controlled now? It certainly wouldn't hurt to get celiac antibodies rechecked. Because you are essentially gluten free I would not expect to see any big departures from normal levels but if there are even weak positives it could indicate you are getting glutened from some unexpected source.
    • Maura Gissen
      Hi Trent! Thanks so much for your warm welcome and questions! They do, but these symptoms have been ongoing for a long time before the pregnancy. However, it's hard for me to know what's a celiac response vs. a Hashimotos one. I haven't, maybe it's worth getting those checked again? 
    • trents
      Welcome to the forum, @Maura Gissen! Don't those same symptoms often come along with the territory when pregnant? And then throw in Hashimoto's.  Have you had your celiac antibody levels checked recently?
