Guest guest Posted June 9, 2000 Report Share Posted June 9, 2000 Amy, Welcome to the list, there are a lot of experienced parents here to help you out, so please don't think any question is too dumb or silly or whatever. You certainly have a lot on your plate and we are here to help you as we can. You will probably end up helping some of us too! I am not familiar with your son's chromosonal disorder, but I would think that if there are no known food problems (like PKU for example) then he should have no problems with the gfcf diet. It is replacing the gluten with other grains and the dairy with other foods. You may find some improvements in your son's immune system & hopefully he can grow out of his need to the constant antibiotics. Glad you joined up!

Guest guest Posted June 12, 2000 Report Share Posted June 12, 2000 Acidophilus should promote health, not sickness. What will make a child sick is having the digestive system " out of whack " because of antibiotics. Antibiotics are known to kill the flora (good bacteria) in the intestine and promote excess yeast growth (which is toxic). Hope this helps! Amy B. >Amy wrote: > > Nice to meet you.

The folks here are wonderful to help. We get quiet sometimes and we get busy sometimes, so if you ask something and don't get a response, it's usually because we've missed it so just ask it again. We won't fuss or bite if you ask again. Now, having a TSH of .0331 is not necessarily hyper, but you do need to have your antibodies tested. With your TSH bouncing around you may have Hashimoto's Thyroiditis. I don't have Hashi's, but and both do along with others, and they are very knowledgable and willing to share their knowledge. I can't convince my doc to test my antibodies either, but I don't believe I have Hashi's anyway, I believe I'm hypo from birth since I was severely premature. Oh well, I just snuck on before getting in the shower for work, so let me run. I didn't miss you by much last night though. I signed off the computer around 4:00 am EDT. Feel free to IM me or ask me to add you to my friends list, regardless of whether you see me online or not. I'm usually running invisible to avoid the trolls.

Guest guest Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 Hello All, I'm new to this forum. I've lost over 50 pounds during the last two years, mostly through exercise and watching it. However,I've come to a sort of standstill/crossroads. I'm slowly gaining the weight back. Probably because I've been resorting back to my old habits compiled with an inconsistent work schedule. (I work retail)I've tried the dieting route (WW) but it seems like I'm hungry all the time and the dieting mentality just makes me want to eat more. So, I'm trying the IE way. I read a while ago that the only way weight will stay off is if it is ONE'S OWN WAY of eating. It has to come from within, not externally. Anyway, just curious of how many of you on this board have lost and kept weight using this technique. Thanks! method Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 16, 2008 Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 Welcome You do matter as do we all! It matters to me that you are here and working towards our common goal of returning eating to a SANE aspect in our lives. I think you will find that you are not alone and this is a safe place for you to start you IE journey. Looking forward to reading more posts from you too Katcha > > Hello everyone, > I joined the group a few days ago and now that my taxes are finally done, I > have time to introduce myself.
