  • Wow, thanks for all the advice everyone! I appreciate all the comments. My worry is that I just know myself...I know there's other ways to get this accomplished for far cheaper. I've googled stuff, had my husband help me with things I can do at home, etc...I just never keep it up. Once the initial excitement wears off I…
  • Pot meet kettle.
  • Yes, someone said exactly that in this thread. This is what I was responding to. Should have quoted it in my last post.
  • I'm soooo sick of people saying eating gluten free is a fad. My daughter is a celiac and gets very ill if she eats gluten. It's hereditary as well and I'm pretty sure I have it as well because going off gluten cleared up the ibs I've suffered with my entire life. Celiac disease was first diagnosed in the 1800's.

  • Oh absolutely. I am now prediabetic plus I've developed several autoimmune diseases. I know my crappy diet contributed to both which is why I am so careful with my daughter's diet now...she is gluten intolerant and when we found out it really made us take a hard look at our diet and its link to disease and health.

As in, I would eat a breakfast of a couple mcdonalds sausage and egg biscuits with soda, a large Whataburger with fries, again with soda, for lunch, and a whole dominos pizza for dinner, along…
  • Late to the game, I know, but I wanted to share my experience with knee pain whilst trying to take up running. On my 4th run and upon my first interval that run I experienced sharp pain under both kneecaps that cut that run short. I'd only been running a mile at most using intervals, and giving myself rest days in between…
  • Thought I'd provide an update in case this might end up helping anyone else...saw a doctor and I was told I have both runner's knee AND pes anserine bursitis. The pain has gotten so bad that I can barely walk at times but ibuprofen does help. I was told to continue icing, elevating and taking ibuprofen until the pain…
  • Thanks so much for the input everyone. I'm going to make an appointment to see a doctor then. And thanks for mentioning bursitis Gotolam...I looked that up and frankly my symptoms seem to match pes anserine bursitis to a tee. They say tight hamstrings are often the trigger for that and after doing a little self test I…
