I was going to the store today and I was drinking a "Just Black Cherry" Juice :) As I glanced down to grab the juice from between my legs, I mean Drink carrier  <_< my thought is "It's gone" Not my juice :P but my big belly is gone!! I know I have lost 30 lbs. But I actually am starting to look normal now  :D  I just didn't realize it was all gluten in  that belly. Being Bloated , full of gas and swollen. I am now wearing shirts I have not worn in 5 years (Yes I kept them) I am giving away my 2xl's and wearing Lg ... It is amazing!! :) Too bad my energy doesn't match my body ? W8 did that make sense?  B)

I think it is to :) Well I have been trying to go for walks at least every other day. It is hard right now with Ragweed everywhere (me and my allergies) And we live out between two big fields , that are planted in soybeans but the edges are full of Ragweed.. I walk down the lane and both sides ....ragweed.... So I have to do it on a clear day. I havn't been this size in a while. If I can lose a few more I will be happy :) I am kida scared .... I was skinny my whole life. I mean too skinny! everyone thought I had an eating disorder. I didn't and don't, but with the way I am losing weight. I hope i don't lose too much. If so I guess I up the rice huh? 

       Thanks!!

      That's interesting - that's a lot of gluten! I'll be very curious to see how my son responds to the gluten. In some ways, I guess having a strong reaction would tell us something? It's tough navigating this as a parent and having it be not so clear cut ;\

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @JamieAnn!  Glad you had a good experience at your local Jersey Mike's.  In the town I live in all we have is Subway and they stopped offering gluten free buns. So, I can't eat there anymore. Oh, more recently there has come to our town a Firehouse sub shop and, according to the Internet, they offer gluten free buns but I haven't tried them yet. For super sensitive celiacs, cross-contamination in handling at these sub shops may also be a problem.

      Today, in Uniontown, PA,  I ordered Jersey Mike’s Italian sub on gluten-free bread (paid extra for gluten-free) for my brother who hasn’t had a sub in yrs (neorological prob if consumes). He’s so happy! Their gluten-free bread is from a company that specializes in gluten-free products, some of which I’ve enjoyed before, so figured a sub would be good!

      Most recent gluten challenge guidelines call for the consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in about 4-6 slices of wheat-based bread) for at least 2 weeks.  When celiacs have been on gluten free diets for long periods of time, they often find that when they consume a good amount of gluten, they react much more strongly than they did before going gluten free. They have lost all tolerance to the poison they had when consuming wheat products regularly. That is certainly the case with me. A couple of years ago I accidentally consumed a wheat biscuit my wife had made thinking it was a gluten free one and it made me violently ill. So, I mention that as I don't know if your son has started the gluten challenge yet.
