Help
Before I was diagnosed in Dec. I was gaining wieght even when I would eat very little. I would have to exercise on the eliptical an hour a day and weightlift and eat very little just to stay the same wieght. I notice now that I am gluten-free that I am not as hungry and do not eat as much. I think my body does not think it is starving anymore and my metabolism went back to normal?
HOWEVER, I started exercising 2 weeks ago and I have gained 5 pounds since I started. Do you think my body is not fully healed and exercising trips up my metabolism to think that I am starving again and then I am holding on to calories?
Also, I noticed that my hair started falling out again since I started exercising. I fell out before I was diagnosed and stopped after I stopped eating gluten.
I am so confused. I am eating the same amount as before I started exercising yet I am gaining weight.

I believe I had Celiac years before I was diagnosed. I have had many health problems, including arthritis in my knee, hair falling out, depression, bloating, IBS, anemia, osteoparosis, pre-term labor, two miscarraiges, and a son who died of Anencephaly (a neural tube deficit) at five days old....I wish I had known sooner.

Exercise would cause a weight gain if you are building muscle. It would not cause your hair to fall out.

dont know much but ill tell you what i do, the less you eat the more your motabolism slows down so you are gonna find it hard if your not eating enough. if your doing weights you will put on wieght as yor bulking up and muscle weighs more than fat. sorry i cant tell you morebut it may help if you speak to robb in sports and fitness, he knows his stuff.
married with 3 boys, maclain, dylan and finlay. symptoms for more than 10 years but only diagnosed may 06. lactose and casien intolerant may 06.
