I was reading in Dangerous Grains last night and it talked about a typical shape of the face too. Big forhead and narrow chin. Triangle shaped face.
My stomach is on the bigger/swollen side, but I have a round rear end and never had the foot padding thingy I don't think.
My grandma (who had LOTS and LOTS of stomach problems during her life and eventually died from them) kinda looked like that though. BIG stomach, no butt.

Hmm. Ty definitely has a triangle shaped face. There's a guy at work who always kids around about his "alien" head. He still has a bit of a belly and not too much bum. He doesn't have a problem walking around barefoot, he never complains, but he did get orthotics for his shoes last fall, his feet are pronated. I think that's the word. He walks on the inside edge of his feet.
Linda, Mom to Ty (11 years old)
Ty was diagnosed by blood test June 7/05
biopsy Aug 11/05, diagnosis confirmed Aug 18/05
Mom, Dad and big brother Celiac-free.

Deb, have you ever tried boxer briefs for your hubby? They always seem to have bigger waist's and slimmer butt and legs.
ahhhh,yes I know but for him the boxer style doesn't give enough support for his "manlies."
Husband has Celiac Disease and
Husband misdiagnosed for 27 yrs -
The misdiagnosis was: IBS or colitis
Mis-diagnosed from 1977 to 2003 by various gastros including one of the largest,
most prestigious medical groups in northern NJ which constantly advertises themselves as
being the "best." This GI told him it was "all in his head."
Serious Depressive state ensued
Finally Diagnosed with celiac disease in 2003
Other food sensitivities: almost all fruits, vegetables, spices, eggs, nuts, yeast, fried foods, roughage, soy.
Needs to gain back at least 25 lbs. of the 40 lbs pounds he lost - lost a great amout of body fat and muscle
Developed neuropathy in 2005
Now has lymphadema 2006It is my opinion that his subsequent disorders could have been avoided had he been diagnosed sooner by any of the dozen or so doctors he saw between 1977 to 2003

I don't seem to fit the body shape or the face shape! I also work on my feet and have rarely had any prolems. I'll give half a butt to anyone
Although,now that I think about it my grandmother (through whom we have tracked the celiac gene) did have that body shape. She would never have complained about herself so we will never know if she had symptoms.
diagnosed 1/04 endoscopy; gluten-free ever since!

I was just thinking about all this and I DID look like that when I first got sick....no butt, no padding on the feet, but after 2 years I got the butt back. The feet could use some padding BUT I can never figure out what shape my face is. I think it's oval

I haven't. My feet are still painfully bony. Though, I'm not sure I've done nearly as much walking lately. I'll have to see how my feet do at Disney. Maybe they have gotten better and i just don't know it.
