Weight Loss Mystery/don't Live By A Grain Silo!

I am going down weight loss mountain the past few months. Things are (as usual) too complicated for me to really know why. My own guess ( just now) is that I finally got the last big allergen out of my diet. . I had previously avoided all sweets except for tiny amounts of honey. Honey was something I had not considered for possible allergies, and finally realized it was the only thing left that I had had often when sick. When I pulled honey out, my weight started dropping. My other theories of this weight loss include dropping hormone levels and an unintentional gluten intake from dust in the air around a silo. Possibly my recent colonoscopy cleaned out my system.

My weight has been stable at 159 since going gluten free. Seven years back after beginning an aggressive supplement program I came down from 190lbs. Since I am 5'7" I thought 159 good enough. Still another theory about the weight loss, I don't wish to think about, so I won't mention it! I felt better and better before my recent glutening, so I take it, that this weight loss isn't indicating anything life shattering. But am glad my eternity is settled just incase.

 

In the meantime, some advice especially for super-sensitives and people with allergies, don't pick your next house within 10 miles of a silo, flour mill, or bakery!

 

No Need to warn me to see my doctor. I had a complete exam at Fairview late this summer and all seemed well. I have 3 different other health practitioners going over this with me.

 

I hope all the same (in weight loss) to nvsmom, and anyone else struggling with weight. I am hoping you all don't have to cut out all your sweets, or that you can just enjoy whatever foods you can eat. Meanwhile, I think I will go enjoy some coconut milk and banana.

have you ever tried buckwheat honey. I think its awesome and I don't swell from it like I do other honeys. theres also a hot cereal made from buckwheat and milled with flaxseed but it is not a wheat and is gluten free

Thanks for the idea. I missed it til now. I eat small amounts of honey again as I have been treated for allergies to it. We have our own bees and are planting buckwheat. The bees will really like it. We had buckwheat before and the field just buzzed with bees. I use to enjoy buckwheat a lot, but I ate that with leaky gut and have not been treated for allergies to it yet.
