Men Are Stupid

I knew that title would get this read. lol.

 

I went a year gluten-free and felt so much better and then over the last two months blew it. I figured the best way to get back on track was to shame myself online.

 

I recently started Paleo because I am also allergic to dairy, which I have been eating as well.

 

It is so weird how your head is on right for a period of time, you see the results, and then something flips and you go stupid...or maybe I am the only one who does that.

Please don't discriminate an entire gender for your mistakes, it isn't men fault that you lost motivation and got off track, you could have easily called yourself stupid if you needed shame so badly.

I do find it puzzling how we can self-sabotage so easy even after seeing and experiencing the positives and not missing the things you no longer eat.

My husband's friend Chuck always told  his wife and me that women were MUCH smarter than men.

 

Think about it for a few minutes and then tell me who was smart.

 

 

I have never sabotaged myself (except in my dreams), but I think we have all had at least a whisper of temptation from time to time. Chalk it up to experience and get back on that horse.

yup, the title sure got my attention!! :lol:

 

Chad,

I know you are a lot smarter than this, and I also know you have a good sense of humor, so 

instead of my usual  mother-hennish "never, never, never cheat!"  lecture...I'm just going to say:

 

You are only stupid if you do it again. 

Pretty girl. Ask her is she thinks you're stupid.  :D if she says YES, then you are.

 

Seriously, don't be stupid anymore. Don't make me come over there, young man.

Take care, IH

It's only been a little over 3 weeks gluten free and I've been stupid lol. I'm not a man. I've grabbed a bite of my daughters mall pretzel (who can resist those) and she becomes the mother. My 13 yr old daughter is the one telling me "I told you so".

This is not easy we suddenly have to stop the foods we love. It's hard for me because I haven't been officially diagnosed. My GI doc believes I have it but tests were negative. So it's easy for me to cheat and say to myself well I may not even have celiac. But then after that bite and the suffering that comes after, I think my doc is right

I agree with Irish...very pretty girl...ask her if you are stupid.  I'd vote for you are too clever to be stupid...just need to hard wire that "I want gluten switch" to the off position -- just a little does hurt -- so stop it -- thanks for the clever thread :)

 

Yes I am. :blink:

 

thanks for the giggle :D

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By trents · Posted

      If you were off gluten for two months that would have been long enough to invalidate the celiac blood antibody testing. Many people make the same mistake. They experiment with the gluten free diet before seeking formal testing. Once you remove gluten from the diet the antibodies stop being produced and those that are already in circulation begin to be removed and often drop below detectable levels. To pursue valid testing for celiac disease you would need to resume gluten consumption equivalent to the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread daily for at least two weeks, preferably longer. These are the most recent guidelines for the "gluten challenge". Without formal testing there is no way to distinguish between celiac disease and gluten sensitivity since their symptoms overlap. However, celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that damages the small bowel lining, not true of gluten sensitivity. There is no test available for gluten sensitivity so celiac disease must first be ruled out. By the way, elevated liver enzymes was what led to my celiac diagnosis almost 25 years ago.

      Then it does not seem to me that a gluten-related disorder is at the heart of your problems, unless that is, you have refractory celiac disease. But you did not answer my question about how long you had been eating gluten free before you had the blood antibody test for celiac disease done.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Xravith · Posted

      My genetic test results have arrived - I’m homozygous for DQB1*02, meaning I have HLA-DQ2. I’ve read that this is one of the genes most strongly associated with celiac disease, and my symptoms are very clear. I’m relieved that the results finally arrived, as I was getting quite worried since my symptoms have been getting worse. Next step, blood test. What do these results imply? What should I tell my family? I’m concerned that this genetic predisposition might also affect other family members.

      So far 3 months in - worsening symptoms. I have had the worst constipation in my life and I am primarily eating naturally gluten-free foods like potatoes, eggs, salad with homemade dressing, corn tortillas, etc. I hate gluten-free bread and pasta so I don't eat it. Occasionally I eat gluten-free almond flour crackers. As stated in the post, I don't have any vitamin deficiency. I was already tested.
