No one has noticed more than my husband!! He keeps saying, "Who are you and what did you do with my wife?!!" I think it has something to do with not being fatigued and in a fog bank all the time.

Don't know about me yet. Just recently gluten free and with the baby and not starting my cycle yet, that makes a difference. I used to respond via where I was in my cycle so I'll be curious to see whether that is the same or not. Time will tell.

Yes and no, mostly no. I was still feeling pretty crappy even 4 months in, and now I'm on a challenge...so...ask me in a year? :unsure:

Not to say that it's bad!!! It's great, so maybe there's not much room for improvement :P

mine wasn't ever anything but wonderful. :P however, after cuddles have improved due to my lack of sharp tummy pains. :D I can be super happy about that. B)

Gluten free hasn't changed anything. My sex life got fantastic when I got out of my bad marriage and met my wonderful boyfriend a year and a half ago.

no change. but there are other medical issues I deal with in that realm (vulvar vestibulitis).

Mine depends on how my stomach is feeling. I'm up and down on the gluten free thing so on the good days my sex life is good. On the other days it's stay away my stomach is the size of a 5 month pregnant women. I'm glad those are few and fare between.

Let you know after empy nest plays out....but looking for no surprises. I hate surprises. :ph34r:

Sigh -- I know it would be better if I weren't in the aftermath of a breakup. Okay, enough self-pity for one day!

I grant you a little bit more, but only if you also have a gluten free snack with it, like....... some........ice cream.

Edit:

Nevermind -- Ice cream sounds like a good idea.......

Actually, I've discovered the wonders of semi-professional massage -- don't know why I hadn't come up with this one earlier -- I happen to live in a town with a world-class massage school, so there are lots of students running around looking to give free massage so they can meet their pre-licensing quotas.

And, I'm abusing the attentions of a male friend with whom I have absolutely no sexual chemistry -- having established that we are _never_ going to hook up (I was a lot more diplomatic in my discussion of this with him), I feel free to cuddle on the couch and watch movies with him.

My body is ridiculously ready to go out and play again -- I've developed another layer of voluptuousness (a word I would never have used to describe mysef before) over the last few months. However, I know I'm absolutely not not not healed emotionally enough from my breakup yet to even consider sex with another person -- not to mention the fact that I have no idea in my head how one might go about finding said person.

you can have fun though, go to the movies, learn to play a sport. volunteer somewhere. getting out of the house and being around people will help you heal emotionally and you won't be sitting around thinking about "you know what"

just my unprofessional advice though...LOL

I still think ice cream is a good idea (of course I really am craving that right now........mmmm......chocolate....)

carriecraig Enthusiast

Yes, absolutely. My husband and I have been together for over 10 years, married for 3, and it's like we are in the beginning of our relationship all over again. It's fantastic! ;)

      @Scatterbrain, Thiamine Vitamin B1 and amino acid Taurine work together.  Our bodies can make Taurine from meats consumed.  Our bodies cannot make Thiamine and must consume thiamine from food.  Meat is the best source of B vitamins like Thiamine.   Vegetarians may not make sufficient taurine since they don't eat meat sources of taurine.  Seaweed is the best vegetarian source of taurine. Vegetarians may not consume sufficient Thiamine since few veggies are good sources.  Whole grains, legumes, and nuts and seeds contain thiamine.  Many of these sources can be hard to digest and absorb for people with Celiac disease.   You may find taking the forms of thiamine called Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and a B Complex will give the benefits you're looking for better than taurine alone.

      @Jmartes71, I went to Doterra's site and had a look around.  The Doterra TerraZyme supplement really jumped out at me.  Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients.  The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus!  Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces!  Considering the fact that Celiac often have permeable intestines (leaky gut syndrome), I would be very hesitant to take a product like this.  Although there may not be live black mold or yeast in the product, the enzymes may still cause an immune system response which would definitely cause inflammation throughout the body.   Skin, eyes, and intestines are all made from the same basic type of cells.  Your skin on the outside and eyes can reflect how irritated the intestines are on the inside.  Our skin, eyes, and intestines all need the same vitamins and nutrients to be healthy:  Vitamin A, Niacin B3 and Tryptophan, Riboflavin B2, Biotin B7, Vitamin C, and Omega Threes.  Remember that the eight B vitamins work together.  Just taking high doses of just one, vitamin like B12, can cause a deficiency in the others.  Taking high doses of B12 can mask a Folate B9 deficiency.  If you take B12, please take a B Complex, too.  Thiamine B1 can be taken in high doses safely without toxicity.  Thiamine is needed by itself to produce energy so every cell in the body can function, but Thiamine also works with the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes and digestive enzymes.  Deficiencies in either Niacin, Vitamin C, or Thiamine can cause digestive problems resulting in Pellagra, Scurvy, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   If you change your diet, you will change your intestinal microbiome.  Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet, will starve out SIBO bacteria.  Thiamine keeps bacteria in check so they don't get out of control as in SIBO.  Thiamine also keeps MOLDS and Yeasts from overgrowth.   Menopause symptoms and menstrual irregularities are symptomatic of low Vitamin D.   Doctors are not as knowledgeable about malnutrition as we need them to be.  A nutritionist or dietician would be more helpful.   Take control of your diet and nutrition.  Quit looking for a pill that's going to make you feel better overnight.  The Celiac journey is a marathon, not a sprint.   "Let food be your medicine, and let medicine be your food."

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.

      I've used magnesium taurinate and magnesium taurate vitamins.  Didn't notice much of a difference when I used them.

      Anyone experimented with Taurine supplementation either via electrolyte powders or otherwise? Thanks
