Can't Loose Weight

Hello everyone,

What a great resource. The information on this site is great although, a little overwhelming as I have just been newly diagnosed. My symptoms have been sporadic and gone undiagnosised for years. One thing I don't quiet understand is that instead of loosing a lot of weight I have trouble keeping my weight under control. Subsequently, I have always eaten very healthy and exercise quiet a bit and it has been a mystery to me that I loosing weight is so difficult. For what I eat and exercise I should not be having so much trouble. Anyone have any thoughts on this.

Regards,

kar

Have you been trying to lose weight, and the scale won't move? This can often signify low thyroid, and thyroid issues can be common with us celiacs.

Yep, I have been on all kinds of diets and no diets just eating healthy. I typically weigh all my food to watch portion control. It seems the amount I eat doesn't matter it's when I have a day or two when I just eat what I want and then I can't seem to drop the couple of pounds I have gained over two days. I have gained 4 lbs on a weekend.

One, of the blood test I just got done was a thyroid test but all other annual thyroid test have come back normal.

So, we keep trying and we'll see

thanks for your imput

      Why?

      By mishyj · Posted

      Perhaps I should also have said that in addition to showing a very high response to gluten, her stool study showed that she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that.

      Why?

      By mishyj · Posted

      My daughter has celiac disease and has had for a long time. She fell loses strictly gluten-free diet and recently got rid of all cutting boards in any gluten in her house at all. She just had a stool test and it came back showing of gigantic response to gluten in her diet. What could be going on since she doesn't eat any gluten and is very careful about any kind of hidden glue? Help!

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By cristiana · Posted

      I think sometimes the pain described here can be a result of a sort of 'perfect storm' of contributing factors.  Recently I had an appalling bout of lower back pain, lower burning gut pain and what felt like cramps.  I then started to think about what could have caused it and I realised it was several things that had set it off: I'd been carrying heavy luggage (back strain); I had been sitting down in a car for too long and wearing a tight belt (I have pudendal nerve issues and sacroiliac issues and this exacerbates the pain), and I had bloating and burning pain in my colon caused by eating too much soy, latte and caffeine, I guess putting further pressure in the lower abdomen.  I had this same pain prior to my diagnosis and a couple of years post-diagnosis, I'd quite forgotten how unpleasant it was.

      Have this rash forming on the back of my legs. Looking for relief outside of going to the doctor.

      By cristiana · Posted

      HI @Kirbyqueen That's great news your insurance will be kicking in soon.  Sorry to see that you have been dealing with this for six months now, but I do hope you have managed to find some relief with some of the suggestions in the meantime. Perhaps come back and let us know what the doctor says. Cristiana

      Trying to read my lab results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I agree, and hopefully your doctor will contact you soon about the next step, which will likely be an endoscopy to confirm your diagnosis. Do you have celiac disease symptoms?
