I have now been Gluten Free for one year, officially. It feels like forever and a day. It's gotten a lot more natural but it is still odd to consider that this is a life long committment. This is my post of success, I survived!

Yes, congrats! I'm exactly one month away from my 1 year anniversary--not feeling great in terms of health, but I feel like an expert on the diet, etc. :D

Congratulations!

It does feel like a lot longer when 1 year comes around. You've done it this long and now you know you'll make it the rest of your life!

celiac3270,

I'm sorry to see that you aren't feeling well yet. I met a man

through a family friend who said that it took him 3years

to heal, he is a lot older than you. Just a thought, have you

given up dairy? Thats what I had to do and I know others

have.

Thanks--no, haven't tried that because the tests said that I didn't have any intolerances/allergies with milk products/dairy/casein/lactose, etc.

Yes--the first year does seem to take forever. It's hard to believe that only a year ago I was eating wheat-filled bagels every morning, pizzas, pastas, etc.

Congrats again, Stargirl :D

Congrats, it should get a lot easier to be able to resist a lot of things now that you are on your first year but things are still hard to resist. I had a doughnut just yesterday :( and I have been on this diet for 4 years. But it does get a lot easier.

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

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.
