Hungry!

I can't get full. Constantly nibbling. I don't think it is boredom or depression it's more like cravings. Even after a big dinner a short while later I am in the fridge and pantry looking. I never liked cottage cheese (texture) but now I crave it a couple times a day-cottage cheese and mandarin oranges. I really think I could live on it for a while. I want gummie bears (I keep a stash) I found some legal lemon drops. Fruity stuff. I eat my fruits maybe not enough veggies. Where's the beef? Love my homemade tumeric jerky. I wont even start on the pizza, maybe 3 times a week (+ or -). I had lost 30 Jan-March (now 220) then was diagnosed with Celiac and stopped my diet. I have been playing with the same 5 lbs since then.

My last glutening was May 15, My birthday.

What kinds of things do you crave?

March 2008-Celiac

April 2008-Crohns

May 2008-Spondylitis

June 2008-Mesenteric Cyst (waiting for GI appointment)

I praise God that I can lean on Him and my family.

I generally don't have cravings. If I do, there's usually a reason for it. For example, some weeks ago, I craved tomatoes and parsley. The nurse thought I was lacking in potassium and magnesium and told me to eat these very things. I can eat refried beans pretty much any time. Those always sound good. And lately I've been eating Ian's chicken nuggets for lunch pretty much every day. They are quick to heat and easy to digest.

the only cravings I get occasionally are for sugary foods. I will try to stick to fruit when this happens, or if I have them, a couple "enjoy life" cookies. I notice that if I keep my brain occupied with something else I dont think about food or really even get hungry. I think being diagnosed with celiacs makes us think about food all the time and it is always on our minds, so naturally it may make you want to eat and make you think you're hungry. I actually dont get truly hungry like I used to on gluten. Actually, when I'm ay work I can go for the whole 8 hours and not really feel like I have to eat because I'm focused on work, but I make myself eat something. When I was on gluten I would be starving if I didnt eat in 8 hours, and still not be satisfied after eating.

I was ubber hungry for the first month or so on the gluten-free diet and then it leveled off.

I dont crave food anymore. I crave health!

      Going Low-Gluten May Harm Good Gut Bacteria, Researchers Warn

      It's like a double edged sword.......we do one thing to improve a problem and cause another problem. I'd like to think the ultimate cure might be something that would train or modify the body to prevent the damage that gluten causes.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      You might try Heallix. It's a silver solution with fulvic acid. I just put the solution on with a cotton ball. It seemed to stop the nerve pain. Again, not in your eyes or ears. Go to heallix.com to read more about it and decide for yourself Also, I do think nerve and celiac combined have a lot to do with your susceptibility to shingles breaking out...

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      Celiac disease requires both genetic potential and a triggering stress event to activate the genes. Otherwise it remains dormant and only a potential problem. So having the genetic potential is not deterministic for celiac disease. Many more people have the genes than actually develop the disease. But if you don't have the genes, the symptoms are likely being...

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      Thanks, I’m still dealing with the pain and tingling and itching and feeling like bugs or something crawling around on my face and scalp. It’s been a miserable experience. I saw my eye doc last week, the eye itself was okay, so they didn’t do anything. I did take a 7 day course of an antiviral. I’m hoping for a turnaround soon! My life is full of stress ...

My life is full of stress but I have been on / off the gluten free diet for the last year , after being talked into going back on gluten to have a biopsy, that looked okay. But I do have positive antibody levels that have been responsive  to a gluten free diet. I can’t help but wonder if the last year has caused all this.

      I don't think any apps are up to date, which is exactly why this happened to you. Most of the data in such apps is years old, and it doesn't get updated in real time. Ultimately there is no substitution for learning to read labels. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.
