Diagnosed with celiac disease about 4 months ago. For those of you that have been gluten free, do you have firm bowel movements everyday now? I am firm about once or twice every two weeks and then it turns bad. This is pretty much what I eat everyday.

Salad

Kraft Thousand Island

Tomaotes

Cheddar Cheese

Onions

White or Brown Rice

Oatmeal (gluten free)

eggs

bananna

Apple with p-nut butter

Black or Kidney Beans

Chicken with Lawry's

Steak with a little salt

I now have formed BM's unless i make a mistake then I don't... 4 months is still early days yet it can take a while for things to heal.. i can't eat oats even gluten-free ones, and I'm sure others will come back with what they react to as well... I've had celiac disease since early childhood but only diagnosed for the last almost 9 years now, and I'm still making mistakes usually only when i relax my vigilence.... such as not seeing which free flow agent they use in salt/spice... I use sea salt in a grinder now and the same for pepper (pepper corns in a grinder).. At my age i also have to take a magnifying glass shopping B) Good Luck and keep going...

I have been gluten free for 13 months now and feel fabulous but my bowel movements are not always "normal". My first advice is GET RID OF THE OATMEAL. I am very surprised your doctor says they are ok. Because oats and wheat are usually grown in the same fields it is almost impossible for them to be gluten free. You need to add some veggies to your diet. Try broccoli, cauliflower, etc. This will help with your problem. Good luck to you.

Ugghh...I love oatmeal. That's the only other option I have for breakfast during the week besides eggs. I will give it a try and see what happens! Thanks!

You could always try Cream of Rice...it's no oatmeal but it is a hot cereal that can be similar if you add the right toppings. It's quick and easy too!

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.
