  1. Happy Birthday! Now you can start looking forward to a future that is in your hands and not a disease like Celiac. You now have a new start in life. Yes, your childhood has a lot to do with what you will be like in the near future, but only you have the RIGHT to change it now. I actually have been diagnosed with adjustment disorder with borderline personality...
  2. Actually, right now I'm fluctuating. I'll loose 5 lbs, then gain it back agian and I don't know how, other than excersize....lol spelling. But my body is still shrinking, little bits at a time. I can now feel my ribs which I haven't felt in along time and my hair is getting thicker. Believe me, this is a good thing.
  3. Thank you!!! I feel wonderful. I did have to up my vitamin b intake a bit, I was tired and couldn't wake up for a week, not wanting to move. Found out that I was a little anemic, and my regular vitamins weren't doing great. I did a lot of research in what types of vitamins and minerals where in wheat, and it came up primarily to vitamin b. Other than that...
  4. I know about binge eating...I do it as well, but not with anything that contains gluten. I do miss the doughnuts though..... Imagine yourself on the toilet (sorry for the visual, but it will become clear here in a minute.) You start sweating, A LOT! You can feel massive gas bubbles going through your colon. Ringing in your ears. Then all of a sudden...
  5. It will go faster. My first month, I lost 20 pounds (guessing it's the water weight) and I'm slowly loosing about 1 lb a week. It's amazing how much I eat now. I'm getting the big "double meat" platters at work with baked potato, instead of a big mac and fries. It cost's more, but I feel better for it. Sucks that taco bell puts soy sauce in everything though...
  6. Thanks! I did notice that my kidneys where working again...lol! I do have to watch the sugar intake though. I've been worried about it as of late. I drink way too much coffee for one person. (about a pot a day) and it needs to be sweet. I've tried the pink and blue packets and they make me sick. I'm going to try stevia here soon, but it is so expensive!...
  7. The water weight makes a lot of since...I've been tested for diabetes more than once in my life. My grandmother had it later on in life and I guess I'm just paranoid at the thought that I'd have it as well. She also had thyroid cancer, and a few other ailments that she suffered from. I'm guessing I got the gene from her.
  8. I heard a rumor that there is a cafe in south Austin somewhere that is exclusively gluten-free. I haven't found it yet, but if you call some bakery's around here, you might find someone who knows someone who can bake one for you. BTW, congrats!
  9. I have been gluten-free for about 4 months now, just before Halloween 2008. I did a lot of research into this disease and found that it fit ALL my symptoms to a T. I have an issue with this "gluten-free diet" that I'm on and was wondering if anyone has experienced this... I am what doctors call "morbid obese". I haven't lost much in the way of pounds...
  10. The problem with us "Self Diagnosed" people is that we don't know what is happening to our bodies. I did a lot of research on Celiac's before I came to the conclusion that I had this (or just intolerant....the cure is the same either way). You might be getting a little lactose intolerant. The next time you eat ice cream or drink a glass of milk, try one of...
