I was doing WW before and am on my first week of gluten free. I can already tell I feel SO MUCH BETTER. I went off for the last few weeks before my endoscopy. Today was the first day I felt like..OK I am ready. Pointing here I come. I am curious to see if losing weight will be easier now. I always felt that I gained weight suddenly when my first symptoms...

I am awaiting biopsy results but I was in so much upper abdomen pain and was SUPER bloated that I decided to just go gluten free and not wait. I felt really alert the first day! I was shocked! But I had really bad stomach pain for a few days still and decided to cut out dairy too as well as onions and beans for now to see if anything helped. It has only...

I did feel the rapid heartbeat one other time at Easter dinner when I accidently ate boxed scalloped potatoes that I later checked and they contained wheat. Is this...

Thank you very much, Peter. I appreciate it.

I am totally new to this. If I product does not contain "wheat" does that make it gluten-free? I am wondering about Barbara's Puffins Cereal Original. Here are the ingredients: Yellow Corn Flour, Corn Bran Flour, Molasses (Unsulfured), Oat Flour, Expeller Pressed High Oleic Oil (Canola and/or Sunflower), Salt, Baking Soda, Vitamin E (Natural...

Has anyone tested positive for celiac with the *only* symptoms being extreme exhaustion and that fuzzy brain feeling? Weepy/depressed. I also get a "moon" face and stomach bloating. These are my symptoms. No stomach issues. I have gained weight over the past 3 years and seem to CRAVE gluten products. I find that if I eat one thing with flour I...
