ARCHIVED How Do Some Celiacs Put On Weight?
homemaker replied to adm07's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
It is so interesting what your doc said about your body "clinging to every calorie consumed". My story is similar I was overweight as well... ..I also lived on 1200 calorie diet and had difficulty losing weight...and it was only when I went gluten free did my hunger hit...as I posted above... "It was as if my body was trying to hold onto the the food forever... -
Like most recipes ....you can substitute other flours...but the recipe works best with a sweet rice flour either brown or white... The sweet rice flour adds an extra something to the bread...but you can try brown rice flour and see how it comes out...

ARCHIVED Received Enterolab Results
homemaker replied to sunnybabi1986's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Yeah I am still waiting ...it will be 2 weeks one day....they say 3 weeks...at least... I had to wait a week after finally receiving the test because I was on fish oils...and if you are taking over 1000mg of fish oils they want you off of them for at least one week before testing...so I waited the week...and sent them in...now I just wait... -

ARCHIVED Received Enterolab Results
homemaker replied to sunnybabi1986's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I noticed something on Enterolabs website that might be helpful... "If my antigliadin antibody levels are only mildly elevated, does that mean I can eat some gluten? This question is more "wishful thinking" resulting from the mind trying to turn a positive test into what might want to be called "low positive" or even the equivalent of negative. However... -

ARCHIVED How Do Some Celiacs Put On Weight?
homemaker replied to adm07's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I was overweight before going gluten-free. Before I went gluten-free I had terrible constipation, bloating and gas. It was as if my body was trying to hold onto the the food forever...perhaps to squeeze every ounce of nutrients out of what I ate....I had no anemia.... Today, being gluten-free for only 6 weeks...I can say that my body feels starving...I am... -
