ARCHIVED Do I Really Need A Biopsy?
BlueBridie posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Hi There, I'm new, but have posted a few replies already. I do however have some questions regarding my diagnosis. My doctor ran many food allergy tests, and when the results came back he told me everything was normal except I had high protein levels indicating inflammation, and the test for Celiac Disease was positive. He did mention that Drs usually... -
I complained about exactly the same thing! gluten-free goods seem to be higher in fat and calories, so I've been very nervous about putting on weight. I haven't been gluten free for long, but have been eating already put on weight! I asked around this forum a few days ago and got lots of responses saying I should try and limit the processed carbs and...

I never kept sweets or snack food in the house. My willpower is appalling so I knew if it was there I'd eat it, if it wasn't and I REALLY wanted it, I'd allow myself to walk to the shop and buy something - which was a lot of effort so rarely happened! The first thing I did when I went gluten free was stock up on sweets and snack because I figured they...

Since doing that (only 2 days ago... -

I've only been Gluten Free for a week, but am learning quickly thanks to reading other people's journeys. I've been wondering why I've been getting stomach cramps and all sorts of nasties now that I'm OFF the gluten, and... -
I'm finding it really hard to STOP EATING! I've been Gluten free for less than a week, and have been trying so hard to stick to my usual healthy diet minus the gluten. Not happening! I can't stop eating rice crackers! From what I keep seeing, eating protein is the key, but as many know, if you can't eat dairy or gluten, it doesn't leave much, and even...

ARCHIVED Can't Quench My Appitite
BlueBridie replied to SuzyVandy's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I've only been gluten free for a week and still learning the ropes. But I'm the same, I can't stop eating! Anything and everything, within 30 mins of eating I'm hungry again! The peanut butter's a good idea, but I keep putting it on gluten-free Bread or crackers - should stop that I guess. Higher protein sounds sensible, but I have the added problem...
