Hey I had the exact same thing. in 6 months I dropped to 60lbs at 10years and I weighed less than my 6 yearold friend who could pick me up and carry me around. I've always been thin but this was extreme. My friend who was 6 turned 7 and could still pick me up and carry me around. My mom became frantic and took up to the doctor who didn't believe I was actually sick he thought I was purposely making myself have diarah. Which I would have done ANYTHING to avoid.eventually my parents stopped believing that I was sick because I was sick everyday and after every meal when it was time to wash dishes I was sick and would dash to the bathroom and stay in there for an hour. So they thought I was "being sick" to avoid chores. After what seemed like forever my mom absolutely would not take no for an answer had made my quack of a doctor give me a blood test for celiac disease because my aunt has it. I was very disapointed that I didn't have just a virus which could have been treated with medication. Alas it was not. I have now gained 20lbs in the last 3 and a hlaf years that I have been on the celiac disease diet

I don't have someone who worries about me like that but what the other said is true why would he blame himself? it's genetic and he can't possibly be responsable. My friends were just glad to see me gain weight as I was 60 lbs weighing less than my 6 year old friend. My very best friend (a guy aswell) doesn't blame himself because he knows it's genetic and stuff but he worries that I don't eat enough and that I'm going to die and stuff but I tell him that I ain't going to die by missing a meal now and then. I don't think he believes me that much

Well in one book about celiac disease this one woman said that she doesn't bother explaining anymore about being Celiac so when she goes to weddings and tuff she says she's eaten already and stuff. What I do I just pull out a chocolate bar or skittles or something when someone offers me a cookie or something and tell them that that cookie will make me very ill. I've only gotten the 7 heads look once from my friend who I thought was my best friend and turned out that she wasn't. All my real freidns were concerned and did everything they could to make me feel better. And when they saw me gaining weight they thought that maybe I didn't have it so bad after all. Infact one of my friends often says that my food looks better than what she's having and I let her use a clean fork or spoon and taste whatever I'm having that day. I know what it feels like to be left out because every Sunday we have a potluck idea at our church and I can't hardly ever have anything that is on the table and I have to bring something totally differant. But sometimes a salad or one of the best cooks in the church brings a soup which I can have. I feel really good if I can have something that everyone else is having because then I don't feel so differant. my mother likes to stick out in a crowd but I like to blend in and not be noticed.

hey you can have the sausage and the hashbrowns and the scrambled eggs and the ice cream sundae and you can have a shake there too but I can't remember which one.

I need some candy. BRB
