Hi, I eat a clean diet similar to what you described. I am also slow to lose weight but it is coming down bit by bit. I know that some people who have damage from celiac never really retained nutrients prior to going gluten-free and as a result could lose weight or be very thin no matter what was being eaten. I've never been that person. That said,...

Hey Josh, I don't have quite the same situation as you do but I have found that when I take off and land more than once in a day (and it is worse on the way back for some reason) I end up feeling very bloated and uncomfortable for a couple of days and then it has to "work itself out". The best answer I have come up with is actually taking some dramamine...

Hi, I can't say that I have had the problems you have with glutenous rice. When I went to China I was very suspect of it (as it was in many things that I ate) and I felt better than I do at home. That said, I do know of people who have Celiac and also develop an issue with rice in general. Do you have any reaction to other rice products? Unfortunately...

Hi Hashisgirl, I never realized how much gluten took out of me until I finally eliminated it completely. I've been gluten-free for almost 2 years now and the rewards FAR outweigh the difficulties. The reward for being really diligent has been finding that I don't have to WORK to enjoy an entire day of doing things. I used to find that the things that...

Hi, What kinds of things do you eat at work? If you think that you have rabbit starvation my guess is that you aren't eating many high nutrient foods. That makes me nervous for you. I'm not sure if rabbit starvation is possible but the likelihood that you are not getting the nutrition that your body really needs seems likely. The thing is, gluten free...

Hi Solarpower, I can't say I had the same kind of pain that you have (it sounds really awful) but I did suffer for quite some time with a nagging stabbing pain in my ribcage. I actually kept becoming paranoid that I was having some kind of heart problem because I would get so short of breath and tightness/pain in my chest. I went back to my doctor several...

Hi, I hope you are feeling better! I don't think it should continue to get worse but when I'm glutened I do think it damages everything and i lose the good gut bacteria. I would try a good probiotic. I know some people think they are balogna but I have found a lot of success with them. Ive used phillipscolon health but I believe there are some more effective...

About a month ago I started the Eat to Live plan that Dr Fuhrman suggests. (eating a predominantly vegan diet rich in the highest nutrient per calorie foods) which means aiming for up to a pound of cooked and a pound of uncooked veggies. At least one serving of beans and nuts and seeds/day and at least 3 fruits. I haven't been super strict with it but the...
