Thanks Ajay...you are right...everyone has been so nice. This message board is becoming addictive. I am so amazed about how many people..even those in the medical field are so uneducated about this disease. i spoke to a friend who is a dietitian and has been for 36yrs. and she claims she's only ever met 4 celiacs in her career! Bless her heart she... -

I understand why but then again...for someone like me...gluten accounts for the majority of foods i eat (until now)...Has anyone lost weight since they went gluten free?

ARCHIVED Are There Any Other Celiacs That Are Overweight?
jacklyn1981 replied to Jules's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Hi, I have just been told that i am a celiac but I'm not convinced as i have been overweight all my life and I do not have the skin issue i have been reading about associated with celiac. While i have battled stomach issues all my life but not to the extent that i have been reading about. The Dr. did a biopsy and said i had it...but i am reluctant to make...
