Weight Gain!

FINALLY got up to 130lbs! Been binge eating my coconut flat bread, cheese sauces, coconut, hemp seeds, almonds, and most recently GROUND COCOA NIBS, I found roasted cocoa nibs online in 1.5lb bags for $23. I been eating about 1/2 cup a meal blending in shakes, icecream, sprinkle toppings etc. I love how the different roast and sources of the beans gives different flavors and find the combinations quite fun. I also took a tip from a body builder buddy and got some ketones and potassium and started taking them along with 7 digestive enzyme tablets before a meal (serving size is 3). Results were I put on almost a full 3lbs in a week after years of trying to bulk up. This is fantastic. seems to be muscle to boot.

Now that my health is up, I feel more like doing stuff, just wish business would pick up with the bakery and the almond butter sales.

I always laugh when people say they're going gluten free to lose weight.

HA! tell that to the +10lbs I lost in a month before going gluten-free. Of course, last winter I went a little too far the other way, so when I lost 10lb fairly quickly this spring, I was relieved that my vitamin levels were all still good. It's stayed put for the past while, which is good.

Anyway, great to hear you have your energy back! (cocoa nibs are highly deceptive little suckers)

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.

      You might try Heallix.  It's a silver solution with fulvic acid. I just put the solution on with a cotton ball.  It seemed to stop the nerve pain. Again,  not in your eyes or ears.   Go to heallix.com to read more about it and decide for yourself Also,  I do think nerve and celiac combined have a lot to do with your susceptibility to shingles breaking out.

      Celiac disease requires both genetic potential and a triggering stress event to activate the genes. Otherwise it remains dormant and only a potential problem. So having the genetic potential is not deterministic for celiac disease. Many more people have the genes than actually develop the disease. But if you don't have the genes, the symptoms are likely being caused by something else.

      Yes, i pulled raw ancetry data and saw i have 2/3 markers for DQ2.2 but have heard from friends in genetics that this raw data can be wildly innacurate
