long story short.. my first year of being gluten-free i gained 36 pounds because i was so sick before hand..blah blah.. we've all heard it before.. anyways.. i have been eating really well for the past 6 months and going to the gym 4 days a week and i hike my dog for an hour every morning and i have lost 20 pounds!! yayy!! butttt..................

these last 10 just wont come off.... and i dont want to take diet pills forever.. just for a few weeks.. i know i can continue to lose weight the correct way when i get home from my wedding.. but i also have a $2000 wedding gown i HAVE to fit in.

Good luck Coleen! Be careful with diet pills. Some list wheat grass as an ingredient and, though it is technically considered gluten free, it is a BIG no no for me and most other celiacs. I'm sorry I don't have any more information on gluten free diet pills. I take One A Day Weight Smart vitamins. They're supposed to help you lose weight, but they're not a diet pill.

I take Hydroxycutt with caffeine in it. I've lost 15 pounds so far. Nowadays they don't have anything bad in them. Although if you have thyroid problems, they're not recommended.

Drink more cold water with lemon and unsweetened green tea than you think you can stand, that definitely helps take the weight off!

a gallon a day!

      Inhaler problem

      By Ann13 · Posted

      I have the exact same symptoms for a couple of wks now but I've been taking Symbicort for quite awhile at this point. I read you can get yeast infection in the vocal cords so I may ask my Dr. for antifungal meds cos I cant wait for an ENT exam. Also read on this site the connection between Vit D and K2 deficiency and asthma...doesn't apply to me cos mine is from mold in a house years ago but still might try and see if my asthma improves. I am Celiac and gluten causes the same symptoms but it says this inhaler is gluten free and it only started acting up so that option is out. I use Ventolin on occasion but using that for many many years. For me I will see if can switch inhalers to a brand that...

      Did a little more research just now and found out that even though the max methane should not exceed 10. It is normal to be around 3 and not rise. Again, I was at 13 so this does make me a bit suspicious. This was done back in May of 2024. I do recall being put on 14 day Antibiotic called Rifaximin but I'm really not sure if it made a difference, but if it did, then the problems still came back:(

      I did a SIBO Test about a year ago, and I barely elevated on the Methane portion (max was 10 and I hit 13). Dr wasn't too concerned.

      Have you looked into SIBO (Small Intestine Bacterial Overgrowth)?  Also, MCAS (Mast Cell Activation Syndrome)/histamine intolerance (they go together like a hand and glove).  Both of the above are common in the celiac community.

      So tough for me when my symptoms are asymptomatic. Only excessive gas, floating stools and occasional discomfort in my lower right abdomen. These symptoms do not change, regardless of how I eat too:(  I'm sure that next week the GI doctor will discuss my findings and pathology results with me. It's at that time I may push for an MRI or CT scan of the abdomen. I prefer the MRI to avoid unnecessary radiation too.
