Hey All, I'm a 40 yo male who was just dx'd in September and weighted 153 lbs and 5'9". I started working out lifting heavy and playing hockey 2x/week (+taking creatine as well) in July and tracking calories daily on MFP. I have my calories set at about 300 calories over maintenance. After the first 3 months of lifting I had got up to about 161 lbs...

I'm from Halifax and going to be in TO in a couple weeks for work but going a day early to catch a game. We are staying at the Delta right near the ACC. Does anyone know any celiac safe places to eat in the area? I'm not sure what I'm going to do for food when I get there as I'm a newly diagnosed silent celiac. I advised the hotel for the work conference...

I also have to mention that I have what my derm says is psoriasis but I"m starting to think maybe related to this with the itchy rashes i get on my butt checks, knees and elbows when I have flares. I was also a heavy drinker for years before I quit a year ago so I hope its not related to that.

Hi All, First time post. I'm 40, just had my bloodwork done and asked to be tested for celiac as my mother was just diagnosed with silent celiac on biopsy.
