Keto diet

Hello Celiac world

So I went out and bought all the gluten free products, and then proceeded to binge on gluten free cookies and chips.  My body just screaming for carbs carbs carbs.

That is not going to help my weight loss, or how I feel overall  (gluten free doesn't mean sugar free)

Now I am setting myself up with the Keto diet.

The adventure continues

Hello Celiac

A week ago I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease after a lot of tests.

It has been at least five years of trying to figure out why I have anemia, fatigue, depression, no energy my joints ache, get a rash on my feet, brain fog, stomach problems.  Because I have an eating disorder  (I am obese 270lbs) Celiac was last on the list.  I didn't get the rapid weight loss symptom (murphy's law the fat girl trying to loose weight gets Celiac with no weight loss - oh well)

It was probably triggered by my last pregnancy when I had my second son in 2010 in my early forties.

I have been up and down in weight my entire adult life.  Starting around the age of 9 (nine) I started binge eating to cope with bullies at school in the 1970's.  I have been on every diet known to man since the age of 12 (twelve).  My addiction is sugar.  I don't really drink very often.  I am a non smoker.  I dream morning noon and night about sugar.

Now I have Celiac.  A new journey begins.

I wonder where it will take me
