weight lost

Question: as I continue on a gluten free diet will I stabilize with my weight lost, two weeks gluten free? Off budesonide pill one more day. I have a good amount of fat on my body to not worry at this point of time.

For many of us, our malabsorption of nutrients is so bad initially, because of the inflammation that causes MC, that it takes several months of intestinal healing, after we adopt the gluten-free diet, before we can begin gaining weight, again. And that's assuming that we're taking in more calories in our diet than we are using in our daily activities. If we don't take in more calories than we are burning, then we can't gain weight.

I apologize for not being able to give a "yes" or "no" answer, but many of us have much more intestinal damage, and therefore, a bigger malabsorption problem, than others, and depending on our thyroid function, we all have different metabolism rates.

Hi,

This is a up date concerning my weight lost, 55 pounds in total. In remission it has slowed down.
