Coming to grips with the fact that in order for me to lose weight in a timely manor I have to cut out gluten, sugar and dairy :sad: ...I,m exercising and eating with in my calorie range but it doesn't matter ....my weight loss journey is stalled I'm not budging and it's killing me. I'm trying so hard...but now I know I cannot eat normal anymore if I want to make change I have to eat right for my colitis.

So frustrating! It sounds like you're doing it all right, though; smart. Has your doctor suggested sites or programs that offer menu options?0

Take a look at the Specific Carb Diet. I was on it for two yrs and felt great. A side benefit was that I lost weight. I'm 5'8" and went down to 120. It's no grains, gluten, sugar, lactose.
The diet was designed for those with intestinal issues.0
