I just found out my blood tests for celiac came back positive and I'm also looking for friends to follow here on MFP to be sort of a support for me. It's a drastic change for me to go gluten free but I have to do it because being sick 24/7 is not fun!

Start Weight (May 1st): 156 Goal Weight (June 5th): 150 Weigh-Ins May 1st: 156 May 8th: May 15th: May 22nd: May 29th: June 5th: Fitness/Health Goals: gain muscle and lower my body fat percetage. I just found that my local grocery store has a Higi health station so I can easily tracky progress!

@CaSsCuTeRz your situation sounds so similar to mine, it's crazy. I also had my gallbladder taken out when I was 16. When they dissected it they couldn't find anything wrong with it and my stomach problems were actually worse after that! I saw my doctor today and she said the exact same thing you did all about the test…

I actually went to the doctor whenever I had the rash for 4 months already and she was not concerned and only gave me a cream which didn't help. I decided for myself to change my diet otherwise I would have definitely had that done at the time.

I didn't know about that. I wonder how many people are like me who feel horrible every single day but have no idea what to do. I feel like I have a new life now that I don't live in pain.

I feel like I can go talk to my doc now and give me valuable information about my suspicious now and get to the specialists that can help me best figure this all out. I have an appointmet next week to get a referral for a scratch allergy test so I can find out if there are other things I should stay away from. I printed a…

I feel the same. If my doc cant give me answers unless i go back to eating the food I know makes me sick, I will forgo a diagnosis and keep doing what I'm doing now since its working me. I'm mostly worried about future health problems I may run into if I don't atleast have a discussion with the doc.

Thank you all so very much for your input here!!!! I have never had any tests done for allergies. I had my gall bladder removed when I was 16 (now I'm almost 31) after a year of blood and radiologic testing because I was having horroble stomach problems even back then. My issue has gotten worse over the years so whose to…

I'll be back May 1 to start the challenge

Hi all I've been a huge fan of MyFitnessPal for a while now but I've never had many friends on here to follow and get motivation from so I am here today to find new people who are active and also on a lifelong journey like me :-).

I could also benefit from. support from others, add me.

I've also been going toward a vegan lifestyle and I like to use MFP to track the foods I eat and new recipes I try. :)

Well I don't have a problem going too often just a lot of pain all the time from a very inflamed and sensitive bladder.

I just found out I also have IC and now I have to find out what triggers it and start to heal. I want to use this site to help me make sure that I am doing everything I can to get better. I don't know if it's stress or food induced so I am starting my weekend with a very limited diet and moderate exercise. I really love…

LOVE THIS! I came online today to actually vent a little that my diet and exercise is not working for me! Instead of whining I am going to keep at it! Thank for being inspiring for me today!!

Welcome and Good Luck! This site has helped me eat healthier by being aware of what and how much I am eating daily. Glad you joined us here at MFP!

Love this thread so I am giving it a bump :-)

Yum! What a easy recipe!

Kesha has some good fast tunes. Also try DJ Mea, she has fast techno beats!

Thank you! I am trying to convince my best friend to join here but she is stuck on her HCG diet. The problem there is she gains all the weight she loses back once she takes the break between cycles. :-(
