Losing weight on a gluten-free diet is one of the positive side effects of having Celiac disease. There are some however that struggle with their weight even though they have become intolerant to Gluten. If you are gaining weight and eating foods which are free from wheat, then maybe you need something to give your body a fat burning boost.
I know quite well how becoming gluten intolerant can have an effect on your body. Having a close family member who became ill, and then diagnosed with Celiac disease I know what simple steps can be changed to turn things around. I know for some having that overnight change in diet means a quick and dramatic loss of weight.
What if you are gaining weight?
It's not common for people to pile on the pounds when changing their diet, but simple changes in the foods you eat can turn things around, and get your body on the right track. You can make simple changes, many of them you probably thought were not possible. Did you ever think that eating Gluten Free pizza was a good thing? OK, we are not talking about eating it everyday, but it is possible to eat these foods, stay healthy and lose weight.
Losing Weight On A Gluten Free Diet.
The close family member I mentioned earlier also had energy problems. Are you having low energy days, feeling like you have no fuel in your tank? A problem associated with this is eating Gluten, but what if you are not eating it? You may be falling into the trap of consuming foods which are tough to digest, and this could be using up some of your energy levels.
The last small piece of advice I'm going to give you is, not to stop eating your favourite foods. When a major change in your life such as this hits you, it can give some people low confidence levels, and having to stop eating the foods you love can be a really big blow for many. This is a really important, you must keep on eating those foods which have become a source of comfort and enjoyment.
Having to change to eating non Gluten foods can seem like a major change in your life, but in time you will find it's only a small change. You will find many substitutes which are now becoming more popular, as Celiac disease starts to become more common in younger people too.
