lauriejo, that celiac is a tricky one. The world sticks gluten in so many places. Are you avoiding hydrolyzed yeast and 'flavorings'?
I'm 5'4" and big boned,and solid.I don't look bad now I don't think.But would like to lose some more.Even 20 pounds.I think 120 is too small for me too.But "weight sheets" say I should weigh 125.
Sadly, I am back on oral steroids, plus an injection, so I am bummed big time. Usually I gain 15 pounds and keep it for a long time. I'm hoping this time will be different.
