<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Hello, This is my first post to the list, but Sandy's post about feeling the need to eat all the time struck a chord with me. My husband was diagnosed - biopsy confirmed- with celiac sprue the end of April. With the help of this list and the archives, Bette Hagman's More from the Gluten Free Gourmet, info from CSA/USA, and Jax Lowell Peter's book, I think he's effectively eliminated gluten from his diet. The only noticeable improvement he has is almost total elimination of gas. One side effect however, is that he is eating 2 - 3 times what he normally ate before. This, of course, has resulted in drastic, unwanted, weight gain. Needless to say, he is frustrated with life! We both know what to do about weight loss diets, exercise, etc. to now lose this unwanted weight. What we want to ask the list is what gives with this insatiable appetite he's developed? Any insight into this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for all your support and help in getting us on board quickly with gluten free living. Deb
