Winter sickness
Has anyone have trouble getting sick or really bad sinus infections during winter? I've been trying to take normal vitamins and eating proper. However I've been almost getting sick every week then like a two week break then back again. Wondering if that's just a celiac thing or just something random😅

I get sick so much! I have thought it was having kids around but I’ve been sick twice this month and I’m the only one in my family who caught it. I’m hoping the iron infusion I got a few weeks ago will help.

@Lila McRae thanks for the nudge, I had bought a box and forgot. I have a terrible cold right now and simple sugar is just what I need. Can confirm, pretty great!

@Amanda Schaffer I have not made bread I liked yet. My sister did just make some excellent biscotti tho (she is also celiac we found out after my family got tested after my diagnosis)
Losing Weight as a Celiac
How long after diagnosis should I try to lose weight? I was diagnosed about two months ago at 44 years old. My weight is about 20lbs (Canadian) over where I like it to sit. It appears I’ve been celiac likely since I finished cancer treatment over 10 years ago but was finally diagnosed because my fatigue and iron were just getting worse and worse. My weight was going up I think because I was always hungry (not absorbing nutrients well) and always tired so not moving much. I’m starting to feel better now after two months gluten free and getting iron and B vitamin and a few other infusions. What I’m wondering is, should I start a weight loss journey now or should I let my body heal more first? I’m also of course perimenopausal which pays a role. My dr said she could put me on a weight loss drug if I haven’t lost weight in 6 months but if I could do it myself that would be nice. Thoughts? Anyone else have experience with being an overweight celiac?

No stomach issues?!
Hiya, this might be a stupid question and super obvious but it’s on my mind 🤣 I’m very early into my GF journey, only a few weeks of strict coeliac for various reasons😬 I was preparing myself for lots of after issues as my gut heals as I’d read people get like a gluten withdrawal and stomach issues as they adjust. My stomach pains & toilet got so bad before I went GF is was really effecting my daily life and making me feel crap. But since I’ve not had one stomach issue. Is that a good sign or is it still to come? 😅 I’m wondering if my stomach is just so happy I’m finally GF that it’s not going to play me up 🤣 x

@Bryony L ok so the message I’m hearing is keep going! Like, I wasn’t going to do anything else but it is good to know there may be rough patches before it fully gets better.
🌮 Tasty Tuesday: Taco Loaded Potatoes
This is one of those meals that feels fun and satisfying, but still supports your goals! It’s packed with protein, full of flavour, and a great option when you’re craving something a bit different from your usual meal prep. 📊 Per serving: 626 calories | 53g protein | 37g carbs | 29g fat Here’s what you’ll need 🛒: - White potatoes (300g) - Avocado (100g) - Onion (60g) - Olive oil (½ tbsp) - Red bell pepper (100g) - Lean beef mince (300g) - Grated cheese (60g) Seasoning:1 tsp smoked paprika, 1 tsp ground cumin, 2 garlic cloves (crushed), ½ tsp chilli powder, salt and pepper to taste Optional: fresh coriander, lime wedge, 10g gluten-free nacho chips (crumbled) Here’s how to make it 🧑‍🍳: 1. Toss the diced potatoes in ½ tbsp olive oil, salt, pepper, and optional paprika. 2. Place in the air fryer at 200°C for 15-18 minutes, shaking halfway, until golden and crisp. 3. Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and add the beef mince. Cook for 4-5 minutes, breaking it up until browned. 4. Add the onion, red pepper, and garlic. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened. 5. Stir in the smoked paprika, cumin, chilli powder, salt, and pepper. 6. Add the chopped tomatoes and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened. 7. Divide the potatoes between two bowls and spoon the beef mixture over the top. 8. Add avocado slices. 9. Sprinkle with grated cheese, fresh coriander, and optional crushed nacho chips (5g per bowl). 10. Serve with a squeeze of lime. Love, Ella 🧡 PS. I know it's not Tuesday 🤣 But I still titled it Tasty Tuesday so you can find this with the rest of them if you search for the recipes in Skool! Back to regular schedule for recipes next week!

I made these on Friday for my family and everyone loved them. The kids called them potacos and ate all of the potatoes I roasted and all the toppings, I was so pleased, we added refried beans because I’m a fiber nerd and they are good!
