I don't want to be a skeptic, but you need to ensure you haven't cut back on your fiber intake before you assume that you have Celiac disease and that cutting back on gluten was the correct decision.
A lot of gluten-based products are also high in fiber, are they not? If this is the case, the lack of fiber in your diet might be the contributing factor to the reduced number of bathroom trips as of late.
Regardless, I hope this works out for you. Sounds like you're headed in the right direction!
- savemylife 16y agoOn the contrary, constructive skepticism is always welcome. I actually have the same concern (less food in == less food out, right?) PS: never, ever, thought I'd be discussing my bathroom habits on the Internet.

- chipsy 16y agoGrains are actually vastly overrated as a fiber source(agribusiness marketing at work). On a per-calorie basis you'll do far better with green vegetables. Or if you want calories in your fiber you can eat fruit and nuts instead - just make sure with the nuts that they haven't been tainted by gluten products in processing.

- grandalf 16y agoHah, maybe if his gluten has come primarily from a high fiber cereal or a laxative. He's moving his bowels >5 times per day, which would require significant effort to consume enough fiber to trigger that through fiber alone.
