I posted here before about my wife's struggles with her weight.
Well, here's a real humdinger. She's been having problems with her stomach for weeks, and the symptoms seem to be consistent with an intolerance for wheat.
About two weeks ago she stopped eating wheat. Her stomach issues appear to be slowly clearing up, but it's not conclusive yet.
In the meantime, she's gained 4 pounds! In two weeks. And yes, she's writing down every bit of what she eats. (she is a research engineer--there's no question about her ability to record data)
Has anyone ever heard of something like this?
FYI, it's not as if she's a petite woman who is trying to maintain an unreasonably low weight. She's 5'6" and weighs around 225# or possibly more. Her diet consists of a lot of fruit and vegetables.
