Has the diet choices helped you yet?

Has changing your diet to gluten free with or not low glycemic diet helped anyone yet with feeling better and/or losing weight?

I'm working on low glycemic - yes, I think it helps me feel better because my blood sugar isn't swinging all over the place, and I'm not craving so much.  I've dropped a couple of pounds, but I've been walking most days (until I got sick) and the way my weight bounces up and down, that's probably a fluke.

I started going gluten free yesterday, which will be very hard for me.  My last test result came in and my endo thinks my levels are "perfect".  I have been feeling pretty good, but my face and eyes are still pretty puffy. A symptom that I've always assumed was from being hypo. Several people have commented on it in the last week..  Sometimes I get hives on my chest and neck after consuming a lot of wheat products and my stomach has been bloated.   I'm thinking maybe going GF is a good idea for me and worth the effort.  My brother found out he is gluten in tolerant.  Does anyone know how long it takes to get out of the system?

I have done every diet under the sun, and would loose maybe 5-10lbs..and stop loosing. It is my full hearted belief that if your hormones (thyroid) is not "normal" then you pretty much can starve and not loose anything.
