@donna25trinity I am a big believer in sleep! They also say that poor sleep will work against attempts to lose weight. I have recently been going to sleep with sleep meditation music and it works really well.

@Caroline_slowandsteady I also have Hashimoto but I never was aware of thyroid flare. I just take my medicine in the morning and that is. I am just wondering why I don't have the same issues2

If I had logged the ice-cream late snack BEFORE eating it, I would have realized that my attempt to keep an unexpected total reset of pre-logged supper within bounds WOULD have been able to accommodate it. I didn't log it until next morning. If I had KNOWN it was still ok ... both Inner-Instant Gratification Monkey and I would have been satisfied with the outcome at the same time.
Inner-IGM "presumed" that it would have put me over ... and since it had be "deprived" of what a normal home-assembled pizza serving would be (and normally that kind of supper would have been on a day when the rest of the day's eating could have easily accommodated the larger serving) ... reached for ADDITIONAL snack-items as well just because .....
Inner-IGM has been a bit more active than usual on multiple fronts lately (not just food related) lately. Gotta take a closer look at possible redirect strategies that will work for both of us.3 -

Sleep (!) may be the most important habit because:
1. Easier to cook & eat wisely & regulate food intake when tested.
2. More likely to em exercise or even for longer if rested.
3. Better ability to handle stressors effectively when tested.
I created a new sleep habit based on my doctors recommendation- (off devices & tv 2 hours before bedtime, read (non device) book the last hour before bedtime - it worked GREAT!
However my husband goes to sleep before me & sleeps longer in AM & I kissed having my phone. However, I’d noticed I woke up exactly 7’hours after I fell asleep, whenever that was, so I relaxed about the whole deal. I get enough sleep.
My late afternoon walks definitely help me fall asleep along with no caffeine.
Thanks!

A good night's sleep for me is generally between 7.5 and 9 hours. Any less and I'm tired and have the wrong mindset. Any more and I just seem to feel tired all day.
Prior to 2014 I did not sleep regularly at all. Since then I'm a real stickler about proper sleep after realizing the benefits. Of course some times it isn't possible but I try to limit that to one night very infrequently.
I totally can relate to this @WhatMeRunning , wen I was In a role at work a few years ago I was super stressed and thought that was why I was such a mess now I look back on it with my recent experiment with early rising I realise that the stress back then was a huge part but what the main issue was the lack of sleep due to the stress..So long story short ur right we need to be super disciplined about sleep.

today was a bust all the way around. I worked both jobs yesterday and today, and I'm just exhausted. I'm also the bookkeeper for my little 1-woman massage business - and with today being payday, I just couldn't get my books to balance. I know I'm just tired and stressed out.....but I'm beyond frustrated! I'm tired, I have a headache, and didn't sleep well last night. Hopefully tomorrow will be better!
Hope u are feeling better @Mrs_hoffer xo1 -

I average 7 hours of sleep per night according to my Fitbit. I am usually in bed by 8:30 and up at 4:30. I get up at least one time to go to the bathroom.
I put away my phone at 8. I then get on the floor and stretch.
@jmu1965 oh niceeee we are on the same routine he he the 4.20am rise and in bed at 8.30am is wat i tried last week and it seemed to be really good for me! Hubby walks in the door from work at 8pm as he is currently doing the late shift so I wld be lying if I said it was tempting to stay up with him but I'm staying strong. Lol! Xo1 -

Im asleep by 10:30 at the latest and up at 6:30. The last time I remember sleeping through the night was when I was pregnant with my first - 13 years ago. I do wish I could stay asleep once I fell asleep!

At least I got in a 5 mile run this morning. 🌫🌬🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️
Sleep. I'm usually in bed by 10 and get up just after 6. I tend to wake up every 2 hours and get up and use the bathroom. Most of the time I'm able to go back to sleep right away, unless I start thinking about something! It probably isn't a good thing, but I like to fall asleep with my mp3 and earbuds on. I set it so that it automatically shuts off after 30 minutes but actually I usually fall asleep in less than 10 minutes. My mp3 has an fm radio so I listen to a talk radio station and it puts me to sleep. When I can't get back to sleep in the middle of the night at least I have something to listen to rather than just laying there, and if I'm lucky it will lull me back to sleep...
@slimtastesbetter sounds like u hve found what works for u.. Hubby also needs to hve something on to sleep to so I hve also gotten used to having the tv on to sleep to. What ever works right lol!! Xo1 -

Today was hard. I felt like I was starving! I have been eating pretty well and more lightly than usual. For some reason I was just hungry all day! At one point I felt like I wanted to cry because dinner was going to take 45min and I just needed something in my stomach. Little Dramatic Ha ha
I think its probably more stress related then hunger.

Sleep can be a real problem for me. My sleep problems and afternoon or evening exhaustion was largely what made me believe I needed to retire from my job and focus on my health-- even though I really did not have any kind of diagnosis that supported my belief that something was seriously wrong with my health, just such a struggle with fatigue. It is better now that I have retired, but in several months, my Fitbit sleep score has only once been an ¨excellent¨ and twice been ¨good¨, generally the best I get are ¨fair¨ and occasionally ¨poor.¨
@ideas1 so pleased to hear u listened to ur body gave it wat it needed and it worked!!!! How lovely 4 u!!! I am about to go back in the workforce after being on a 2 year maternity break and I am hoping I dnt go backwards with the afternoon night time exhaustion that u mentioned.. I am hoping this break, being mindful not to over do it and my new habits with make the whole work experience a more pleasant one! Xo0 -

I have bad sleep habits, even though I know better. I usually shower right before bed, which does relax me. However, then I'm on my iPad in bed (NYT crossword, kindle, MFP) until I'm ready to go to sleep. I usually don't keep my phone in the bedroom, so even if I go to be late, I'll usually be able to sleep anywhere between 6-7.5 hours/night.
While my husband was out of town this past week, i kept my phone with me in case of emergency. The issue was alerts and texts were going off starting at 6am. :-(

@Winner_in_Life Hashimoto's is a very common disease but it seems like there can be very different experiences with it. I have had this disease for almost 10 years, but I am still in the early stages of it. My thyroid is still fully functional and most of the time I have no symptoms at all of Hashimoto's. But every now and then, usually triggered by sickness or vaccines, my immune system remembers to attack my thyroid. When that happens, I feel sick both because my immune system is activated and because my body is under attack. I've been told that eventually, once my immune system wins and destroys my thyroid entirely, that phase of the disease will be past and I'll just have to take some thyroid medicine. Sounds like that's where you are. That gives me hope that one day this will be more manageable.0
