i've been using the iphone app to track calories to try to get to the bottom of some unexplained weight gain. I've been struggling with low thyroid symptoms and working with doctors to explain some weight gain. Two years ago i was at my perfect weight and 25 pounds lighter. I'm now tracking calories and doing 30 day shred to try to rid myself of this added weight while exploring my health with my doctors.

Beyond my weight loss and health journey, i work in health care as a therapist in an inpatient psych unit. I'm 28 and married to a wonderful man who claims to not notice my weight gain. My main goal is to start seeing the scale go down, to get my health in order and to fit into all of my cloths. Please feel free to add me as a friend

    Hey Welcome,

    I'm new here too, lost 10lbs using MFP in the last 5 weeks and I have 10lbs to go! I still need to get the shred dvd but will happily join you once I catch up!

    I did -- and I also suffer with an underactive thyroid. It can be challenging, but I've managed to keep it off for almost 2 years with my workouts and nutrition. We should become friends. :smile:
  • I have polycystic ovarian syndrome, that can cause you to gain unexplained weight and have a hard time losing it.
