Have made a healthy lifestyle change almost 2 years ago. I've lost 40 pounds very, very slowly. I haven't lost in over 6 months. Went to clinic for check up and blood work and instead of better it gets worse.. First my thyroid was elevated then I got meds for that.. After that my triglicerides went through the roof..took meds for that.. then it went up to over 300 and they took me off meds.. now, without meds its back down to 144. My bad cholesterol has always been low 78 second reading 78, now, 6 months later they are 189! and, I've had to add another pill for my high blood pressure..ugh!

My dr. beleives with the amount of exericse I am doing and dietary changes I've made I should still be losing. My BMI is 30.0 which means I'm still obese..

I am trying so hard NOT to be obese..I workout 6 days a week/ watch my calories and I still have crappy bloodwork.. Very frustrated!

Going to an endocrinologist on Friday so wish me luck
