Healthy with Hashimotos

takahiroki

I'm 20 years old [21 in a couple weeks!], 5'11" and I've never been a thin/healthy weight kid since I was diagnosed with Hashimotos/Hypothyroidism at age 11, but I've finally decided to do something about all the weight gain it's caused me over the years! I recently moved 1000 miles away from basically everyone I know and care about, and decided this is the PERFECT time to focus on myself. I've lost about 17 pounds since November when I joined MFP, making me 170 pounds, [which is more than 30 pounds gone since high school!], and though I've sort of 'plateaued' this past month, I'm *hoping* to get very close to my goal weight of 145 by July when I go back 'home' for work.

I'd love some friends to stay motivated with. I just started Insanity today, so hopefully I will make it through with some great results! I was growing bored with Turbofire.. If anyone has Hashimotos/Hypothyroidism or similar stats, I would LOVE to see your progress/how you've been going about losing weight. Overall, simply taking care of myself and eating right, I've never felt better!
