Hey. I've been hypothyroid for 26 years. I'm tired of using a specific medication, "diet", or doctor's program to lose weight (on which I have had some success, but still....). I want it to be a LIFESTYLE and not something that I "use" or "go on" and "go off". I am over 200 lbs, but tall, so people tell me I look great (oh, yeah, except for this huge protrusion under my boobs, people). I work out regularly and eat mostly low-carb, almost paleo. My biggest struggle is when I am out, either at someone's home or at a restaurant, or a social event, and there are large quantities of refined carbs available. Though I have gone the Weight Watchers route, and like the accountability, I don't want to have to join a program. I think what I need is a buddy that I can count on to hold me accountable (my husband like's to give me treats too often, and take me out to eat). Anybody want a buddy?
