Hi Tracey.
About me:
Name: Carina
Nationality: Danish
Age: 35
Family: A 9-year old son, my boyfriend aged 36 and our 3 cats.
Diagnosis: Bipolar Type 2 and thyroidism (sideeffect from medication).
Medicin: Eat loads and loads of medicin; 6 different types on a daily basis and more than 6 different types when needed
Weight: Gained 25 kg. As many as 5 kinds of my medicine has weight-gain as sideeffects - great, just what I need!
I would like to be Your diet buddy. My goal is to loose at least 10 kg - hopefully 15 kg.
How active are you in Your everyday-life? Which restrictions do Your illness cause on a daily basis?
Looking forewards to Your reply.
Carina
P.S. Sorry for my English - long time since I went to school.0 -
I lost weight last year and want to lose some more (including some I gained).
At times it is a breeze, and other times it is a push.
I dont know what the deal is with my head - just trying to make the most out of what I got.
Send me a friend request if you want.0 -
