in Introduce Yourself
Hello people :-)

My name is Chloe, I'm 21 and I'm from Ireland.

I've been trying for years to lose weight but I've always struggled.

I will admit to being quite lazy due to over thinking rather than just doing!

I absolutely love food, I prefer a vegan way of eating and I love trying new food.

And of course, I have hypothyroidism disease (major booooo)

Thanks for listening, I need friends!

Chloe xoxo

    I have an underactive thyroid too! It runs in my family. I'm Joanna, from the US.
    It's great to see someone else with similar struggles who is also adapting a veg lifestyle.
    I'm vegan so maybe we could trade recipes. :)

    Hiya
    I have hypothyroid disease too, have done for 20 years (so Im much older than you!) I sometimes think I only have to smell food to gain weight.
    I have about 30lbs to lose, that puts me at the top of my 'ideal weight range' but thats good enough for me.

    This is my second time round here, I wandered off the trail but had lost a fair amount. Its all back now though :cry:
