    Has an actual group page been created for this? Or is it just this thread?

    Ask Jill OP @jm216

    It may be easier to track progress if it is a group

    Spent last 2 years sorting out my thyroid meds (went on NDT (Natural Desiccated Thyroid) and T3) and in November I went off HRT (Hormone Replacement Therapy for menopause). So now my thyroid seems good, menopause is mostly behind me and I am ready to shed these 25 pounds I was gifted in this process.

    Current: 180
    Goal: 155
    Every Day: Track calories AND go to the gym or for a walk!

    Thanks for the challenge! :)

    I also copied and pasted my results to a memo on my phone..... It's easier way then remembering what page that you posted. Then, I'll just copy and paste the memo here every week with my updated results.

    My goals this week:
    to listen to my stomach to tell me when I'm hungry... not my brain or my eyes.

    to sneak in exercise while I'm giving the house a tornado tidy--- marching while folding the laundry
    Dancing while cleaning up the kitchen

    To walk the dog around the block 3 times each day.

    What are your goals this week?
