Seeking motivation and new fitness friends!

I think that there are a bunch of us here that will motivate you!. If you hadn't been through enough, now your body has reinvented the definition of hyperthyroidism. That is enough to make someone want to eat enough chocolate to last a year. LOL. Seriously though my prayers are with you.
Listen there is one thing that I learned about dieting. It's a marathon, not a race. It's hard work, but you can do it. I found it so easy to gain weight, because like you I was getting depressed and had anxiety, it was just harder and harder to be healthy
And living in our society where people are judged on the outside more than the inside, doesn't help.
But you are strong, How I know this is? because you are here. Everyone here is a support. I will give you any information you need about food that I know, I am a Culinary Chef.
What I did discover is that changing your attitude about food and maybe changing the type of food you eat can help. I understand how incredibility hard this is. Like I said, I am a Professional Culinary and Pastry Chef by trade. But please if I can help with anything, or just be your friend, that would make me happy!

Hi all!
I'm new here and have Hashimoto - an auto immune disorder which leads to hypothyroidism, which leads to ... weight gain! I need to lose a lot and have just started Qsymia as well. My doctor is super supportive but I won't see her again for months.

How is everyone doing? Where are you getting meal ideas?

Thanks!

Hello, feel free to add me. I was also recently diagnosed with hashimotos. I need to lose at least 50 lbs
