I had a huge thing typed out and then hit done instead of post! :disappointed: Steps: 9048 Past weight: 183.6 Current weight 185.2 We had take out for supper last night and I'm thinking it messed with my weigh-in. I seldom eat takeout, and certainly not the amounts of simple carbs I consumed last night. I'll was comfort…

Thanks all, for your answers. I was initially put on a very strict basically ketogenic diet along with biodentical hormones. My diet has progressed to the point that i am allowed to eat whatever I want. Currently I'm staying away from refined/simple carbs. I was just curious if anybody else had dealt with adrenal fatigue…

Check-in 4/13 steps: 8220 I only walked out to the mailbox twice. The rest of those were from tidying the house and putting laundry away. Getting out of weekend mode. :blush: I think I will just keep doing what I can do on the step challenge. It still is alot more than what I was doing a month ago, and that's what is…

It's kind of ironic, as I'm more active now than I was before the while stay at home. But I am walking out of some health issues that caused debilitating fatigue. I feel like it's a real blessing that the timing is what it is, because I think I could have sank into some severe depression had I been dealing with that along…

Check-in 4/11 steps: 6824 4/12 steps: 5242 I feel like I've about hit my max on the steps for my current health and energy levels.

Well here I am half way though the day and the only goal I've met is getting an hour of rest this morning. I am going to have to get busy!! I'm hoping to somehow get my steps in today, but I've opted not to do the core workout video since Im feeling rather drained today.

That is completely awesome! I have often thought I would like to one day get into running. However, I know now is not the time, since I'm still walking out of thyroid and adrenal problems. I would think adding running would make my adrenals go crazy! However I respect and admire people who do run. It takes perseverance and…

Routines. I love my routines. :) I'm a planner, and I thrive off making plans. Sticking to said plans is harder. Anyway, my current morning routine is: Get up, Wash Face, Put contact lenses in, Drink Water and Take Pills, Comb Hair and Get Dressed. Then out to the kitchen. Clean Kitchen, Empty Dishwasher, Empty dish…

Hello again, everyone! I was quite busy yesterday, and I want to give a proper introduction here when I'm not so rushed. I am a 30 year old female. Have struggled with my weight throughout my life. I've been 90 pounds heavier than I am now, and had a VSG at my top weight. I never want to get up there again. I tend to be an…
