I completed menopause. by the age of 42 due to POF. My thyroid has now calmed down during peri and full on menopause my thyroid was the worst and maintaining weight was about all I could do. It does get better. Going gluten free helped a ton! I am not 100% GF but, I try to be careful. Best of luck you can do this

Adrenal fatigue helped along by taking Thyroid meds and stress...diet does help but, am having a flare up now and it is awful body aches, exhausted, trouble focusing, and the hair loss was horrible at first but, I have gotten used to it now and am dealing with it

I love my coffee but, having adrenal fatigue I have to be careful..I drink Yerba Matte during the day at work as an alternative

I am making spaghetti squash for dinner tonight. I absolutely love it. My family is so-so with it. But, its good for them. There are several recipes out there try all recipes.com I also use the Shirataki noodles too once you get over the initial odor they taste just fine. Good luck

A truly great friendship that has evolved, wonderful job ladies!

I have Hashi's too and for the first time in years I feel like a normal person except my doc says I am hyper I don't feel anxious or any of the other hyper symptoms and I finally lost some weight. I really hope I don't swing back to hypo!!

I find that if you can walk outside at a track you can get in a really good workout. I actually do better walking outdoors at the High school track clears my mind and doesn't feel like a workout then I feel refreshed and eating a bowl of ice cream afterwards is out of the question. I have a lost weight with regular…

When I switched from Cytomel/Levoxcyl to Armour it took around 3 months to feel better. I think it is just the shift in meds. I feel much better now and hope to never have to go back to synthetic drugs

I agree with you on the whole foods and staying away from Glutens, soy and dairy. I only get to my classes 2-3 times a week but, with work and housework I seem to get in enough activity. I also have adrenal failure so, I have to watch the workouts I do so, I don't get to fatigued. Patience and accepting that this is a…

I am so impressed! Thank you for sharing...I also have Thyroid issues and am struggling with the last 20 pounds any advice?

I take Armour, DHEA, a good multi and two tblsp. of lemon fla. cod liver oil everyday. When I don't take the DHEA and the oil I have a lot more aches and pains and my muscles don't respond well. I don't lift due to injuries in my knees, shoulders and elbow. However, I do a lot of vinyasa yoga which is lifting my own body…

Great job!

I have battled Adrenal fatigue for years. The good news is you can get better, I use Isocort off of amazon that my Naturopath recommended. I would just take 1 or 2 in the morning and then again in the afternoon. You probably don't need the full dose. Another thing is try and cut way back on any caffeine or stimulant as…

check out skinny ms. slow cooker on facebook she has fantastic recipes

I like cinnamon toast on gluten free bread with butter, organic sugar and cinnamon...yum! Also, I take yogurt and organic GF peanut butter and dip my apples in it...filling and yummy

You might try to increase your calories and stay gluten free, soy/dairy free. Lots of veggies healthy fats like coconut oil. I eat meals that total around 1400 calories a day but, with the coconut oil/MCT oil and cod liver oil I take I seem to intake closer to 1800 calories a day

Interesting story. I am not an expert but, I think the thyroid problems after pregnancy are not long term??? I do not know this for certain. I have Hashimotos and have tried in the past when I think I am "better" and stop my meds. But, I end up being very sick and get back on them. Im on Armour now and feeling much better.…

This is what I do to conserve money on the grocery bill especially when I have 4-5 hungry teens at my house every day. 1) Don't buy junk food if you want cookies or brownies make them 2) make 1-2 large meals on the weekends freeze part of them for quick dinners 3) get a crock pot it can cook all day when you are work 4)…

I would cut back the adrenal you will know if you need it. However, sometime the Thyroid meds do tax the adrenals so, keep a bottle handy

Aberdeen Wa USA - born Raised in: Elllensburg WA, Kent WA, and Sacramento CA currently reside Seattle WA English is my native language but, I speak a little Spanish, French and Mandarin **just a west coast g:wink: al

Gluten free, coconut oil, tons of water, a good mult taken at night. I also prefer Armour thyroid over synthetic

I recommend Isocort you can buy it on Amazon 2 in the am 2 after lunch I still keep it handy.

I took Isocort for years made a world of difference for me. I also keep a bottle handy if I get run down. two in the am and two in the afternoon.

I used Isocort you can buy it on Amazon, my Naturopathic Dr. recommended it and also sells it. It works better than anything else I tried. I used two in the morning and two after lunch for several years. I now only take it if I feel i start to feel run down, I suffered with several adrenal fatigue for many years. Just…

Definitely try the Gluten free diet! It has helped me tremendously first with the inflammation and now on the tape measure. I still eat some gluten's periodically but, I try to go with non processed foods as much as possible. I also highly recommend adding coconut oil to your diet as well as taking your thyroid meds…
