Hi, This happened to me before I was diagnosed and it was expected to stop once i started on medication. But over two years on and I still lactate even though my blood tests come back ok. I dont lactate all the time it seems to just come and go with no real pattern. GP is aware of it but all other tests for anything else…

Hi, I have an underactive thyroid and I am taking Levothyroxine. I was diagnosed a couple of years ago and gained around three stone taking me over twelve stone and on a 5'3" frame it was noticable!!! I tried several different things to lose the weight (unsuccessfully) and my doctor said it would be harder than someone…

Hi, I have an underactive thryoid and I am on Thyroxine. I have so far managed to lose 45lbs. Its hard and I only ever eat back about half of my exercise calories as I know that my body doesn't burn them off during the day as well as a "normal" person might do. Its been hard but it is achieveable. Dont give up, You can do…

LMAO you know what I ment :)

My daughter is taking me to Turkey for 11 nights, all inclusive. My plan is to swim and walk alot and enjoy the food in moderation. I am not going to stress about gaining a few pounds, I can work my butt off and lose them when I get back. I have never had a holiday like this before and I am going to enjoy it. You know you…

I have donated my eggs four times to couples having fertility treatment and delivered my friends baby single handed.

My mum always drummed into us as children, dont forget your manners, please, thank you, sorry and excuse me. I now drum this into my children. Good manners cost nothing and go along way.

I love a good old fashioned book, cant see myself snuggling in bed or laying in the bath reading with a kindle in quite the same way. I agree with you about the feel of a book. I have a box set of Roald Dahl books from when I was a child and they have been read by me many times and by my children but I wont part with them…

Dont give up, you can do it!!!!!!!!!! And always weigh your self on the same set of scales as well. Try swimming. Also have you measured yourself? Sometimes you dont lose weight but your body will be getting smaller. Add me as a friend if you like :)

Yes!!!! At first it felt like I was always logging in and checking things on the data base and it kind of took over my life but in a good way. It has made me look always at the calorie content of the food I buy and I dont waste as much food. For example, before I would just throw pasta in the pot and cook for the family…

Yes!!! I have always believed in ghosts but more so since one visits me every now and then. And no I am not mad!!! The first time I was laying in bed by myself asleep. I woke up facing the edge of the bed with a whole heap of bed space behind me. I felt someone sit on the edge of the bed then lay down next to me. I…

Hi, Welcome to MFP x Feel free to add me as a friend and good luck on your journey :)

I find it really hard. My boyfriend compliments me all the time. He will tell me I am beautiful and amazing and I just look at him and have no idea how to react. Usually just laugh it off and say "yeah right". I have no idea what he sees at all. Compliments in any form are hard to deal with.

Where abouts in Essex? Thats where I am from

I was up at 6am just to get to work!!! Going swimming tonight but not till about 9pm. Hope you have a good day to :) Good Morning my fellow Brits :) Sitting here with my strawberries and natural yoghurt. This is the earliest I have been up in a while - It's my first day back at uni today. Hoping to fit some exercise in…

My children are amazing but then I guess I'm biast. My son turned 13 at the weekend and my daughter is 18. I have gained a lot…

If I deprived myself from chocolate totally I would end up binging on it, so if I have calories left I will eat a small kitkat or bag of maltesers. That way I get my chocolate fix and its easier to maintain. I'm still losing weight so for me, its all good. My adivce, go on and treat yourself

I'm in the UK too. Feel free to add me. Also wondering if anyone in the UK is from the Loughton/Epping area (thats in Essex for those that dont know lol)

I'm pretty certain I'm going to get gagged at work if I say one more time "do you know how many calories are in that?"!!!!!

Yep! I lost loads of weight when I kicked him out but a underactive thyroid led me to pile on the pounds. I have also met the most amazing man and I adore him. Totally addicted to MFP and driving everyone who doesnt know about it crazy lol

Welcome Im from the UK as well and you can add me as a friend if you like. Good luck and you will find loads of support on here :)
