  • there is a gluten free group on here. :)
  • We like Bob's red mill
  • I use the iron and iodine free version of the same brand vitamin. It is actually a pretty good vitamin based on what is in it and what is not. I am not sure about the active one. However - it has a lot of good stuff in it. Just make sure that if you are using it for more calcium it has enough calcium in it. Alot of multi…
  • YIPPEE cheers for you!!! Finally someone who gets it! Unless your Dr tells you not to... exercise it great in pregnancy!! Good luck in your pregnancy and heres to a healthy baby and future!!
  • I have hashimoto's and my endo suggested I take Kelp and Selinium - I took it and my antibodies leveled out.... I stopped taking it thinking I didn't need and and my antibodies went up 200 points in 2 months... I started taking it again and they went back down. So for me they seem to work.
  • Mine isn't how the gym treated me. Its just a pet peeve. When 2 people (who come in together) cant get 2 treadmills next to each other - take one on either side of me and then proceed to have a full blown conversation "through" me - i was going to offer my treadmill up and switch but I was already 35 mins into a 60min run…
  • BMI calculators are a crock of crap in my opinion. They do not take into consideration Muscle Mass at all. So someone that is 155 lbs with a high body fat % is going to seem bigger than a 155lb person with a low fat % -because of the muscle mass - (muscle takes up less space) but yet they weigh the same...I would rather…
  • Definatley have them do a free t3 and free t4- and antibody screen. My TSH was always within the correct "range" and was always told my by my PCP that my thyroid was fine.... until....... I went to an endo and she tested everything!! come to find out I have Hashimoto's - autoimmune disorder (antibodies off the charts high)…
  • I cut them in half and pop the seeds out under water in a bowl :) no mess. then you just strain the water out and put in a container to eat :) I am having some as we speak on my yogurt :) yummy!!! wish they werent so expensive though...
  • I second Bob's Red Mill. :) smells gross when preparing it but once it is in the oven it smells fantastic... and it tastes much better then the pre packaged kind. Also you dont have to toast it.. :)
  • I was on it for Hashimoto's - had to change to Armour..... Levo was making me sick. Switched to Armour 8mths ago and feel much better.
  • If you are drinking the sweetened almond milk ... you might as well drink regular milk... Have you ever seen the sugar and carbs and added crap in the sweetened versions!!! ughh That said I use the unsweetened coconut milk for protien shakes... but thats because I am adding fruit and protien to it so I dont need the…
  • i go to Planet fitness for cardio only and mostly in the winter or during bad weather... " i LOVE the outdoors...running, walking and cycling" however living in NH... that is a very small window... so the $10 a mth is great because I dont feel bad not going for the few monthg I am outside.... that said.... I think it is a…
  • http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/37-primal-paleo-support-group here you go :)
  • I use Tera's Whey Protein... I was using it with unsweeted almond milk or unsweeted coconut milk with some fruit blended in for breakfast... but now I only use it with the milk after kickboxing or lifting a few times a week. i dont rely on them as heavily as I used to but I dont see anything wrong with using them.
  • Love Cardio Kickboxing :) 1 hour of sweaty heart racing greatness 3 times a week (mwf), cycling or walking on the other days... however now that it is getting darker earlier back to the gym on T/Th/Sat for 1 hour of cardio or weight training circuits... the only thing that is set in stone is the 3 kick boxing classes a…
  • cant you try shortening your fasting window a little. maybe by an hour on each end... do 7pm until 9am ? or do 6pm to 8am if you have the most trouble at night with snacking.... I dont think that would hurt your results that much if at all... and do you eat right at 10 am?? There are different ranges you can do... might…
  • I have gone to both. A nutritionist and a dietician. The nutrionist was good with the food aspect of it. However I am VERY happy that I went to a Dietician because she was able to help me determine that I needed to see an endocronolgist as she suspected a Thyroid issue as my metobolism is in the garbage.... even with…
  • Swimming would be the best option....
  • I wish my gym had more benches.... and water out of the fountain that didnt taste like cholorine....yuck! i also wish people would stop staring at me when I am lifting..... yah I'm a girl and yah I lift heavy... take a picture it will last longer :) biggest peeve is the same as an above poster.... stop farting around on…
  • I work out at a planet fitness and there are PLENTY of Skinny people there...
  • I wasnt trying to be rude...... you might find more answers if you look at the other topics....thats all... and I was just warning you that there are people out there that are going to be rude. This is a very hot topic and there are people that feel very strongly about it. You will probably see both sides of the fence on…
  • I was actually just diagnosed with Hashimoto's in Oct. so I am in the beginning stages of getting the meds right. I have gone to a Paleo way of eating, no gluten, no dairy just lean protien, veggies, nuts, healthy fats and fruit. I have lost 6lbs so far in 3 weeks... so it seems to be working- I also have ditched the scale…
  • Please use the search function..... there are about 400 of these HCG topics that go on for PAGES AND PAGES.... this post is just going to open the flood gates for all kinds of comments.... get ready for the assault..... some people are going to be not so nice with this topic....
  • I dont know but in my opinion "opinion only" . Fast food etc..yah it may fit in my calories however... it wont make my skin, hair, nails stronger and healthier. It wont lower my cholesterol. It wont help me sleep better and it wont give my body the nutrients it needs to survive and stay strong... nor the fuel I need to…
  • I use Tera's Whey I love the acai berry one. or if I want a treat I use the choc one with a frozen banana blended up in it.... Or I will use the vanilla one with frozen strawberries... yum like a strawberry shake I mix it with unsweetened (almond/coconut milk) Its a little more expensive but you need less and it has less…
  • do you have a food scale? you could meaure how much in grams fits in one scoop... then you will know how many grams is in the 70 ml ir 60 cc
  • For me.. I'd say FRUITS!! I love fruits, I eat alot of them. My favorite is bananas and mangos.. there were times I ate alot and apparently it seems like my body doesn't know the difference with natural sugar and artificial sweeteners lol. With Bananas and Mango it could have also been the Carb content that hindered you. I…
  • you could do some strength training.... calf raises, wall sits (wall in break room?), lunges, squats bring some small weights into work to leave there and do some arms... not sure what your "break" room is like though... will get your heart rate up. and you body will burn more calories through out the day with more muscles…
