  • lol... I don't really hate myself... But there is a part of me that does... or at least hates the way I've treated myself. Maybe i'm being too honest about that part but If I didn't know I was worth the effort i wouldn't be doing this. Believe me there are plenty of things I need to work on and i am aware. I've just been…
  • Honestly, I can't believe how thoughtlessly mean people are. I haven't had anyone say anything to my face since High school 20 years ago and I wear a 2X size H bra. In school though... girls used to follow me around and moo at me and I wasn't even that overweight. I don't know what's wrong with people but you can be sure…
  • Don't stop trying. Read everything you can about nutrition and try to utilize the things that will work for you. For me it started with white flour. I avoid white flour products. Then sugar.

However, there's no evidence…
  • Welcome! I joined a while ago, but didn't stick around so I'm really pretty new also. Hope you fnd the support you need here. Everyone is really nice and helpful.:happy:
  • Ive been on Levothyroxin for a little over a year now. When I was diagnosed I got so excited thinking the weight would just fall off somehow. It didn't happen like that:noway: ... and it seems there are tricks to this weight loss business that take some getting used to which I'm just learning. I wish you the best of…
  • Some reading I've done suggests that Soy can effect the way the meds for hypo are absorbed and so soy should be avoided within an hour of taking them. Otherwise it is important to get enough iodine in your diet to prevent the negative effects soy can have on the thyroid. Using only idodized salt and taking supplements can…
  • I'm wondering if something like Boost, or even a diet drink like Slim Fast would be a solution to calories when I feel nausea. I like that brown rice idea too. That's very palatable. =)
