Make sure you ask for Synthroid - not GENERIC, if you take Levothyroxine. My levels have been relatively stable since switching to name brand meds. I've been through generic, name brand, and armour. Whats the medication that starts with a C? I can't find it now lol Definitely agree with finding an endo, I haven't done this…

First time on a treadmill in YEARS this past week... I walked at 3.5 mph for about 5 minutes then ran (okay I know I'm slow!) for a mile at 5 mph, then walked at 4.0 for another 10 minutes, then did a 2 min 3.0 cool down. Then got off the treadmill and walked around campus for another 10-15 minutes before I got to class.…

I don't think so because once I burp several times it goes away. Its just annoying...

Willing to try anything... I'm really going to look like a weirdo now!!! LOL I ususally walk about 5 minutes and where ever I end up a stretch (for shin splints) and then I get to my run... I'll add this next time I go out. Thanks :)

Love 'em! I eat an egg almost every morning as part of my breakfast. I eat them anytime of the day. I looooove hard boiled egg whites, yet I'm not so fond of the yolks! Its the texture that gets me. One of my favorite go to dinner's for my family that everyone will eat - including a picky 6 year old and a "I can't stop to…

Get a cooler, load it with fruit, veggies, and other healthy snacks. Check out the nutrition facts if you stop at restaurants before you eat. Watch your sodium and drink plenty of water!!!

I upped my calories to maintenance for about 1-2 weeks then back down to the 1420 that MFP set for me. Reset my metabolism that way and never gained from eating more either. Also, pushed for running when I was very comfortable with my fast walk routine. Loving the running now, crave it even more than food :)

After having struggled with thyroid issues for 2 years with regular check ups to the Dr. Every time I went I had gained another 2 or 3 lbs... During that time I put 30 lbs on my already too fat body. The end of Jan 2012 I decided I've got to do what I could to help myself out of an early grave. So, I started weight…

Your doctor is an idiot. That being said, he probably just wants you to be aware of injury and you need tons of support. I'm about the same size as you now but when I started running I was about 220 and a 42DD. I wore a regular wired bra with a sports bra over to help keep them close :) It worked very well. I still run…

I've done it both ways. the first 3 months I didnt eat back my exercise cals. I struggled to keep my "diet" in check. I'm not trying to lose fast and started eating back my exercise a few months ago. I am loosing at the same rate and do not feel deprived at all. Each to their own I suppose. I want to have a "diet" that is…

Congratulations!! That is an amazing story! Awesome that you and your wife get to spend that time together too!!

I get the regular Italian bread because it has the least amount of calories. I love subway, I even had a meatball sub (with added tomatos, onion, bell pepper, banana pepper, and hot peppers) for lunch today :) I load up on the veggies and ask for no cheese no matter what kind of sub I get. Their salads are actualy a good…

Get back on your meds..... N-O-W!! This isn't something to mess around with soooooo many bodily functions are affected by your thyroid. Its a priority to take control of your health. Please, go see a doctor, maybe they can get you samples or something

If it fits into your calories and fat intake and its not going to eliminate a meal you actually need then I would go for it. I'm doing this slow (part of the eat more weigh less group) and have lost 30 lbs in 6 months. I have thyroid disease which makes every pound a battle BUT I'm averaging 5 lbs off per month. You've got…

Amazing! You should be so proud of all your hard work! U look great!

Finding time to exercise is hard for most Moms, I think anyway. Usually for me to get any kind of good workout I need to get up before the kids or after they are off to bed. I ran last night at 9 pm in the rain!! I guess there's a first time for everything :) I suggest letting something go and working in the time for you.…

I feel your pain!! My husband thinks "cooking" is dumping out some stuff on a plate and heating it up. I love that when I make homemade burgers to grill he thinks that he is the one "cooking" and all he did was toss them out on the grill. I have come home before from work/school and asked what the kids had for…
