Thank you for sharing you look amazing

I mean did you alternate days and take a day off.

Feel Free to add me. I am starting tomorrow and hoping I can get trough the entire time.

way to go. I am starting the 30 day shred tomorrow. did you alternate days?

Feel free to add me. I am not 100% paleo since I have not cut diary out totally since I still eat eggs, yogurt (greek) and have skim in coffee.

Hello and welcome. Im sorry you are going through this. Can you possibly see and endocrinologist?

Congrats!!!!

congrats way to go!!!! I am also just starting out I haven't done the whole 30 cant seem to give up dairy completely.

Great Appt. I also had my apt yesterday and had all my levels come back within normal range and no sign of cancer in U/S. although I am focusing on my A!C number since I am pre diabetic I started eating clean 3 weeks ago and for the first time in 4 yrs I have some energy....However whenever I am outside in extreme humidity…

Welcome I just started and still learning a lot.

I am happy to say this appointment went very well. First time in four years. All my numbers look amazing. I even lowered my AIC number which was my goal. I finally have some energy and left feeling heard. I was nervous going into this apt due to weight gain but my endo feels I am on the right path. Plus my ultrasound…

welcome

I am starting to realize the only thing the dr cares about is the suppression. but I need a way to battle all the symptoms. I am starting to think most of my symptoms are from the carbs I reduced my carb intake (per my primary for another reason) and I haven't felt tired in 2 weeks (no nap needed) and starting to feel a…

Thanks everyone I did join the thyroid awareness page on fb. I just had my labs done for my apt next week so hoping to see some more improvement.

You can do it. I am hoping midweek this week once dh is back to work from vacation I can add in some workout dvd I haven't done a workout for a little over a yr so this should be interesting. We can do it together....

Thank you for the warm welcome. I have been going through the threads to find more info. I have not gone off dairy yet...not sure I will 100%

My apt is coming up and I am happy to say my dr did write me a new script for all the labs. now I just have to wait and get results

thank you I also do not have a thyroid. I just made my apt with my endo and asked to have labs added before I go in to see him. Hopefully the numbers can shed some light on why I am so tired all the time with no energy

thank you everyone for responding. I just came back from a new primary dr visit. I have been searching for one that will work with me and my other dr's I have to say I like her so far at least she is willing to run labs and tests. She is going to check for celiac and a full blood workup. She did state that my weight is now…

I am hoping once the weather breaks I can get back to walking outside. I felt better when I walked each morning before starting my day.

That is exactly what my endo keeps telling me just accept the fact im just going to be heavy. Well I am not healthy and isn't that the main goal. You can be thin and not healthy would you tell a thin person to just accept it. I will say I have been taking my multi vitamin on a reg basis and it seems to be making a…

Hi I noticed you mentioned going gluten free. I would advise you to check with your dr. I went gluten free (felt great and started to lose weight immediately) however when I went to my endo the first thing he said was you shouldn't go gluten free unless it is required due to medical reasons. He stated you could do some…

the short answer is no. I have had side back pain along with everything else for a few yrs now I have learned to live with it because no one knows what is the cause. I have had mri,ct,and u/s done to examine multiple causes but nothing is ever found. My husband belives it is due to the extra weight I am carrying around…

I totally get it. Hindsight is 20/20 if only I knew how hard it would be to lose weight and feel healthy.....oh well looking forward As for salt intake I finally caved into a craving I have been having and had Chinese food which is loaded with salt. I am hoping with extra water,green tea and some cranberry juice it does…

HMM I wasn't dx with it but I also had 2 parathyroids removed. I started my multivitamin today so I will see if it helps with the muscle aches, etc. I just know over the past weekend my legs and one arm was throbbing. hoping the vitamin helps

Meeplemuppet-- it is so frustrating. I know I am retaining water and I have asked the dr about a water pill but of course his answer is not necessary. I really need to watch the sodium intake I think that is where I am retaining the most water from. I am addicted to my scale LOL I cant go longer then a full week without…

great loss. I don't know what is wrong I tracked me food for 2 weeks and somehow I lost 2 pounds week 1 (water weight) and gained 3.3 pounds week 2. I am just confused and frustrated

No scan he gave me a script for an u/s which I have to schedule. I did gain weight and he thinks that is why the number s went up. I asked him about the t3 converting and he said he found no evidence to support that as a reason......I am thinking maybe if I lost some weight I can lower the dose... I am going for a new…

MeepleMuppet I have tried low card low sugar high protein but it is hard to follow. Can I ask how much carbs/sugar you take in with a low diet? I agree on the facial hair I think I keep the salon in business with the amount of waxing I get done. I just want to get under 200 by may I don't think it is realistic at this…

Oh wow what a crazy experience. Glad to see you are doing better. I will not accept that this is life and I need to get use to this as my new normal. I am more determined then ever to get my health and weight under control. It is a journey not a race and it will take time.
