  • I usually warn they new staff about the 10 pounds everyone seems to gain the first year they are with us. Lots of food in our breakroon combined with the fact that we must actually sit all day to do our job. Ususally in our industry you are up and about more, but our specific discipline has you sitting in one spot all day,…
  • Check out your cortisol levels, estrogen levels, and Ferritin( storage iron) levels - if any of these are out of whack, the thyroid hormones do not work as well as they are supposed to. And track your symptoms, they are sometimes a more accurate measure of adequate treatment. I feel better when my TSH is under 1, yet the…
  • I eat rice baby pablum. It is very high in iron and easy to digest - I have Crohn's and IBS so my tummy can be very finnicky. Red Meat doesn't agree with me any more.
  • There are headphones specifically designed to be worn to sleep in. They are ear buds called Bed Buds. Some models are sewn into a headband and some are just a soft ear bud. I was going to get a pair so that i could listen to my relaxation "tapes" ( I have an Ipod :P) in bed to go to sleep. They looked fairly comfortable.…
  • Birht Control Pills - all kinds - worked for me in that taking them meant I didn't want sex EVER - so therefore impossible to get pregnant lol. They worked on exH as well because sine I had PMS 35 days a month - he wasn't interested in sex either!! Finally did NFP/condoms for about 7 years - only 2 planned kids!! Tweaking…
  • I am 5'3" so there are not that many guys shorter than me!! I have dated men not much taller than me 5'5" or so. I always was only concerned about at least being able to put on a pair of heels and not towering over they guy so I figured anyone a couple of inches taller than me was fine. But like I said, it is very rare to…
  • Medical Laboratory Technologist working in Anatomic Pathology. I cut up dead pieces of people - when you have something removed like a mole or your appendix they send it to me!! I transform it from a dead piece into a thin slice on a slide for a Pathologist (dr) to read and diagnose.
  • It might work after all having people in the same position and with the same goals as you often can help everyone acheive their goals. If there was a "graduation" to a sister facility for those who acheived their goal where they could maintain the friendships and support developed in the "fat" gym, I think that would also…
  • I have also suffered from a lower than I would like drive - and I can tell you the best thing is to just do it!! Even if I don't always feel really horny at the start, I usually get into it in a few minutes of kissing and foreplay. I have to think and plan that its going to happen so I don't let it be too long between…

  • If your Estrogen is high it will also interferes with thyroid hormone function - so your TSH is high because it is trying to compensate for the amount of estrogen. See if you can find and endocronologist to help you get all three working together like they are supposed to - Adrenals, Thyroid and Estrogen.
  • Even in highschool when I was 135 pds at 5'3" - I did not have a "thigh gap". It's on my list of wanted cosmetic surgeries once I get to goal. I don't care whether anyone finds it sexy or not - its a practical chafing matter. Always must wear panyhose or some such anti-chafing garment under skirts - its annoying. And yes I…
  • Look at it like the regulations on smoking that came in years ago - new packaging requirements, new rules for selling to underage people, etc. Since unhealthy choices affect the whole society in terms of productivity, health care costs, infrstructure costs(more hospitals, bigger seating etc) I think that these regulations…
  • I would also have him evaluated for possible digestive issues - Some IBD and IBS sufferers report problems with Extra-Intestinal Manifestations such as Excema or Psoirisis.
