  • I gained weight because i ATE MORE .. of course.. 1000%....thats what i am saying... just because you do cardio with a belt saying you burned 1000 calories does not mean you can go eat an extra 500-1000 calories.. I TOTALLY PROVED THAT .. spinning does not make you gain weight if you dont eat more.. that would be silly.....

  • I am also considering making my own mayo with olive oil.. I remember as a child I was taught how to make this. its basically like 2 egg yolks, some mustard,, spalsh of lemon and then you literally DRIP y DRIP the oil as it swirls in the blender.. you have to do it very slow or it will not work... and then you have an…
  • Ok perfect.. I get it.. ORGANIC good.. and 1 food at a time to see tolerance.. I would love to get back to yogurt and icecream one day.. but not yet... soon..
  • I have been reading alot .. and although PALEO says... NO DAIRY... but i am assuming it means ( no dairy you cant tolerate or sometimes i hear ONLY FULL fat dairy ).. so i am trying to undersand.. ad figure out anyone who actually eats ice-cream and which one they eat... alot of PALEO people love specific organic brands of…

  • I HEARD about that SALT.. the Himalayan thing.. my cousins who are cross fit trainers told me about this when they told me about PALEO in chicago.... I am going to find it somewhere online.. THANK YOU!!!
  • well ok let me rephrase.. forget the number on the scale.... i If i gained 10 lbs and lost 2 inches i would be so happy............. great , even better.....:)! usually though measurments on my body and scale go hand in hand.. so its eisier to just say 5 lbs.. it gives people an idea
  • I take armour everyday for 10 years now.. numbers always in range from this.. i was lucky enough for my regular doctor to be an endo... but he DIED 1 month ago.. really freaked me out because NEW DOCTOR is not endo. i am lucky my numbers are ok or i would go to a specialist.. but still i avoid SALT like the plague.. i will…
  • When you say IODINE.. you mean table salt? thats so funny because all my life i was told.. DONT eat salt, dont add salt.. blah blah.. i wonder if low sodium soy is ok.. because i have at least a tablespoon of that a day...

  • I spent the past 2 hours reading about what you said.. interesting how low carb might inhibit weight loss for people with thyroid issues... so like i will make sure to include MORE GOOD carbs... more berries and more green.. because low carb should not mean NO CARB it should mean NO BAD CARBS.. you know.. i feel great…
  • so ketosis is not good for people with slow thyroid.. is that what you are saying? interesting.. very kool... i take 2mg. of armour everyday..
  • the bmr and tdee its between 1200-1400 (sucks right).. its because of my height and age.. its been so great to keep my weight all these years.. but this time i am determined to not let it creep up. in the past i just feel like thin because i look great and then i let go of weighing myself and the scale and always in a few…
