  • sent you a friend request. I'm on daily and track everything so anyone can add me if they want. Having active friends helps keep one motivated to do something daily as well as it's good to hear and see about sucess when your own progress might be slow. Good luck to all. v/r Rico
  • College is better. Go Jackets and of course THWG!!!! sister is a bulldog alumni so it's been a rough decade!
  • Right there with you although you can add the Raiders to that list! However, I believe, THWG!!!
  • concur with McMillen, I log coffee, protein drinks, tea, etc as water intake but do count the calories under whatever meal that was. sodas, milk, alcohol on the other hand I don't. your choice
  • A lot of solid advice. My 2 cents, don't remind him or get a gift. Your wedding day is a few months away and should be the focus for you both. Small intimate dinner ls the way to go. Congratulations on your upcoming wedding ( l have been married for over 18 yrs)
  • Hi Christie, You have a very busy life! You can add me if you like. 45 yrs, 4 kids, 2 dogs, active duty Air Force. Good luck. v/r Rico

  • I'm older so more old school metal: Maiden, Priest, Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, and 2 Brazilian bands: Sepultura and RDP. However, I don't mind the newer stuff when and if they actually play it in the gym. Korn, Slipknot, etc
  • Originally Sao Paulo Brazil! now Tucson, AZ
  • I take Armour as well 105mg (90 + 15), metformin 1000, fortesta as well and doc trying to figure out why my cortisol level is still high (undiagnosed for now). Was on 175mg levothyroxine but changed to armour in december and doing a lot better
  • Feel free to add me if you'd like or anyone else that wants to. I log in numerous times a day and keep track of all food and exercises. All of us can always use some more friends and motivation!
  • That is the right frame of mind to have. In the same boat as well. Good luck to you and add message sent. v/r Rico
  • my wife is from Lewiston, and I got married there in 94 at Holy Cross (at St Croix st). Does that count?
  • Feel free to add me as well. I'm on the system 2 to 3 times a day, log in all my calories (I have to provide a weekly log to my chain of command) and could use the help and or advice as well and once in awhile, a reality check! thanks.
  • sent you a message with a doc in Tucson that I currently use. v/r Rico
  • I have been diagnosed with it the past 3 years...up to 175mcg on synthroid a day and losing weight is extremely diffucult... there is a group that talks about hypothyroid in MFP.....(hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism)..just do a search and join in for advice and support..good luck. v/r Rico
  • i think you look good and i would notice you...keep at it if that is your wish, not what others think.
  • I have been wondering about all those who switched also. I'm up to 175mcg on synthroid and it seems like this level kind of works but I struggle with losing any weight despite low calories and moderate exercise. I moved from miami to tucson so hopefully the new doc at this base is open to using armour.
  • To all, thanks for the tips and suggestions. Trying this now as I have been directed by my base to do this. I eat below 1500 calories, almost no carbs (except fruits); no sugars; no breads, and exercise (elliptical and walking 4 to 5 times a week) with not much results. weight comes and goes but I believe my meds are…
