Possibly insulin resistant, I had same problem, and weightloss is extremely slow or non happening. Have to keep my calories and protein up as I will def stall out if eating less then I should. I even take Victoza shots to help me with weight loss, and it is a slow process. Eating enough is very important while low carb for…

Read info on website Stop the thyroid madness

Thanks love, same here, everyday is a gift :-)

Eat more protein, drink 8 glasses of water, Check out atkins diet, it works when you are stuck. Ill be a friend if youd like to add me, good luck

I have enormous weight loss resistance, tackle it by going low carb. You can eat more calories, but stay under 30 g carb, but eat 100 g protein and 100g fat. Drink 8 glasses of water. It will start moving, do this for two weeks then increase the carbs slowly but stay under 100g

Lessen carb and sugar and increase protein and fat and ensure they are in all meals Drink your water, and make small changes to exchange the high carb/sugar snacks for something that doesnt create more cravings That stuff is like a drug. Hard to overindulge in some slices of lean chicken, a pickle, sweet little grape…

Yes, similat problems, am still getting mine weekly to load to an acceptable level. Within two weeks symptoms lessened, energy returning and feeling better all around, less brain fog etc. I was tested for antibodies and confirmed to have PCA Parietal cell antibodies, which makes intrinsic factor needed to absorb B12. Iron…

An hour of aquafit three times a week and two days of water running. Used to ride stationary bike and walk an hour a day but cant with knee cap fracture. Never liked the pool but with rehab getting me back in and finding a great instructor I am loving it

Again I gained on 1200 - 1500 cal whole food low carb plenty of water and exercise plan. Typical. Frustrating. Never give up!

Wrong dietician for you obviously...although you may not like what they recommend they should at least take your preferences and incorporate them in a plan. Move on

well...I binge on healthy veggies, veggie soup, chicken...go figure Having eliminated most processed food and crap from my life, its all I have left to binge on and I still do. Last binge had me downing four bowls of zucchini soup, and some more heallthy things till I couldnt eat anymore. The feeling is the same but it is…

No need, I get it. You and all he others on this thyroid hel ride are not alone. It takes a shift in the way we deal with things that takes a while to get. Be vigilant in your search for the right dosages. Make sure they test your free T3 and cortisol. Get the supplement specific to optimize everything. Check out dr mark…

Weight loss is harder but still possible, key is to get the right tests done to see what you need to function. Have had Hashimoto's thyroiditis for 13 years. Started after pregnancy problems levelling years but now at 175 mcg, just cant increase dose more as needed due to afib problems. I think there is a problem with the…

Sounds like he's honest and regretted the break up. Also sounds like he kept his distance while you were dating another. This dudes interested for sure...the driveby stalking bit is awkward, but sounds like it is probably easily dealt with when he knows if you are interested in resuming relationship or not. This guy sounds…

Can't do caffiene and dont like too many flavored teas so these are my two daily go to's : Numi Organic rooibos & various organic decaf green teas

Have had Hashimoto's Thyroiditis for about 8 years. Have been on 175 to 200 mcg. Atrial fib problems have complicated things and I have to stay on the lower range or else I go into afib too much Important to not just check TSH level, get the Free T4/T3 and rT3 checked, as well as cortisol and adrenal There are a few…

Just a dab of nutella on a small cracker with a slice of banana is bliss

What about not engaging in this topic with them, it is your own business and you need nobody to approve What matters is how you feel about you, and by the way you describe it that must br awesome! Dont waste your energy on the negative, shrug it off and focus on what matters, you go girl!

I want to lose as much as is necessary to get into a healhier range. Ideal is 68 lbs but 40/50 lbs would be fine too, it's so far away and has been so long ago since I was there, it is still an unknown concept. I want to lose the bits that drag me down and hold me hostage, peel off this suit of armor. SW 235 CW 218 GW 150

I'm with you! Hypothyroid is making this weight loss excrutiatingly difficult, so might as well entertain myself with a goal. Had gained 35 pounds in pregnancy, thyroid problem started, never got back to anything less then 200 since then. I've dragged myself back on the weight loss wagon after broken knee cap stopped my…

Real eggs, real vegetables, real fruit (take with some protein to lower the bloodsugar spike) 2% greek yoghurt, almond milk, it's all good. I do not eat bread, pasta, rice or potatoes as part of my daily meals for a few years now. But do use them sparingly once in a while. They are a trigger food for me to eat too much,…

Think of something in the past that made you feel happy, on top of the world. Tony Robbins has a good example of how to change state of mind, watch it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SALc0u-bDDM&feature=youtube_gdata_player
