  • Also, the Japanese do morning exercises - I was going to look into this for myself. When I saw some of the moves it looked very low impact. [/quote] That is Tai Chi. There is many different fitness levels even people who are bed ridden maybe able to do some.
  • I was never tested prior to that for microalbumin. You probably know a lot more about this medical stuff. All I know is my kidney specialist said Metformin can damage the kidneys. That is the information I was trying to share. Thanks for your input.
  • I'm a bit jealous- salmon and moose. I've never had moose, but heard it is very good. Great scenery.
  • Breakfast: Juiced: apple, pear, celery, cucumber, red pepper, cubella or frying pepper, cilantro, garlic, kale Divided into three servings Lunch: Coat mushrooms with olive oil, Portebello mushrooms baked for 15 minutes round side down @ 425 degrees F. Turn over, coat mushrooms with olive oil again, fill with sauce, meat,…
  • My Dr. suggested I go GF and dairy free. I've had a lot of problems with soy also. I think I have that Celiac disease guts fell really bad for a long time. I've had lots of tests.
  • Me too. None of this stuff is good for me but bread sour dough and rye, pasta, pretzels, candy, doritos, etc. I just found out about this group today. And learned I need to be GF about two weeks ago. The only information I have found is on the web. If you know of a good website a can look out to find further information…
  • If you have some toe tapping music to dance or move to. Also, the Japanese do morning exercises - I was going to look into this for myself. When I saw some of the moves it looked very low impact.
  • I have the same problem, so I asked my weight dr. 1, In a sturdy chair with feet flat on the floor walk your feet out while sitting in the chair. You maybe able to take a couple of steps out, then back. Repeat as many times as possible. 2. Walk back and forth in your house/apartment, so at least you are in the air…
  • I asked my dr. that too. I'm hungry after exercising. You should only eat your calorie allowance. Do not add in the extra allowance for exercise.
  • ' I am also on a low dose of phentermine and topamax. Dry mouth has been a problem prior to getting on these medications probably due to diabetes and other medications too. I don't know. I drink a lot of water, I just can't drink enough.
  • I was wondering about that too. Is blue corn genetically modified?
  • That has happened to our family. Try to count your blessing health, family, etc. it will help to be focused on the positive instead of the crappy circumstances. Prayer always helps. If you have a support system this will also help.
  • I agree with the above MFPs. Some people make themselves "feel good" by putting other down. Unfortunately, it happened to you. I;m so sorry. You should be proud of yourself and your boyfriend. Thanks for the service. What branch is he in?
  • i agree that would be helpful, but I'm not aware of that on MFP. I have suggested it but I guess more people need to suggest it. I have a One Touch Ultra Smart meter where I can track calories, protein, fat, carbs, exercise, insulin (pills or liquids), dr visits, if your ill, having your period, blood pressure, weight,…
  • Go ahead and toot your own horn. You accomplished so much. Everyone is on their own goal and you inspire others. Thank you for sharing your story. I hope you continue on to meet your goal. You look beautiful and healthy.
  • I had a chiropractor who really listened about my thyroid condition suggest that I become gluten and dairy free. He is the only one that has listened as of now. It is so frustrating when doctors don't care or want to listen. Not even discuss using Armour. All I get is NO! There are no homeopathic/natural doctors in my area.
  • I had a chiropractor who really listened about my thyroid condition suggest that I become gluten and dairy free. He is the only one that has listened as of now.
  • I agree it is dry. It is frustrating.
  • Correction I'm taking 50.
  • No dr in this area is homopathic. I checked out the couple of web sites quoted above no luck. I agree something needs to change.
  • I am taking 30mg of the Levothy. I ordered the whole capsules. According to the information on the website, the capsules can be divided and taken 1/4 or 1/2 of a capsule. Also, it is cheaper that way. I'm going to start out by taking one pill a day. According to my test results, the total T3 is 126, the free T3 is 3.0, the…
  • I just ordered mine today. I cannot find a dr in my area to prescribe the natural stuff. The endo. dr. won't order the natural stuff. And according to her, there is nothing else out there except the synenthic stuff. Do you think I'm stupid, naive, uneducated, etc? I'm having more and more issues. I went to a health food…
  • The Armour product - Do you need a prescription for this? Where do you purchase at?
  • My dr. said the same thing only one blood test per year for thyroid problems. I have insurance. If the doctor is trying to monitor if the dosage is correct and you are still having thyroid issues, wouldn't it be a good idea to have your thyroid tested again after you have been on the medication for a period of time (maybe…
  • I didn't know I could order labs myself. Thanks
  • My nutritional dr said just to put in the calories, etc for the entire fruit/vegetable. I like juicing and getting the nutrition into my body. I have lost weight with juicing and I do have health issues that makes losing weight very hard. What kind of juicer do you have? Do you recommend it? What do you juice? I have a…
  • Got medical attention today. Thanks for all your help.
