I've always been tall (5'10") and on the heavier side of the scale. When I was a kid I got picked on all the time (looking back at photos I wasn't heavy at all).

I was diagnosed with Graves in 2008 at 42 years old. But in looking at older blood tests from 2005, I had Graves back then and I think I've had it even earlier than that due to radiation exposure while in the military from the mid-80s.

I've gone gluten free before although I don't like to. My husband and mother-in-law have celics so it's been pretty normal in my family for over 10 years to cook GF.

So now I've resorted to a recumbent bicycle which seems to…

I've been off meds for about 1.5 years now and my norm seems to be settling in at .1 I'm hyperthyroid but now I'm having a hard time losing weight. I went on a 1200 calorie a day diet for 3 months and only lost 8lbs. I should have lost around 20. So I'm working on jumpstarting my metabolism to achieve better weight loss…

I'm new to this website/app. I have Graves disease but have flipped to Hashimotos. I've gained so much weight now that I want to jumpstart my metabolism again without stirring up my Graves. Nice to meet everyone.
