I believe I may have had a leaky gut years ago, but has since been healed with so many years of clean eating, no grains, sugar, etc. I ate HFLCMP today. The macros are frightening, but I feel good. Kept calories around 1300 or so. I guess we'll see what happens on the scale tomorrow. I can usually tell if something is…

My doctor has tested for celiac's and I'm pretty sure for hashimoto's. I will check out your link, though! At this point, I feel like the thyroid issues were about 80% under control and then the hormone thing happened and all hell broke loose. I really feel like this is mostly female hormone related (perhaps made worse by…

Thanks for the reply. My adrenal fatigue (I believe) is mostly taken care of. I'm on 90 mg? Of armour. Supplements are I odine, vitamin d and Now brand special two vitamins. I was on cortisol for the adrenal fatigue for WAY too long and weaned off of it last year. The progesterone kicked my panic attacks and hot flashes…

I BARELY see ANY protein in your menu. When I eat that many carbs, I crave food all day and can never get satiated. IMO, you should be having a minimum of 4 oz. of protein in every meal!

To advise her to drink 2 gallons of water a day is ridiculous and dangerous.

Thanks for the replies. I think my diary is open, if anyone wants to see if there's anything glaringly suspicious in it. I know it's only been 2 weeks, however, you'd think (even with the restaurant binge meal), that I'd have lost some only eating 1200 calories/day. I'm not exaggerating when I say that I had been eating…

I have done 3 rounds of injectable hcg. It helped me lose about 16 lbs, which I kept off for 5 years or so, until recently when I began having a hormonal imbalance and gained a little bit back. I was DILIGENT about doing the diet EXACTLY the way I was supposed to according to Dr. Simeons. It helped me kick my…

Wow. This was NOT helpful to the OP at all. I am also hypothyroid and have some age-related hormonal issues as well. I'm struggling, too, but I do have some advice. Check what you're eating. Do you eat alot of wheat? Rice? White flour/sugar? My doc told me that alot of people who are hypo are sensitive to gluten and carbs.…

I also wanted to try incorporating coconut oil into my meals, but that's REALLY going to throw off my macros. I thought it might be good for my adrenals.

I do have a food scale and starting today, I will go back to weighing and tracking everything. As for my food diary, I haven't tracked anything in 5 months, so there's nothing there yet. I haven't been exercising. As I stated before, it's all I can do to finish my every day chores. I do clean house pretty vigorously,…

My doctor continues to push the "eat more vegetables and low fat" and exercise. Well, I barely have enough energy to get through the day, much less exercise. And I can barely function on low fat. I also don't believe in low calorie. Been there, done that as well. So I thought I'd try to focus on macros and not so much on…

Thank you for your replies. Heres' some background and details: I'm 42. About 5-6 years ago, I lost 20 lbs. doing several rounds of hcg. I ended at about 130 lbs. I quit all gluten, grains, white sugar, flour, processed foods, sodas, etc. Did really well eating high protein, low carb, very clean with the very occasional…
