  • As you can see, I joined in January and have lost 9 lbs..I have a thyroid problem though which totallys screws me.
  • Fun! I'm doing a warrior dash in oct!
  • I'm 5'9" but wanted to say awesome job, you look good!
  • Everyone is different. I took them in the past and it stayed off but then I had babies and have thyroid problems. FDA recommends that you only stay on them for 4 months cause after that it's no good for your body and it stops working. And I think you mentioned having a thyroid problem?? I'm a little surprised if you do…
  • I go to the Orangevale one mostly!
  • My husband is the same way. Although because of his work, he really does need the calories. But he refuses to eat strictly healthy. He buys twinkies, cookies..me being a stay at home mom I have to stare at it every day and he expects me to make a full course meal each night and it really does make it hard! Like others have…
  • You ladies look good!
  • I know a lot of people who use the P90x and love it, I want to use it myself but I hear you're supposed to be fit to do it. My sister loves her zumba DVD's.
  • I hear ya!! Between 2007-2009 I had to have the scan done and that's when I gained a ton cause of having to go off the meds!! Glad to hear it hasn't spread anywhere else though, I guess a good thing about thyroid cancer is it grows slowly. Mine was the size of a tennis ball and they couldn't estimate when I probably got…
  • Thanks ladies for the responses!! I was diagnosed in 2006, started taking Levothyroxin in 2007 and just in 2010 I saw a new Dr who put me on synthroid which I've been on for 3 months now and I feel a ton better. I do another blood test in May to see where I'm at. They haven't been able to get me into a "normal" level and…
  • I've gotta agree with the gum. I bought a ton and most the time I'm bored. So I'll just grab some water and tell myself don't even think about going into the kitchen and if it still sticks around, I pop some gum in my mouth. My problem is though that I love chocolate and when it's that time of month, I can't seem to stay…
  • Your body is different than everyone else's so you need to just be comfortable with where you're at. I am 5'9" and there was a time I was trying to go for 150 cause I had it stuck in my head that that's the image everyone wants. I will tell you when I weighed 160, even when I weighed 170, people told me I needed to stop,…
  • We should start a Thyroid forum lol. Hello all. I'm new to this site, just started today on my phone and I absolutely love it. I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in 2006. Thyroid treatment was done in the beginning of 2007, almost exactly 4 years ago. The Dr's have yet to get my numbers under control. I've only been hypo…
