Your levels of T3 and T4 can change over time too. When I was diagnosed last year with Hypo, my Dr said if I wasn't doing anything for weight loss (ie-working out or eating right) I would be over 200lbs. I was only 160lbs. The constant fatigue and 3 hour naps in the middle of the day aren't fun, but your body will adjust…

I bought a excersize kit from Walmart once, and it included a slim band(not the surgery lol). It's a simple rubber/foam band that wraps around your middle and it velrcos in place. I sweat a hellavalot more in that area when I wear it. I think's it's suppose to suport posture and help sweat out water weight. It came in a…

I do that on average twice a month. I see no reason to deprive myself of pizza. I love pizza! And since there's a Dominos tens minutes from my apartment, and when my roomate offers to pay for the whole thing, I have a hard time refusing. My roomate doesn't like what I get on my pizza (tomatos/feta/peperoni) so he usually…

I love all the "skinny girl" costumes out there. My next mini goal is to loose 10lbs by Halloween so I can be a unicorn, but the costume idea involves a skin tight, white body suit! There wont be anywhere to hide in that!

After graduateing High school, I gained the "freshmen 15" twice over, and have been carrying it around since, and then some. It's not a lot, but at 5"3' it's noticable in anything form fitted. And I LOVE haute couture fashion, and am in Fashion design school. The biggest thing that motivated me is being able to fit in…

I was diagnosed with a Hypothyroid about a year ago, and my doctor actually recomended the protein from soy. Over whey or red meats, soy is better for my body because it will absorb soy better. When I brought up the soy/thyroid connections, she said it's different with every person, but Hypothyroid's low iron makes getting…

Unfortunatly, big thighs and wide hips run in my family. Genes can contribute, at least in my case. I have been having the hardest time losing fat around these areas. Doing the usual squats/lunges/glute kick-backs/running and biking will help. Going to a weekly RPM class(indoor cycling) has really helped me trim my…

I have a membership through GoodLife, and the Bodypump class they offer is intense. You use a "working load" amount of weight, and the instructer take you through a one hour weight routine. I had a blast the few times I've gone, and I have a girlfriend who goes weekly. The energy is always so high and everyone is having a…
