I usually need at least 8 hours a night. Last night I went to bed at 9:30 and I was still not ready to get up at 7:00 am...

A higher TSH means you have an underactive thyroid, the higher it gets, the more hypo you become is the way I understand it.

Thanks for explaining. My doctor said that I have thyroid antibodies present, so that means I have Hashimoto's? The sore throat makes sense. I've had a sore throat for the past few weeks, but it only hurts when I yawn. I couldn't explain it, but this could be a cause? You have explained this way better than any website…

Yes, most doctors are clueless - take mine for example! LOL I got my text results back last week. My thyroid was at 5.75 right before Christmas, and now it is at 7.34. I know it took a drop because of the 10 lbs I gained, but is it a significant drop over the course of 3 months, does anyone know?

I have dry skin ALL the time!! Winter is when it is the worst. My legs are fairly bad, if I am wearing my capri yoga pants, and cross my legs, I leave flaky skin behind on my pants. My elbows are very pointy and get sooo bad sometimes they hurt to wear clothing. I just apply lotion, lots and lots of it! My face gets dry…

Thanks all for your support and suggestions. I am in the process of trying to find a new doctor, but unfortunately there is a major shortage up here in Saskatchewan, and therefore I have to take what I can get. I am hunting daily for a new doctor but unfortunately have not succeeded yet. Thankfully, we have free health…

Total 1253 Carbs 157 Fat 43 Protein 88 Sodium 2025 Sugar 65 Went way over on my protein and sugar intake. However, I did have a banana and an apple so that accounts for most of the sugar. I drank a LOT of water - not sure how much but probably between 8-10 glasses. Exercise - ran on the treadmill for 1/2 hour. Then I did…

Total 1441 Carbs 130 Fat 24 Protein 49 Sodium 1,309 Sugar 32 I did have a beer at dinner, however, I only joined the group today, and I didn't know, so no more from now on! My bf also came home with some No Sugar Added bread from the grocery store last night, which was super awesome of him :)

I'm a little late in joining, but this group is perfect for me as I am also on the NO ADDED SUGAR kick right now. Need to get my weight down as my thyroid has gone wonky and I am gaining like CRAAZZZYYY (almost 10 lbs since before Christmas!). The only way to stop is to change my lifestyle. READY AND GO!

Yesterday, a co-worker gave me a big piece of rice krispies squares because I did him a favour. I had two small pieces of it, and then gave it away to a different co-worker!

Congrats! I tried my grad dress on last Christmas and although it was a little tight, I could still get the zipper done up! After 6 1/2 years, that's not too shabby!!

I listen to a bunch of different artists, but one song that I try to listen to every run is "Better Life" by Keith Urban. Its not a SUPER fast paced song, but it just really gets me going :bigsmile:

I'm in!! I am planning on going for a run and then to ball tomorrow, so yay for ball on Wednesdays!

I had a dream I went to weigh in and i was down 4lbs and was the "biggest loser" for the week... Not the case in the real world, but I still went down 0.8 lbs so thats better than nothing and better than a gain. Shredder, it'll come, just keep up the hard work I know you are doing!!!!! Allie, have a blast in Vegas!!!…

Goood morning everyone!!! After a gain the first week, and no change the week after that, I am FINALLY FINALLY FINALLY back down!! AND it's my TOM this week and I am bloated....soooo I must be doing something right!! YAY! LW 170.3 CW169.5 I think this diet is starting to work!!!!

I just bought some new ones last week. They are Saucony.... We have a store in town where they watch the way you walk and then fit runners to your needs. I tried on about 5 different pairs of 5 different brands till I found the right pair :smile:

I have been really slacking the past couple of weeks, but my bff found a 6 week meal plan for us to do and I technically started it today. I had to substitute my lunch as I didn't have the groceries and she didn't send me the menu until 11pm last night!!! I'll go after work tomorrow to get the groceries that I do need…

Well, this weekend was a bust!!! I definitely ate wayyy too much crap!! But I was out of town, and it really was our only option :( But its gorgeous out and I am ready to rock the workouts this week AND back on the diet train!!! HERE WE GO!!!! Tonight I plan on doing JM shred and then going for a run after :)

Well I've got good news and bad news. I'll start with the bad news...I didn't lose anything this week :( But the good news is that I DIDN'T GAIN. Sooo I am the same.... at 172.2 I am confused. On saturday and sunday I was down to 170.3...How possible is it for me to gain 2 lbs thru the week and then the weekends are my…

Hey everyone. This week has been bad bad bad... I have NOT been eating well at all :( :sad: And not to mention my lack of exercise. I have however gone for two runs. Tonight I am going runner shopping as my current pair is EIGHT, count that, EIGHT YEARS OLD!!!!!!! I am also going to buy some cleats for slo-pitch which…

I really needed this. I feel like all I've been doing is eating and eating and eating for the past 4 days. Next time I WILL HALT. I'll go read a book, or have a shower, or work out, or talk to my roommate now that she is home :) THANK YOU for this.

Hello everyone! Hope you all had a great weekend.... Allie - GREAT job on the spreadsheet!! Just wanted to say that I weighed in again on saturday morning after having two days or gourging on food, and now I am 0.3 lbs away from where I was sitting last week!! I am soo happy to be back on the weight loss train again and…

SW: 170 CW: 172.2 Shredder, we're one and the same. I used a new scale to measure me so I am going to go with the fact that last week's scale was WRONG!!!!! Got 4 workouts in this week so far, going for two more!!!

Thank you! I did a photoshoot a couple of years ago, I have about 200 pictures of high heels and fishnets, it was sooo hard to choose!!

Shredder, our board totally rocks!!! I am off to bed to catch some zzzz's!!!!! Have a great night everyone :drinker:

You and me both. On friday I was down to 170, and on Monday I was up to 174 (had my yearly check up). I don't understand because I didn't throw the rules out the window on the weekend!!! Soo, just keep tryin, it'll come eventually!!!

I can't actually remember the last time, so, just now is my answer. Thanks :flowerforyou:

FOUND!!

Soo, today I had my yearly check up and I am MAJORLY disappointed!!!! They weighed me in at 174!!!! My starting weight was 175, soo basically I've lost ONE POUND!!! HOW DOES THAT HAPPEN? Just a lil frustrated today, I WAS down to 168, and then the scale just kept going up, if it goes up any higher I am going to break it!!…
