This is a funny topic to come up today... Yesterday evening I commented on my profile "Today... my wine is calorie free". Clearly it's not, but I do believe that you have to enjoy the finer things or you will go MAD!! I can't ALWAYS get in extra exercise to allow for the calories in a glass... or two... of wine, but I try…

I am really frustrated with how week I am! I tried a wall-sit today to see how much strength I still have in my legs... and I couldn't last 5 seconds. Also tried a pushup today and I could only do 1.... Previously I could do 20 and I know I could do much longer with the wall sit. I'm concerned for the bone loss that can…

thank you for the information! I will definitely keep your suggestion in mind - I have a list of questions to ask the Specialist when I see them!

Wow you guys! Thanks for all the info! i'm glad to see I am not alone! I haven't been diagnosed yet because I haven't seen the specialist or gone for the thyroid scan. My GP just double my beta blockers dose, and I have to say, thank GOD for those little pills! How I feel now is a FAR cry from how I felt before. I will…

It's amazing to hear your story, thank you for sharing! That is exactly what I am experiencing! while I was RELAXED last night, i suddenly felt like I could almost hear my heartbeat it was pumping so loud and so fast - I checked and I was 123 bpm. I'm just starting this journey, and I'm glad to be able to share that with…

I was just diagnosed with Hyperthyroid after feeling like I was loosing my mind - my body has been betraying me for the last few months but more so in the last few weeks. I went to my doctor crying because I thought I was entering early menopause or had blood pressure problems or worse. I hadn't been sleeping because I…

GOOD POINT!! Haha, nicely said... and I agree

Iron isn't necessarily in abundance in protein rich foods, more so in red meats and your leafy greens, dark greens.... A good multi-vitamin should top up your protein requirements. Even as a vegetarian I still find that my iron levels are good.... but I take a multi :)

You could also change up your run each time you do it, one day go for distance, the next do intervals, the next do hills.... give yourself some variety and shock your body a bit. I found some gain as well, and like one other poster I am stuck around the 145 mark. Also make sure to do some stretching and hydrate well. Your…

I think Curves is a great way to get started - but you have to think about the kind of environment that motivates you and that YOU feel most comforable in. I'm a solitary workout person who is very focused on MY space, headphones on, totally into what I'm doing, but I have lots of gym experience. I also like a quiet gym,…

I've never tried the Silk Almond Milk - only the Blue Diamond brand. I don't mind it at all and think it's the closest comparison to Skim Milk that I've tried. I do prefer the Vanilla flavour. :)

MODERATION!!! Completely denying yourself something can be more problematic in the long run... you will crave it and binge, or you will get so frustrated that you "Can't" have something you want, that you'll just give up :( and none of us wants you to give up! How many calories is one treat? .... then balance it out by…
