Absolutely! Between the thyroid meds, the Prozac, the healthy eating, and the working out, I was MORE than good to go! I do take a vitamin D supplement. My doctor recommends 400 IU every day, but I double that... haha.

I can't wait until I'm able to do what you've done. ^_^ Also, no joke, I have the same bedding!

Thanks for the welcome and support, everybody! I'm pretty excited to keep moving in the right direction. And I'll definitely be updating. :-D

I don't know, I'm kind of a creeper too. ;) Stalking profiles for inspiration and such.. haha. I'm actually really excited. A few months ago I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism and was warned about my high cholesterol and troubling blood sugar levels. I thought, I'm too young for this! So at that point (and with the help…

I have hypothyroidism - I was diagnosed a few months ago and have lost 25 pounds as the result of eating well, working out, and taking thyroid hormone replacements.
