  • I agree with the responses of once a week, same time every morning in the same spot, after potty and stark naked. That's exactly what I do. In addition, I'll measure 2 - 3 areas every week (waist, hips, and thighs). Sometimes, the weight won't change right away, but I'll lose like a 1/4" inch in these areas. When that…
  • I have an issue that results in a thyroid problem and I'm trying to work through it. I have autoimmune thyroiditis which is like Hashimotos. It's an immune disorder that causes an attack on the thyroid causing it to malfunction. Mine results in hypothyroid symptoms even though lab results say normal. I have a goiter and…
  • That's awesome! I would love to lose 10 pounds in 5 weeks. I'm on pace of 10 pounds in 8 weeks. But since it had been 0 pounds in 2 years, I'll take that!

  • Lemon pepper tilapia and broccoli. About to get it ready now. :-)
  • I started a gluten free diet at the beginning of this month after becoming inflammed with eating whole wheat. I have an autoimmune thyroid issue and I discovered that there's a strong link to gluten sensitivity in being a part of the issue. Since I went gluten free, feel so much better and lost 6 pounds this month. I…

  • BBQ Chicken Breast on Udi's Whole Grain and Broccoli. And an Udi's Chocolate Chip Cookie for dessert. Feeling pretty satisfied. :-)
  • I'm in the same boat. I don't get as much protein as I want in my meals, yet at the end of the day, I'm not hungry enough to eat a chicken breast or fish. I've been shopping for a good gluten-free whey isolate protein drink. So far, I tried a product called Whey to Go and another but the name escapes me. Something like…
  • Kapope, I would highly recommend trying it. We really have nothing to lose by trying it. I was told to try it for 2 - 3 weeks to see if it makes a difference. I felt the beginnings of a difference after 3 days. I lost a lot of puffiness. As a matter of fact, I didn't realize how inflammed I was. I was so used to looking…
  • I've been battling Hashimotos for two years now. After going through about 10 doctors/endocrinologist, I'm turning to a naturopath for treatment. Through research, I've been able to help myself more than any traditional doctor or endocrinologist has. They don't look at the immune system, but rather the thyroid only and…
