The most low GI breads are just good stoneground wholemeal.Look to make sure there are no added sugars.I love Rye breads too which are better than eating wheat all the time.I also recommend having protien sandwich fillings as they will balance the relatively high GI of the bread!

Welcome honey!I too am a shredder lol I recommend her book too."Master your Metabolism"it has a couple of pages on PCOS and how to manage it.I wish you every sucess!:smooched:

Well your BMR number is the minimum your bod needs for simple functions,like breathing,circulation, brain function,cell repair,digestion etc.We can't expect our bodies to work on any less!I think exercise is even more crucial,especially as muscle burns more calories!Exercise (especially strength training)will get the…

Oh DEAR LORD!We trust these people with our health!:mad: That is MADNESS!I have heard it all now!I am not surprised she is confused.Medical "proffesionals"actually don't get a lot of training on nutrition unless they specialise and I think this is a prime example.They are just human and don't know EVERYTHING!

Brilliant Shannon!I am so glad I found this place it's so inspirational.Keep up the good work I am right there with you!:smile:

Hey Merbee,thanks for your input and you are a shining example:flowerforyou: What a star!I am glad you are doing so well,it ain't easy but more kudos to us!If we can do it anyone can!I would happily eat all day long,compulsively but I know I can't!I blame a lot of things on my hormones but I know my weight is one thing I…

My other suggestion is to join online thyroid support groups.It's a very common problem and I don't think even some doctors fully understand it as the endocrine system works in mysterious ways!It is good to compare notes with other sufferers and realise you are not alone.Docs tend to give us meds and send us off but it's…

It may well be harder with a badly damaged or non existant thyroid but we gotta stick at it girls!It really is no excuse lol

Thanks Kelynn!:smooched: True iamladybird,you are so right!

Tell her it's not a diet as such it's more about getting well and the weight comes off!I eat small regular meals every three to four hours which peps up your metabolism.My doc said I had the metabolism of an old lady pre treatment and I starved for years and stayed at around 156!I have realised this was not the way!I gave…

Its a complex thing that little gland!I can't speak highly enough of Ms Jillian she is my inspiration!READ THE BOOK!

Noooo!Bless her,that will not help her at all!If she eats so little her body wil start to eat at its own muscle tissue to survive and her metabolism will drop badly.That is not sustainable and it will make her miserable.I am on 1500 cals and it is bearable and I have enough energy to live!No one can get enough nutrients on…

Dynaband!Green for begginers,purple for intermediate and grey for hardcore.they come with a leaflet of exercises and they are basic bands(no handles)but they wil fold up real small.

Hey there!I started the 30 day shred on the 1st too,love it!I have ordered the yoga meltdown also and am going to try and fit both in!

sounds like you are doing really well!you are eating good food,are you getting enough cals?Also get your thyroid checked.I got diagnosed a year ago as I was fit as a fiddle but exhausted and couldn't figure out why.
