Hypothyroidism and weight loss
Hello. I was recently diagnosed with hypothyroidism and adrenal fatigue. It's been a couple weeks since I began hormone/thyroid/adrenal therapy.

Question: Macronutrients
Question: Any suggestions on where to set my macronutrients? My current goal is to lose fat while building lean muscle mass. Currently I'm set at 30% carb, 35% good fats, 35% proteins. In about a month I plan to start lifting a lot more weight but for now I'm just trying to lean out a little before I focus on building…

Want to cheer each other on?
Feel free to friend me if you like. I'm all about swapping support as I find it helps tremendously (that and I've met some absolutely wonderful people in the past).

Starting again and looking for wingmen/wingwomen!

Seeking some fun loving fat fighting friends
I didn't gain 20lbs alone and in misery, why should I lose it alone and in misery? Seeking like minded folks that have some weight to lose and want to enjoy losing it almost as much as they enjoyed putting it on. Feel free to friend me. For some reason my app won't seem to let me. Hope to see you around the feeds!!

Eat before/after workout?
What's your take? I usually do a protein meal/smoothie right after but I wonder if I'd get more out of my workout if I ate before. Would carbs be helpful? I'm pretty low carb but I don't rule them out. Also, looking for health/fitness minded friends to learn from. Friend me if you'd like. My app is filled with glitches and…

Wanna swap support?
Looking for MFP pals to cheer on and to cheer me on. Recipes, tips, rants, temper tantrums, celebrating meeting goals, it's all good!! I can't seem to add friends myself (keep getting errors) but please feel free to friend me if you're looking to add another "trying to live better" cohort. Thanks and have a fabulous day :)

Looking for MFP buddies!
I am a happy go lucky, dog loving, junk food abstaining, highly motivated to live a healthier life style and drop 15 lbs kinda lady. I'm looking for some MFP friends that I can swap support with. I didn't pack these extra pounds on alone so why should I shed them alone? Let's get this done!
