Who has healed their thyroid or is healing their thyroid?
I went WAY over what I had intended to eat today. I'm not sure what's going on but I realized today that I'm not getting better with the thyroid situation so part of it is because I'm super upset that after all THAT it doesn't look like I'm getting better. So I'm sure that's at least part of it. If there is anyone reading…

Low carb doesn't work for everyone
Darn! I guess I'm one of them. I was so hopeful too. I have been feeling more and more like an engine trying to run on an empty tank so I need to look for something else apparently-- and I think it will be much more restrictive (like an autoimmune diet). I just want to let everyone know that this has been the most…

KetoCaNa and KetoForce
Somebody in this group mentioned KetoCaNa so I went to look it up. Apparently both these products supposedly help with exercise. I am not currently able to do strenuous exercise and honestly, it's often tough to just walk. If you are using one of these, I'm really interested to hear what you think about it-- especially…

Office lunches and snacks
I got the call this morning I scored the job I wanted. Yippee!! I'm only a week into the keto diet and so want to get everything ready when I start the job in two weeks. What do those of you who in an office keep at your desk/fridge for snacks? Do you have any easy peesy lunches you rely on? Any other tips are greatly…

Low calories, LC and filling foods
I just ate a huge salad of baby greens at 9:30 this morning because I was so hungry. I doubt this will last until dinner so I thought it would be awesome if we shared "go to" foods for situations like this. I haven't been so hungry like this since starting the LC 2 weeks ago. The only thing different today is a little less…

New Adrenal Fatigue Group
I did a search recently to see if there was an AF group here on MFP but surprisingly couldn't find one so I started one today. I have pretty severe hypothyroid and apparently equally severe adrenal fatigue. I'm starting a new job on Wednesday and I've been desperately trying so many things to help my thyroid (nascent…

What works for you?
I just tried Go Nutrients Adrenal Edge drops this morning for the first time. I have so much energy-- I did all kinds of things that were piled up here for the longest time: paperwork, housework, phone calls, etc. All done!!! What supplements, life style changes, herbs, etc., have you tried and what is your opinion of how…

General Discussion about AF
There are lots of people with thyroid conditions and adrenal fatigue seems to go along with that. I think there may be many people who don't realize they have AF and think the symptoms are due to low (or possibly high) thyroid. If you get thyroid medication and then do worse, you probably have AF. What happens is your…

What is adrenal fatigue? (from adrenalfatigue.org)
Adrenal fatigue is a collection of signs and symptoms, known as a syndrome, that results when the adrenal glands function below the necessary level. Most commonly associated with intense or prolonged stress, it can also arise during or after acute or chronic infections, especially respiratory infections such as influenza,…

High fat diet/higher calories
What is your opinion of increasing the fat intake if the calories go over the daily goal of 1300? Is it better to have more fat or lower calories if both don't seem realistic? I'm asking because I am still hungry after upping the fat. I increased the fat in the last 2 days based on someone's suggestion. I thought I could…

Ketosis and affects on Liver?
Hi there! This is my first post here and I'm so happy this group is here. It has already helped me so much. I just started on the Keto diet on June 18 following the Eat Bacon Don't Jog book. It basically is high fat, moderate protein and low carbs with exercise that is done in short strenuous bursts to build strength. I…
