Nutrition for Gaining Muscle
So, if I wanted to eat to promote muscle gain, what types of things should I be eating? I am completely new to this and have no idea where to start. Should I be focusing on a certain percentage of carbs, protein and fat? I'm getting ready to turn 50 and realizing I'm losing a lot of my muscle tone I had when I was younger.

Feeling Down Today
Well, the scale went up again today. I know that I shouldn't let a number on the scale mess with my mind, but it does sometimes and today is one of those days.

I just had blood work done with my doctor. With the results, my doc thinks I might be swinging toward being hyper. I’ve been hypo for over 9 years. This is a totally new area for me. I was wondering how symptoms differ from being hypo and hyper. I still have hypo symptoms. Can that mimic hyper symptoms? I am so confused.

Ack! Soy!
I know that soy is a big, big no no with throid issues. Until reading a recent posts, it never occured to me to check the foods I've been eating for soy. I keep asking myself how I could be so dense to make that connection. So, I have been investigating the food in my pantry and fridge. I am so disappointed with what I…

Lowering Cortisol Levels
I know that cortisol levels are related to stress levels. One of my docs told me that my cortisol levels are high and that I wouldn't really be able to loose much weight until they come down. However, she was not very helpful in explaining to me how to go about lowering my levels. Any suggestions would be greatly…

Hello Out There!
I joined about four months ago. I wish I had looked for additional support then, but just didn't do it. Now, I'm back to where I started. It's a new day and am ready to start anew.
