3SGTO Biggest Loser Competition

Went to the Gym for a few hours and I feel OMFGasmically good after getting home and a fresh shower, need to start doing a quick workout in the morning before my morning shower and work too.

I slacked off during the weekend.

I will be doing my running and stuff again today.

Diagnosis confirmed and Rx started just today. Hypothyroidism. Sucks, but at least we got it figured. So, it will take a few weeks to start to feel any different, but hopefully I will be on the road to getting better.

Thanks to my honey for helping me research it and understand it and explain in English what it meant. :p

Btw, I hate it when I'm right (it was my first guess as to what was going on!). ;)

Ah - damn.

Kind of suspected that when I re-read your original posts about it, Vicki.

Like you say, though, you incorporate that into your life and deal with it - there's no end to that kind of thing, seems like - the other day I stopped to count the physical infirmities my wife or I could probably parlay into a disability claim.

I stopped at five.

Anyway, my daughter's two pregnancies have delivered the same verdict; she's diabetic into the bargain, but the HT-ism is just another fact in her crowded life.

Your life is kinda crowded, too, so here's predicting it fits without too much attending crap.

One good thing is, once you get squared away with meds, etc., a LOT of other little anomalies might clear up, too - things you might not even be noticing.

Here's hoping. :)

It was my very first suspicion, but I had some other things going on (which is why I truly went to the hospital). The weight gain and other HT symptoms was the second reason. Just glad to have a plan now. Hopefully it was caught early enough that no internal damage was done. Now I can make the adjustments I need to with taking the HT into consideration.

The doctor said I really won't see any change or feel anything for a couple of weeks, so I will be sure to keep popping in with the updates, Karen.

It definitely works for me, but I find that it's best to get you over the hump when you're stuck. If I reach a plateau in my diet, I try the IF thing for a while and that seems to confuse my body back into losing weight again.

working great so far for me , down to 236 as of tonight , ran two miles and then did upper body tonight. im going to participate in a local 5k this weekend..... i can do two miles pretty decently lets see what 3.1 brings haha
