  • Restart with a twist!

    Well, after finally going to the doctor in frustration when I was consistantly gaining, I discoverd I have a thyroid problem. Kind of took a break while I was trying to get that in order. Didn't totally go off plan or anything but didn't focus on it as much as I usually do.

    SO, now that I'm taking something for THAT I'm HOPING that I can see some changes this time. I'm starting on induction today...which I feel like I've done too many times. Hopefully with addressing the thyroid part of it, I will actually see the scale go down instead of up this time.

      I had a partial thyroidectomy in 2003, everytime I get my thyroid tested I'm hoping they will tell me the half that is still there just isn't cutting it and that is the reason I'm fat. No dice. . . I'm just fat.

      I hope getting your thyroid issues taken care of will help you, I'm almost certain it will!
      I WILL learn to feel comfortable in my own body again!

        Hey Lindsayanne0, I'll be your buddy if you'd like! It looks like our goals are just about the same. I've been on Atkins for a month, but taking it slower on OWL 1 so I can make sure that I've got a handle on things, so I'm not too far ahead of you.

        Friend me if you wanna chit chat and encourage eachother, k? No worries if you have already found a friend--it won't hurt my feelings--just wanted to make sure you had a buddy to start out with!
