I have been on Thyroxine meds for 6 yrs now, MY WEIGHT Just will NOT shift, fast enough, hahaha , Duromine has helped me to lose over the last 5 months, to many on this site, 6.6 kg over 5 months may not seem like a big deal, but for me, right now, it is huge, as I have tried EVERYTHING short bursts of exercise, long tedious exercise, no carbs, only carbs, only protein, no snacking, loads of snacking ,etc etc etc .... After 6 yrs of doctors trying to get my TH levels balanced and my med count right, success came my way on Friday , doc was thrilled will my 2kg loss as she had last weighed me in three weeks before , I have cut down from 7 days a week on D to 2 or 3 x week ,as I need it, since upping my thyroxine meds and taking D every other day, I have energy like never before, on my off days of taking D, I was so tired and drained, now I am energetic everyday , my family cannot keep up with me, and my weight is finally just coming off, cm loss is huge over the last two weeks, cannot wear any of my summer pants, my daughter had to help me put safety pins on the sides of my pants when we went out bowling the other day as my pants nearly came right off, what a laugh, but gr8 feeling too .. I AM NOT READY for the size 18 yet, my waist says yes, but my hips and glutes are still to big for me to feel confident yet , goodbye to my 22 and 20 pants and tops, they all hang on me now, feels gr8 but frustrating to find something to wear everyday, hahaha,my wedding band finally fits again, have not worn it in 12 yrs.. gr8 feeling .. hubby is happy too ..lol .
MY DOCTOR ,bless her soul ,is smiling from ear to ear ..She was convinced my thyroid meds was the cause of me not losing more each week while on D, AND SHE IS SO RIGHT, I have lost more in a week than I did in the 5 months each week, crazy as ... I am doing nothing different with my food intake or exercise , I am actually HUNGRY for breakfast, when I wake up I just want to run downstairs and make brekkie, have not felt this way, since high school days, I was 49kg and doing sport everyday , my metabolism is finally working again ..only thing that has changed is my excitement too see good results each week, I do not dread the scale anymore, and i do not have the pressure of eating or exercise, to motivate, or feel "I NEED TO DO MORE " to help my weight shift, it has been so stressful worrying why I could not shift the weight, when doing all the right things ..Doc is happy I am happy my daughter is happy and just wants to throw out all my clothes now, hahaha .. hOPE YOU ALL DOING WELL THIS WEEK, read some of your blogs, sounds like you all progressing so well, hope to soon be in the 80'kg club with those of u who are already there , you know who you are hee hee .. HAVE AN AWESOME WEEK ALL ...Never give up on your health and body, and mind ,eventually you will see what it is that hinders you , and overcome it all .. I am so glad I am finally on my way to success now ...
