Obesity
Quote From: jenna133My name is Claudia and I had to write to you. I am 35 and 357 lbs. I have never been on a message board before. I need help and support the most. I'm a single mom with a four year old son. I am hypothyroid and I have Hashimoto's Disease. I have been Hypothyroid since elementary school. I wasn't always on medicine because I thought it would just go away.The denial has not helped my weight. I started gaining and gaining. I gave up hope of ever losing weight. I had Dr. Phil's book for years but didn't get past the first few chapters. I picked up the audio-book and starting applying the Seven Keys. I lost 10 pounds so far. I went for a walk yesterday for the first time in years. I hope we can help and support each other in our fight to be healthy. Claudia make sure your TSH stays under 2. get it checked avery 6 months. Also if you have ADD ( mind racing, disorganized , having 100 things going at once and having a hard time completing it) you will have a harder time dieting most people with ADD do. If you do have ADD try Stratterra, you will be amazed at not only will you not have a appatite you will be able to control what you eat and not eat and snack uncontrollably
