    I wasn’t given any dietary restrictions but I think they did tell me not to eat shellfish for a few days before rai. I just started tracking my food with the "Lose It" app on my phone since I have gained a couple pounds.

    Unfortunately, our doctors don’t seem to give us much guidance when it comes to optimizing our diet. You will want to be careful with your iodine intake (seaweed, fish, dairy) while you are hyperthyroid. Our bodies convert iodine into thyroid hormone…which is the last thing you need while hyper…it’s like throwing gasoline on a fire!

    Personally, I feel best when I eat a variety of whole foods (fruits, veggies, whole grains, lean meats, limited dairy). I try to minimize processed foods with ingredients that I can’t pronounce, as I figure my body doesn’t need any more aggravation. <img decoding=” title=”Very Happy” />

    Also, I count Weight Watchers POINTS every day, as it’s definitely been a struggle to keep my weight in check throughout this process.

    Best of luck!
