Hi All,

I know, I haven’t posted in awhile. (I was starting to get paranoid about all the
varied symptoms) However, I had a busy week, went to the GI doc. I messed up
my appt. date. and Ended up fasting for 48 hrs vs 24. However, lucky me
got an “extended” exam-everything checked okay. (phew!) also, Saw my
Doc yesterday- After having RAI done last AUG and starting Levo in
Jan, My thyroid (T3/T4) lvls are normal!!! (However, TSH wasn’t back yet,
So call next week-) AND my MD said that let’s wait 3 months until the next
lab/doc appt.

Now, the next hurdle will be losing 120 lbs. (SIGH) I mean I fasted for 48 hours
and didn’t lose weight?! sigh. (well, not that I could tell) My Levo dose
is currently .1 for those so data inclined folk.

Huggers and Happy Easter all. Dawn.

God bless you with your weight problem. I have had no luck with carbo
hydrate diets and much better luck with low carbo diets. What’s worked
for me in the past is NO starches and sugars, lean proteins such as
fish (baked broiled) or chicken, turkey. As little fats as possible.
No fruits or grains.
It’s no fun, but I havn’t tried anything else that worked. I now have
diabetes after 30 years of eating this way. Probably no insulin receptors
left.
Keep in touch, If you find anything that works, let me know.
