Its been a long few weeks going through my cancer testing and being off the medications. I am finally starting to lose again. This time I am going to push harder. Thank you GOD.
I am currently going through some testing to make sure I am in remission from the Cancer. So I have to be off my meds (synthroid) for 6 weeks. YIKES! I put on 7 pounds the first week. Thankfully I lost it again then another pound or two. I am 232! YAYAY. I have about 3 weeks to go before my next scan. I hope I make it that long..lol. I have no energy left in me most days lately. I know this won't last forever. I can't wait until I can take my synthroid again, so I can get my life back. Peace. :D
I am back up to 250 pounds now. My legs are swollen. So hopefully it is water retention. I have been kinda down and out about it. The past few days I have been confined to my chair. I have been in a lot of pain with "fibro". My GP is new and does not know my body. He took me from 300 mg of synthroid to 150. I know this is not the right dosage for me. I wish he would listen to me like my other doc did. I think I would know my body better than anyone else. Now I have to go through H*LL for the next 6 weeks on a dosage that will probably make me gain more weight. HMMMMMMM. Also, I notice with each day the pain is more and more. Have to wait six weeks in order to get my blood drawn so he can get the results and tell me that my synthroid is not right....lol. I already knew this. OH WELL.. such is life. I am still eating small portions, and have included more protein shakes like my surgeons office suggested. Hopefully this will help.
