Good morning Chris & Cali Crew,
Today finds me up 5# from last week.  However, it's a combination of water weight (PMS) and a resurgence of my hypothyroidism. I saw me doctor last week and my thyroid tests are in the tank.  Not even in the normal range.

Wondering if anyone else has experienced this.  I've been on thyroid meds for years, since age 19, and for the last three years since WLS haven't had a problem until now.  My PCP isn't sure why all of a sudden I'm not absorbing the thyroid. We are upping the dosage and she is suggesting dfferent times of day to take it.  In the mean time, I'm experiencing weight gain, (despite good diet and exercise) extreme fatigue, brittle nails, excessively dry skin, coldness and hair loss.  I see my WLS surgeon at the end of the month and hopefully he will have some insight as well. 

In the meantime, if anyone else has had any experience with this, please let me know. Having been hypothyroid nearly all my life, I'm used to the ups and downs, but as I've been so stable for the last three years, this is very frustrating. 


Hope everyone has a great day - only 2 more days until friday!  YEAH!
Thanks,

Kim

Good Morning Chris and Cali Crew,

Hi. I am down 2.4 lbs this week. I hope everyone is having a great 'hump' day.  I am feeling better today. My appetite still isn't the greatest. Looks like it is going to be a nice day in this area. Might get in a walk this afternoon. Right now I could use a nap.  Have a great one!!!!

Hi Chris!
 I am down 3 lbs this week. I had a wow moment today. I fit into a pair of 14's. Not in the woman's department! I am out of the plus size. WOOHOOO!!I still consider myself plus but the clothes don't. LOL

Hugs,
Dawn

Hey Miss Chris! Long time no talk! *snicker*

I do not remember what my last weigh in for you was, so I'm at a loss for the number of lbs that I've lost, but I weighed in at 219.0 today. And, I bought a jammies set from Costco last night - in a size large - and they fit great! No more 3X's for me!

Oh - and I'm officially half way to my goal from starting Options. I started at 291 in April of last year, and have lost a total of 72 lbs! Only 69 more to go! I was hoping to be in Onederland for my birthday, but I'm not there. Oh well! Maybe by June 1st!

Anyway - get back to work!! *giggle*
