Sweets

High fat foods high cholesterol foods.

I take vitamin D magnesium glycinate and red yeast rice for high cholesterol.

25mg Levothyroxin for hypothyroidism.

Which acording to what minimal test have been done is in a range of 1.9- 2.8.

My vitals this morning were..

HR-56

BP-139/97

Temp-96.1

Im so depressed.

And i have lost close to 9 lbs.

From 178 down to 169.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Excellent work Friend. You are striving for great things. Yes we would like to feel the result (peace, health, happiness, etc.) of our efforts. It will come. Don’t give up because it’s a journey not a destination. Some days will still be hard and painful and discouraging. But you ARE on the right path. Good job for quitting smoking! That’s in itself is huge! Give yourself some kind and loving acknowledgement of how far you’ve come. I’m sorry you are feeling depressed. Believe me I know how badly it sucks! Reaching out and receiving understanding and encouragement is good. We all need it. I’m hoping you feel that from me. ❤️

Sounds to me like you are on the right road, I agree with Dreamie, you are on a journey. All journeys have pot holes and barriers. How long have you been doing this? Your body and your mind have to adjust to the new conditions, be patient with yourself, live in the moment, enjoy the good days, let go of the poor days, they will pass and become less frequent I am changing my diet now and look at how it is affecting me, so far so good, have not lost much weight, but one of the med's I am on causes weight gain!!! Overall I feel well and am happy, need more exercise, wish I could go for walks with you. Write to us we will give you love and support. I encourage you to stay steady, use your strength, love yourself, you are special do not forget that. I send you Love, peace & Big Hugs.....Sprinkle...1......

Hey, hang in there. It looks like your making progress. My health is currently declining as well. I have some kidney issued that are resurfacing. I pray that we will both make it.
