Week 1... almost.

[PinkNinja]

Hi

I'm pretty new here. I have been doing this for almost a week. I want to move my weigh-in day to Monday so I am weighing in today this week (a couple of days early) and then Monday next week.

I weighed myself this morning and I have lost 4.5lb! No wonder I was hungry!

It seems that my thyroid medication is now just about right now. I'm certainly feeling a lot better than before. Last time I tried this I didn't lose a single pound... not even half a pound! I must say I was quite shocked this morning, in a nice way.

If I lose more than 2lb next week I think I might increase my calories. I might be underestimating my activity level

Thanks for the great advice and support I've received this week

Hi Caroline

Great weight loss - well done

I have down loaded two 'free' apps onto my phone. Both I feel are aiding me in my attempt to lose weight. They are 'my fitnesspal' and 'runtastic-pedometer'. I recommend you check them out and use them too. Glad your thyroid meds are at optimal levels and you are feeling better and managing to lose weight. I've just started on T3/4 combo and hoping I can lose weight quicker and easier than before. I have slooooowly lost 11bls since Xmas but an extra 1.5bls since the weekend. I am hoping its the introduction of T3 and the weight will continue to come off.
