    Thyroid and Selenium

    Glad you are okay, Carolyn! I don't know if the Selenium helps, but really, I have finally lost some weight again! She said it was fine. I am now on 100mcg of Synthroid. What are you on? I still can't understand how I am hypo and hyper though - did you have both as well?

    Thyroid and Selenium

    I would also like to add that when I went to endo on Tues, I found out that I have developed Graves Disease along w/ my initial diagnosis of Hashimotos. I would like to know if anyone else has this rare condition which is being hypo and hyper at the same time? She said it is the worst case...

    Thyroid and Selenium

    I'm eager to hear the response to Kim's question. Meanwhile, I started taking the Selenium too, as you mentioned it...and I have also seen 6 lbs drop from me (gained 12 since hypo diagnosis iN Sept). I told my endo about it just this past week and she said it was fine that I did that (I...

    Hi Everyone!

    I know. Even I have succombed to it and I am usually a fence-rider. It totally wasn't like me to post with such an opinion but I can't believe this. Things are so much more important in life and all we are going to do is criticize a cooldown? This is a non-issue IMO! Perspective, people! I have...

    MMA Fusion??

    I disagree w/ some of the above posters. I absolutely love Fusion. It isn't the most difficult when it comes to heart rate elevation (although that could be subjective, of course) but it is very innovative if you ask me - rolling around like a fighter, etc. I found it to be very exciting and my...

    cardio

    Hi K. I workout 6 times per week. 1- I can't pick my fave - I love all cardio except for really choreographed step like Step Moves :( (love high impact/high intensity step though!) 2- Cardio 3-4 times per week, one of those days usually being a circuit, the others solely cardio. I do HIIT...

    Hi Everyone!

    I am so sick of this cooldown topic. I still haven't even really noticed that the cooldowns are lacking. Neither does my husband. I mean, seriously, walk around a little bit more. She even says to cooldown longer on the videos. And who cares if they are step taps and toe taps to cool down? What...

    i beat a binge

    That is wonderful! You found something else to occupy your mind! They say that cravings only last about 10-15 minutes or so, (or something like that - I heard this on Dr Oz recently) so as long as you can occupy your time in other ways, you can beat it! Keep up the good work! :D

    I'm so HOT!!!!

    I was recently diagosed w/ Hashimoto's Thyroiditis. Sounds similar to what I have and was going through - which is an autoimmune disorder. The sweats got worse once I got on Synthroid. You might want to get some bloodwork done. Good luck! Clarissa

    where do you shop?

    Come to think of it, I do also buy a lot from Oh My Bod! I forgot about that. I also own several Nike tops. They make very cute hoodies too.

    You're right, Jonezie. Glad to see you on here again. :) And sorry I didn't respond to your messages yet - I was too busy getting on here and seeing what was going on. My baby starting walking yesterday and thus I have been preoccupied! Who cares about all this anyway, right? I am here...

    Please then, let's just ask Jonezie to come back. She is so nice. Your thread is very very funny to me actually. Really. I have a wonderful sense of humor. My husband calls me "Sarcastabitch" b/c I am the queen of humorous sarcasm. Anyone who knows me, knows that. But I hate making fun of...

    Please don't Beavs, please don't. You have no idea how much that hurts my feelings. I was sticking up for someone. Can't I do that? Good Lord.
