One stone at a time target/challenge.

Morning guys,

Just been reading through the posts and I have been on levothyroxine for about 12 months now. I wasn't cold (although I am now) or had dry skin, but was always tired, brittle nails and the doc did a blood test and I was borderline at first, then 3 months later they started me on medication. I took 12.5mgs at first, now I'm on 100mgs. its increased every time except the last blood test. I'm waiting on results of my latest test now. I did see a massive difference once the medication kicked in. I had so much more energy. I still suffer with insomnia though.

Lisa - you can ask your GP to do the test, sometimes like in my case it can take 6 months to show up (2 tests). Hope you get it sorted honey!

Thanks hun !

Don't stress about ur gain Lisa. It's only a tiny blip. At least u will know for certain about ur thyroid wen u get it checked. I've had mine checked a few times and it always cums back ok, I'm sure it's not tho! My mum has underactive thyroid and is on the highest dose of tablets possible. I'm sure ive got it 2.

Can't believe the probs ur poor gran is having. Sum people will sink so low! Hope u get it sorted soon Hun xxxx

Well maybe you should go and get it checked again ... From what Emma said, it took more than one blood test to confirm it.

Hope the doc helps Lisa. I've had mine tested loads of times and am always disappointed when it's not that... Would explain the tiredness etc...

Thanks Gail!

Hope everyone is well :) x

Hey there!
I'm here - been bad today - I think sometimes I avoid posting when I've been bad!! Got invited out for lunch after Church today and went to the Indian buffet!! Counted about 32 points in total and said no to some things too!
Not had any weeklies yet this week so its okay really - just a stupid day to do it - the day before weigh day. Ah well here's hoping for a loss tomorrow!
Hope everyone else has had a great weekend.

APs EARNED = 10AP (Biggest Loser DVD)

1. I had a nice night out..

3. I did an exercise dvd :D

Well I had my hair done and was pleased... got ready and had a bottle of wine.. then we went to town and shared another bottle... all within weeklies... but then at the end of the night my friend wanted chips and for some stupid reason I ordered some... I had said all night I would resist and I normally do.. half way through I got really cross at myself and threw them away.. but then when I got home I ate 3 mr kipling cakes and some jelly sweets.. no idea what possessed me... But I decided I would earn the AP back so no big panic... just mad at myself...

2 mini yorkshires for 3 points ?? thought they were 1 point for a normal sized one ?

The soup sounds lovely hun !

Im not doing my diet this week. Im at doctors tomorrow. Gonna see what they have to say, and take it from there.

Lots of interesting stuff from the bug I planted... including the fact that she is down 2.5k in the bank, plus £250 a week that is gone. When her outgoings can be no more than £100. thats if she spent £70. a week on food... Old woman on her own... no way does she spend that much ! she should have around £150 a week left over to save for what ever she wants.

God lisa thats dreadful the poor woman. Thank god you planted the bug. Good luck at the doc tomorrow hope all goes well and she checks your thyroid . I thought yorkshires were only 1 point too . Ive just checked the packet cos i always use aunt bessies ones and sure enough its 1 point for 1 but 3 points for2 .
 
Bread does that sometimes as well - 2pps per slice but 5pps if you have two slices. Freaks me out a bit - I'd eat them separately if I thought I could save a point - LOL.

I'm off to play badminton again tonight before weigh in - do you think this might mess up my weigh in?

Just had sumthing yummy & wanted to share it. Fresh strawberries dipped in cadburys light choc mousse. 2 points & well worth it! Yum yum xxx

I swear that's why I struggle to lose weight now, think I f****d my metabolism up wiv being stupid. Sending u a big dolly cuddle xxxx
 
Lisa - don't be disheartened, hope you get sorted at Doc's.Can't beleive the results of your 'spooks' session with the camera thingy! We'll be calling you Nancy Drew pretty soon! :D

Gail you make me laugh with your posts!! :D

So I lost a pound tonight! Not bad going after yesterdays curry and my TOTM appeared today, and after the badminton too!!

Did the loser dance in the kitchen and ended up hitting my hubby on the hand with a spoon! He's got a bruise already - but was so chuffed that I was happy he didn't mind..LOL

Sending everyone big hugs!
