I lost 8 lbs!

I just checked my weight this morning for the hell of it. I lost 8 lbs since just before surgery!!!! I was 220 the day of surgery and now I'm 212. Ahhhh...if only this will keep up right?

I never lost weight after being on synthroid and I'm now on the Armour, so I'm hoping that is what is having an effect (since I'm really not watching what I'm eating).

Sorry, just had to brag a bit lol.

Cool! So far I haven't seen a loss, but it hasn't been that long.

Hope it keeps up for you.

I'm still at the point where I watch what I eat, exercise and still gain weight. I gained five just in the last month. it's crazy. I'm trying not to let it get to me, but I don't have much left to wear.

I know what you mean! I'm always glad if I just stay at the same weight. In reality though if it wasn't for the thyroid problem I should have lost a lot more. Things work slow sometimes even backwards :( Considering I need to technically lose 35 pounds at minimum I still have a long long way to go. Everyday is a struggle. So what else is new when your hypo!!!!! On a good note, It's going to be 75 this weekend in my neck of the woods... yah for sunshine and warmth!!!!!! Have a good one.
