Back after MIA!

Hi!

I'm back after being MIA for awhile. I had some religous obligations to tned to this month. :)


Here is where I'm at: When I came home from the hospital ( After delivering at 20weeks) I was 222. I went up and down on a roller coaster for awhile. My thyroid is screwed up from labor. So now I am at 224. I gained 7lbs last week (stupid thyroid) and lost 5lbs this week lol. It hardly seems possible but yes ladies when you have a thyroid condition this happens all the time!


So, now my meds have been adjusted and I should be back on track for awhile.


Wish me luck!

Welcome back. I was on this board before and just came back the other day. I don't think we were ever on during the same time though.


I also have a VERY wacky thryoid and I hate it!! I hope that yours gets back to normal soon.

Misha,


It varies from year to year. If I fast and do my normal activities I will loose a couple lbs a week. If I fast and do nothing then I stay about the same. My husband usually looses a significant amount of weight. One year he lost 30lbs! This year he lost ten.


The thing is we eat enough food at the breaking of the fast to make up for the entire day lol. My husband is from Pakistan so everything is fried and drowned in curry!


So, I say it varies year to year and the level of activity we do. This year I was on medical leave from work because I went through preterm labor and had a hard recovery. I didn't do much activity at all!


Hope this answers your question.
