Hey guys, I'm new to the group and needing some support. I am on BHRT and have low thyroid and am strugling to relose 80 pounds that I had taken off from medication and gained back once the medication was reintroducted. I've been off of the medication for a year and trying to lose the weight this time seems much more difficult!
I lost it before on a lower carb diet but that diet seems to exacerbate my depression now so I've stopped counting carbs and went toward eating more fruits and and vegetables, more mufas at each meal, more water, walking, more flax and oats, and cutting out saturated fats (whereas before on low carb those were okay). I guess you could say I am confused as to what is okay and who to believe regarding good fats and bad fats so Ive opted to believe in mono for now and see how that works! I must admit I miss my beef already and am trying to find new proteins to replace that...chicken is one but I cannot cook chicken for the life of me...it is always dry...chicken breast and unappealing.
If anyone has any tips I would definitely appreciate it and would like to become a member of the group...
Thanks for listening! I just turned 49 and am losing my mind!
