Look at the images on this page http://multi-carehealth.com/wp/ I was all adrenal. That was me too, come 3pm I was out. They had me taking Phosfood liquid which was great , as well as Licorice (I hated that one) to get me through those hours |

naynai0428 - I think I posted the recipe for the salad dressing a while back. Here it is :)
"On the topic of salad dressing - I ordered a bunch of the WF salad dressings and loathe them all! Man - I wish I hadn't spent that money! So I've been making my own salad dressing - I love citrus flavors so I've been digging on the following dressing on my salad as well as using it for a marinade for shrimp or chicken which I add to my salad: 2 tsp EVOO 3 tsp lemon or lime juice 1 clove fresh garlic chopped cilantro (to taste) lemon or lime zest fresh cracked pepper & sea salt to taste pinch of garlic powder I like more acid than normal salad dressing calls for because I love the citrus flavor and it makes the dressing go farther. My salad with this dressing usually consists of romaine, spring mix, spinach, red onion, cilantro leaves, mixed greens, and cucumbers...yum!" |

[QUOTE=chimpchamp;3287084]pitakitten you sound like someone from the "5 HOUR ENERGY" commercial. You do NOT want to go through the drive-thru. Think about it; the employees have not washed their hands, the food quality is beyond bad, they drop your order on the floor and serve it to you anyway, you'll kick yourself afterwards when you realize it really didn't taste as good as you thought it might. Your cravings are changing, remember? So is your body...for the better. Buy some Celestial Seasonings peach or raspberry tea, add a pack of splend or some stevia and enjoy! Have a pickle. Just don't let some silly drive thru get the best of you!
thank you for the support you all. poured myself some coffee with splenda and started to clean my desk at work (needed mindless work). Heading home in a bit to clean up and go for a walk to trador Joe's (need lettuce), that is a total of 3.4 mile walk. After which I will be looking forward to my esspreso drink and some sort of fish that my partner will be cooking. sort of sad for the poor guy, he was saying the other day that he really misses having wine with me. We used to wine shop together and like a kid in candy store we would try them and rate them. He is supportive though but I know he would love it if I started to drink again. I ramble on...onwards to more paper shredding and then my lovely painfull walk up the hill. -El |

what is great is that the place I go for my IDP food/coach is also a hollistic healing center; I will talk to them next time I am there which is Friday morning for my weigh in. btw, I do totally look like the thyroid problem image. AND I always end up having problems in my joints, although that has really gone down since I have been on this diet. I was thinking the other day that I used to take atleast 3 to 4 ibuprofins per day and now I can't remember the last time I took some. thanks again. |

Congrats girl! |
Any ideas for how to get back in the game? Brain Transplant? Each day I start off OK, then work and kids, i can't take it! I'm like a wild raccoon in the pantry!!
I don't want to gain the weight back, I want to be in control again. It's like I opened the floodgates. It doesn't help that the last few weeks I was doing IP, I wasn't losing, just maintaining. So I did get a bit discouraged. Hoping that in writing this I will get my head on straight. Eating is not going to make work or kids easier. Feeling fat will make it worse. Maybe I should write that 100 times? |
had bloodwork done yesterday. Got a call from the Dr today asking me to come in. ????? ok....
She wanted to go over my labs. Basically, she is concerned because my cholestral is TOO LOW! YEP... too LOW! She thinks I should be off the diet soon. Also, my thyroid results which had started to show improvement, have now tanked again. My results: Good is ..... last april .... this february......this week total cholestral .....150 - 199 .......160 ....... 118 ................. 92 triglycerides ........ 0 -149 ............71 ......... 39 .................. 33 HDL (good) ... more than 45 ..........59 ......... 50 ................. 43 LDL (bad) .........0 - 99.87 ..........87 ......... 62 ................. 46 She says I am not getting enough fat in my diet. She knows I am not going off unless she can tell me something bad but she suggested I not do this for more than another 3 months. She is planning to retest me at that point. Also, I found out that not having enough cholesterol and fat makes you prone to not making hormones correctly. It messes up your sex hormones, cause less progesterone, estrogen dominance, anxiety, depression, and stroke. Guess I have to think this thru and talk to my coach. |
