I'm sorry to whine, but I feel like I'm at the end of my rope. I am 31 years old, have hashimoto's thyroiditis, am prediabetic, hypoglycemic, and 5'4 and 160lbs. I feel like I have tried EVERYTHING for the last 20 years (yes, 20) to lose weight. I work out in my target heart rate zone for at least 45 minutes, 5X a week. I have tried restricting my calories (I once I ate 1200 calories for 4wks and didn't lose a single pound). I just finished two weeks on Michael Thurmond's body make over, which is a plan where you have no dairy, wheat, sugar, oil, or salt and I didn't lose a single pound. I always hear everyone say that losing weight is the easy part, it's keeping it off that's hard, but I've never actually lost the weight. Is anyone else like this? Did you ever find anything that worked for you?? I try to tell myself that the way I'm eating is healthier anyway and that exercise is good for my heart, but I would love to have the weight loss to go along with it. I would appreciate any information or support anyone has to offer.
Take Care,
Katy
