Thank you Dr Lewis!

I appreciate your input.

I’ll wait at least a month into stabilization in maintenance to go for a lab test.

One foot in front of the other until then!

Today I had the little Aldi coffee can with cream and sugar again. Work was so hard. I had the 2:45 pm lunch, and had 5 more bites of the pizza. Finally 7 pm work over, had 5 bites of pizza. Pizza finally finished. May get more bars in future, maybe Special K bars. I spend too much on food. Also need to get my vitamins on board. Cold water is…[Read more]

I’d still give it a little time.  Thyroid moves very slowly–it takes weeks for a medication change to appear on lab work.  Similarly, it takes weeks for a weight change to affect your lab work.

Thanks!!!  I have lost -30 since my nyc vacation.

Hi again old thread!

Questions for Dr Lewis:

When is the right time for me to have my thyroid medicine updated? I’ve had a thyroidectomy (post thyroid papillary cancer) and my thyroid medicine is at a certain dose. Should I go have a check-up to see if the dose needs lowering, now that my body mass is smaller? Should I wait for a few weeks past…[Read more]

Wonderfully done! It’s interesting to notice all these changes in out thinking and behaviour. Thank you for sharing!

Not letting the Monday grind interfere with my plans. For breakfast, I had the little Aldi can of cold brew, but with cream and sugar.

Hello Week 2!

I have weighed myself, and I have lost 6 pounds. I am now at 185. This is major for me. I never have this success with my diets.

The last time I recall being in the 180s was in 2022. I lost weight by accident. I wasn’t trying. I had achieved the dream of all call center reps: I was put on the email queue! I was so excited. I was…[Read more]

Nicely done JulieNom!

The end of the weekend was good. On Saturday night, after I finished my 5 bites, I had an ice cream, but not more, and I went to bed.

On Sunday I had a little can of cold coffee I had purchased from Aldi. It had milk and sugar. I did not like it, but it was better than the Starbucks. To stay on my schedule, I ordered a lunch from Uber Eats to…[Read more]

Congratulations on feeling free of food noise!

I’m skipping bubbly water altogether. The gas feels harsh on my stomach. I love natural spring water with nothing added. That water feels soft and soothing to my stomach.
