Sat 22 June extra easy
Breakfast...... Big bowl of fruit and muller light
Lunch....... Porridge fruit muller light
Dinner...... Chicken curry rice and chips. I use a curry sauce called Bensons and it makes up 2 pints of sauce for 40 syns there is easily 8 portions of sauce so I tend to count it as 5 syns aprox.
Syns..... Curry sauce (5) Sainsburys popcorn (2.5) 4 Bacardi (12) 5 sweets ( milk tray ) (15) 1 Tesco crisps (7)
I'm over on the syns again, but have used 93.5 out of 105 so far this week. Still 2 days till weigh in and 11 syns left
Going out for a meal tonight to a restaurant I've not been to before so don't know what I will eat, but I'm going to enjoy myself and not worry, catch up with you all later, I'm away off to do a weeks ironing, oh the joys lol

Ironing oo that naughty swear word 
. I try to avoid it these days - now the family are older they want it ironed they do their own - this includes hubby lol. He's a gem and I did say when I got divorced if I married again he'd cook, clean and iron - modern world . Glad your weekend is going well Moira.

Hi guys,
I've just been diagnosed with under active thyroid too?
Any tips or advice?
Going out of my mind at the moment :-(

Thyroid Troubles, EE and Green days with Photos
Rachel try not to worry about it. Take your media every day, morning is best, and look after yourself as normal. If you still don't feel right, go back as your meds might need tweaked. I try to avoid soya products as I've read they can further depress your thyroid. There is lots of advice online.
Relax, as long as you medicate, life will be totally normal!

Morning ladies had a lovely meal last night
Tried to be good during the day and just had my usual porridge muller and fruit and for syns I had an alpen bar and crisps (13 )
Well we went out with my niece and her husband, I volunteered to drive so was on the diet coke all night
Had a big plate if garlic mushrooms to start, with a lovely garlic dip
Beef on a bed of creamy mash with a side order of garlic potatoes
And desert was white chocolate cheesecake with ice cream
Finished it all off with a lovely coffee topped with more cream
I'm guessing a lot of syns but its the first time I've been out in ages and really enjoyed myself so It was worth it.
I will have to stand on the scales on one leg tonight lol

Hi Racheldubljn
Welcome to the thread, the best advice I can give you is to try and relax now you have your diagnosis of under active thyroid,
it's something we all have for life and I for one do not plan to stress about it for the rest of my days
I know you probably feel awful now but that wont last long cos Once your meds are at the correct dose you will start to feel much better, the weight will come off, it may come off slowly but it will come off
Some quick questions Rachel.......
When were u diagnosed ?
Who do you attend ? Doctor or endocrinologist ?
What meds are u on ?
What dosage ?
Do you know what tests you had done ? TSH , free t4 ?
Do u know what your blood results were ?
Are you doing ww or slimming world ?
I've done both and find sw much easier for weight loss and its more of a lifestyle change rather than a diet we need to lose the weight and keep it off
I had planned to go to Dublin today for the sales but couldn't make it, will probably be next week now. I'm sure there will still be plenty of bargains left anyway, chat to you later x

Hi Ruby when I was diagnosed I was over active so did not really have weight problems its only when I was overmedicated I had a gain.
It's all different for me now because since my surgery I will always be under active
I've managed to have small losses and my meds are not right yet so I'm happy with that
I think we expect too much of ourselves and expect big losses all the time, one persons slow loss could be another's fast one,
I'm happy with any loss cos after all its all going in the right direction , if we view it as a race I think we may always be unhappy instead of delighted and motivated to keep going

Well good news folks, just home from weigh in and I've lost 1 lb so I'm really delighted again.
I did not have a lot to eat today cos I have IBS and its really flared up today, it's been grumbling a bit since Thursday but today really took out,
Maybe all the fat laden food last night did not help .!!!!!
Breakfast......... Porridge muller fruit
During the day plenty of water and peppermint tea with painkillers and antispasmodics
and for tea I just had a bread roll with ham cheese and salad cream, crisps and 2 pink and white wafers,
I've a few things to do here and then I'm off to bed early with more painkillers, work in the morning.
Hope yous all had a good day, catch up tomorrow x
