Faythe Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 Hello all, I recently was diagnosed with hypothyroid. I was given the first pharmaceutical of my life and I’m not happy about it. I was feeling overly tired, my face would hang in a new way, a way I didn’t recognize myself. I tried keto and I think that’s what threw the hammer down on my thyroid. I was very tired thinking I had carb flu. After 30 days of ketosis I stopped and went back to normal eating, not overeating, and gained 30(!) lbs in about two months!! I don’t recognize myself. I’ve done the whole30 in the past and remember how great I felt, taking such good care of my nutrition. Plus getting reacquainted with cooking regularly. I am currently on day 6 and going strong. I made sure to get everything non compliant out of my kitchen before I began. (Easier for me than others because I live alone.) I am looking forward to this experience as I am 41 now and do not want to give up on my healthy body. I have always had a resilient body and I want to give my body the love it deserves. A time to rest and regenerate. I’m currently got my eyes set on 31 days, but I may do the 66 as the book says that’s the best way to truly create good habits.

StacyFace Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 Faythe, I have hypothyroid too. Am curious if I can come off my meds after I balance out and heal my body. Got GERD too, my body is always mad at me for what I eat. Sounds like you have a good plan. And reassuring to read you've done it before and are back again. Very hopeful to change my relationship with food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
