it's a hard thing to diagnose from what i understand and a proper diagnosis takes several panels done over quite a bit of time.
i wouldn't mind bumping into you in the produce section!  or the liquor aisle...

I'm always skeptical of meds. I know women who have gotten thyroid meds because they were lazy and just wanted to lose weight w/o excercise and it made them crazy like they were on speed. This doc seems to like to over-perscribe as well so at the moment I'm just not buying it.
I had a GI problem that lasted for a little over two years that caused me to drop alot of weight. Now that I'm able to kind of eat normal I think my metabolism is probably still set on starvation mode. I don't think I have perm damage, just need to figure out how to get it back to normal.
Right now I have to keep it around 1500 cals just to maintain. My gall bladder is still a little fucked so if I eat garbage like mc d's my stomach "regulates" it for me and it usually comes right back up. Honestly I think I just need to excercise more. My days have been pretty full, haven't even been on GFY much lately
, I just need to force myself to make the time.
