After my disappointing doctor appointment last week, I'm going to make a doubly concerted effort to drop the weight. Maybe if I write it down here, I'll really do it!
1. I got a Fitbit and am going to track my steps, activity, water, and sleep. (my technology fix for the month) Am certain I won't make 10K steps at first so I'm shooting for 5K. I strongly suspect that with my sedentary job I don't get close to 5K steps every day.
2. Although I have been tracking my carbs, I'm going to write it down rather than just count on the fly.
3. Taking 600mcg kelp per day (4 150mcg tablets). My doctor has not diagnosed me with Hashimoto's (Ha! He only checks for TSH and says it is fine with my daily dose of levothyroxine, so he wouldn't know!)
4. Keep doing the wheatless, grainless thing and loving the food I'm eating.
I also ordered free T3, free T4, and reverse T3 blood tests on my own. When I see the results and get them interpreted by our campus physician, I'll decide on what to do next.
I have alot to lose, but I'm really happy with all the great food choices. A lot more trouble than fast food, but so much more delicious!
