Anyways, where was I?? I think I had just gotten done admitting maybe my thyroid is actually playing a part in my slowness to lose weight. I'm going to make sure I take my medicine as prescribed (first thing in am, on empty stomach, with full glass of water) for maximum absorption. I'm going to avoid eating large quantities of goitrogenic foods.
I cancelled my WW Online subscription yesterday. Now, WW is a very good program. I lost 75 lbs on it. But I don't think the points counting is doing it for me. I think I need to go to the "calories in, calories out" step.
Which brings me to SparkPeople. This is a free website with nutrition and fitness tracking; recipes, motivational and wellness articles, member blogs, etc etc. It's a huge website so it's been time well spent reading. I'm going to track my nutrition and workouts on this site.

This and your previous blog were very informative--had no idea those certain veggies are rough on the thyroid. I like your attitude. Good luck with the Synthroid.
Do what works for you and don't worry about anything else.
Kim - Tami has been using SparkPeople for some time now and enjoys it.
Way to stick with it. "Patience and perseverence" - I don't remember where I heard that, but it will get you through almost anything.
Kim, I really like SparkPeople and have been using it for a long time. I love being able to put my recipe in, tweak it to add or subtract something and get the right calorie/fat/carbs/protein ratio without thinking too hard. It is also easy to copy the previous day's meal to the next which works for me since I tend to eat the same for breakfast/lunch.
Good luck
I used SparkPeople.com for a while a few years ago and really liked it. What a cool site! Hope to see you soon.. :)
