Losing Weight with Hypothyroidism

April 6, 20172 Comments

It's been exactly about a year since I was diagnosed with Hypothyroidism in 2016. But before that, I began to develop the symptoms long before my diagnosis. Refer to Hypothyroidism: My Personal Journey to a Diagnosis. To put it simply, I was exhausted all the time & I put on weight extremely fast. Since September 2015, I … Continue reading Losing Weight with Hypothyroidism

How are you REALLY doing?

March 10, 20171 Comment

"How are you doing?" "Good. How about you?" "Good." COOL    -__- Typical response to a typical question. I'm sure all of us find ourselves blindly saying "good" to this question without even having to really think about how we really are doing. I get asked this question probably like 10 times a day from … Continue reading How are you REALLY doing?

What the hell is Hypothyroidism?!

Hypothyroidism. What the hell is that?! To be honest, I had never heard of Hypothyroidism, I barely even knew what the thyroid even was! Today, it is something that defines my every day life.

New Year, New Me?

January 1, 2017January 4, 2017Leave a comment

It's the first day of 2017 & I couldn't be happier. How do I even describe 2016? Awful? Horrific? Terrible? 2016 was devastating to say the least & I am thrilled for a new start. I have always heard this phrase, "new year, new me." I always found it to be kinda funny. People saying this … Continue reading New Year, New Me?
