Guest guest Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 I have a gluten/cows milk allergy combo. I get the ear congestion stuff like that. Sometimes when I " cheat " on these loud noises make me ear make a crackling noise. andrea calcitanium <calcitanium@...> wrote: I sometimes get nausea when exercising on my back, such as situps or crunches. The same thing was happening to me last year, but I stopped doing those exercises for the winter. Has anybody heard of such a problem or how to help it? When I was in junior high school I experienced some nausea when doing somersaults. Thanks very much. --------------------------------- Ahhh...imagining that irresistible " new car " smell?

Guest guest Posted February 3, 2009 Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 Hi people, I guess it's a sign of feeling brigher to be thinking about exercise, unfortunately my weight has definitely gone up again over the last 2-3 months and my daugher is getting married in August, so I'm beginning to worry that mother of the bride will resemble Mr Blobby! Ha! Does anybody have any experience of or advice on returning to exercise after adrenal/thyroid issues. I used to be a dedicated exerciser, was one of the first things that went downhill, now I look back, but would love to get going again. Also, are there anyways of sensible eating that tend to work for us hypos! Sadly, I've never lost my appetite as so many do.I don't do dieting! All advice gratefully received. Thanks. London's thawing thank goodness! M x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 3, 2009 Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 Hi , I agree with you here that if you are thinking about exercise its a sign you are definitely feeling brighter... I too used to be a dedicated exerciser and since putting 3 stone on in a couple of years and having joint and back pains it has been very hard to shift the excess weight. Luckily I have not put any on since I've been on levothyroxine (last Feb). I am now 5 pounds lighter than I was a year ago. I go for a brisk walk every day if I can, at least 20 minutes and if I can walk rather than take the car I do. I also walk up stairs rather than take the elevator. I find this is gentle enough to keep the blood circulating and to release those happy endorphins that help to ward off depression. I am also going to start going swimming every week as I want to look decent in my cossie when I go to Greece in May! On the food side...I swear by porridge. I have eaten this for breakfast every day for years and I firmly believe that this is why I don't have a problem with my cholesterol (yet), which is very common with most hypothyroid sufferers. I also eat oat biscuits and lots of fruit. You've got 6 months till August when your daughter gets married which is plenty of time to get your plan into action!! Good luck...you know you can do it.

Guest guest Posted February 3, 2009 Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 Hi , I am in the same position - feeling a bit brighter and hate the weight that has piled on. I found a great website called Sparkpeople which is a completely free site offering all sorts of diet and fitness resources including videos, articles, recipes and personal fitness tracking tools. There are also lots of groups within the community on the site and one is hypothyroid people with weight to lose. You may find it useful. Congratulations on feeling better and good luck with the fitness regime. http://www.sparkpeople.com/ x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 4, 2009 Report Share Posted February 4, 2009 In M E circles we are advised to start with gentle stretching exercises. Dr P suggests the same, and also walking. You can start with just a few minutes walk per day and build up gradually. If you have reached the stage where you think you can build up your fitness then Pilates is good. It is like a mixture of yoga and Technique. It strengthens the core muscles and helps promote proper use of the body without strain. Try to find something you will really enjoy doing. I do gentle circle dancing, which is hardly more strenuous than walking. The other ladies there are very welcoming and the music is lovely. If it gets too much no-one minds if I sit out at the side.

Guest guest Posted February 4, 2009 Report Share Posted February 4, 2009 Hi ; I do pilates twice a week, it is very gentle and helps keep you flexible. I also walk the dogs twice a day. I am glad you are starting to feel better ! Kind regards Jane > > Hi , > > I am in the same position - feeling a bit brighter and hate the weight > that has piled on.

Guest guest Posted February 4, 2009 Report Share Posted February 4, 2009 Hi , Don't try to do too much too quickly- allow you body to heal. Pushing your self to hard can cause a still stressed body into a relapse. Most folk seem to do best with a lowish refined carb regime with lots of fresh stuff- it takes more chewing therefore we tend to eat slightly less too!
