Guest guest Posted October 17, 2004 Report Share Posted October 17, 2004 My blood pressure's never been high...ever. So if it suddenly went up, that would indeed be a warning for me I'm on too much thyroid intake. But how would I know that unless I had a BP kit here to take it? I'll have to rely on my body to tell me other ways...like the heart beats I guess. Re: weight loss blood pressure, too. when i got my bp taken it was 140/100 when i'm usually 110/70. b Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 17, 2004 Report Share Posted October 17, 2004 Yep...I'm seeing that's the case indeed. Wait & see. Re: weight loss i wouldn't consider thyroid replacement the COMPLETE panacea for all your health issues but i would expect a lot of them to be taken care of when you hit the right therapeutic dose for a while. the best way to tell would be the wait and see what the benefits bring you. b Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 17, 2004 Report Share Posted October 17, 2004 Ok...saving this for later. Re: weight loss explanation of goitrogenic foods, their impact on thyroid, and list of goitrogenic foods: http://www.whfoods.com/genpage.php?tname=george & dbid=47 didn't see flax seed in there. will keep looking as i've not heard flax being goitrogenic. best, baron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 18, 2004 Report Share Posted October 18, 2004 at walmarts and targets they have blood pressure machines. you could get your bp taken when you are on your errands. i realize you'll have to wait till your car issues are fixed but you definitely won't need to buy a kit. b > > My blood pressure's never been high...ever.

Guest guest Posted October 18, 2004 Report Share Posted October 18, 2004 Albertson's delivers groceries? Hmmm, now there's an idea. think I'll call them. Re: weight loss have you tried ordering groceries online, like at albertsons.com and stuff? you could put in cigarettes i bet. might be useful if you don't have a car. i don't mind your crankiness or cynicism--i've been there. i'm sure the rest of us have. best, baron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 18, 2004 Report Share Posted October 18, 2004 I called Albertson's in the next town up the highway (there's none in this hick town). They do NOT make home deliveries. I called the nearest other supermarket...FoodMaxx...no deliveries either. I'm SOL, I know. ' It's okay tho. I walked 2 miles up & back, in pain, to the local gas station market for a few things this morning as the weather was clearer, warmer & no wind but just overcast. Tho they don't sell much produce..just bananas & some onions mostly... & the rest is rather junk food stuff. Couldn't carry much back home tho. Not to worry tho...I'll get a ride for the bigger food shopping again in a week or sooner. I've got enough for now. Re: weight loss yeah or go to their website, albertsons.com and check it out!

Guest guest Posted October 20, 2004 Report Share Posted October 20, 2004 Maxine, I wish you the best! I hope the Armour works well for you. Keep me posted on how you do! in Va. >I did lose weight as well. I think I lost about 30 lbs. Were you exercising too? I was walking daily. in Va. --- Thanks , That's good to know. I haven't been able to lose weight for over 10+ years. Not to mention, I've been pretty distracted and stressed out in grad school. I pledged this year, before graduation (Sp 2005), that I would lose 40-50lbs. I've been working at it all year. I've lost 8lbs!! I'm up to exercising 5-7 per week (long walks, gym, wt training) and the weight is NOT budging. That's when I started feeling discouraged and started reading books. I stumbled on Shomon's books. Hypo never crossed my mind. I'm 52years old, and I have no idea what my normal wt is anymore. I think I'll know it when I feel it?? I've never been thin -- that's not my goal, anyway. However, I am wanting muscle tone and agility (lots of yoga). So, we'll see how things progress once I start taking the Armour. In my earlier years, I was pretty good at getting it off pretty quickly (8-10lbs p/wk). However, keeping it off was another challenge. I'll be patient with myself and maintain a sensible eating plan and lots of activity/exercise and hope for the best. Maxine RE: Re: Check this out everyone H i, Maxine, I did lose weight as well. I think I lost about 30 lbs. Were you exercising too? I was walking daily. in Va. , I too tried eating 60-70% raw. It was terrific. I felt great!! However, I had incredible flatulence and indigestion whenever I would eat any cooked food. However, I loved the added energy and how it made me feel, but the downside of eating cooked food made me feel terrible for a couple of days afterward. I continued reading about it, an author suggested dousing myself with additional enzymes before eating a cooked meal (from time to time). I bought lots of non- cook books for variety. I work at home and have lots of time on my hands to prepare the fresh/raw meals (it's pretty time consuming). Lots of benefits -- lots of work. However, I couldn't sustain it long term though. My goal was to feel better and to lose weight. I felt terrific. The weight hardly budged! Good luck, Maxine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
