HELP!!!! I am in a quandry

[Guest guest]

Good Morning!

Okay, I need help. I while ago I posted about how well I felt and I still feel

good, but I am starting to have some problems. Like I am putting on weight

again, and at the speed of light again. I had initially lost five pounds when I

started taking Armour, some adrenal support and then other supplements. Now, in

the last three days I have put that back on in addition to three more pounds.

So an 8 pound gain. I don't eat sugar, refined processed foods or anything like

that. I eat fruits, veggies, some dairy (glass of milk with breakfast) and I

take a sandwich made from 8 grain whole grain bread to work every day, and we

eat lean meats. I have also started working out again finally for 30 minutes a

day. And I can clean the house now without tiring too easily.

But here I am gaining weight! I don't get it, what could I be doing wrong? My

medicines are as follows: Armour, adrenal glandulars, calcium, magnesium, zinc,

vitamin c, super b-complex (with additional vitamins c), nexium, allegra, DHEA,

iron, l-tyrosine, thymus caps (almost out, don't plan to get again), amino acids

(capsule form), chromium GTF and I had gotten some Cortislim way back and am

taking that since I didn't want to waste it. It doesn't work. I also circuit

train for 30 minutes every day and normal household stuff.

Help!!!!! What am I doing wrong? Is there anything else I could/should be

doing? I don't understand the weight gain, I'm at about 1500 calories a day so

I don't know what's up. And of course my husband had to have his 2 cent, eat

less, exercise more. I need not say I get REALLY mad....he sounds like all the

useless docs I had been to see. And all I have done to get him to understand

this, and I thought he was getting it. But no....the reason I am fat is because

I am lazy and eat too much! Kiss my A$$$$$ buddy! Yep, I told you I got

mad.....and he's my own husband too.

Anyway, hope you guys can help me out some. Have a great day!

How much Armour are you on? To gain that fast it HAS to be fluid retention, a

classic sign of too low thyroid. Maybe a slight increase is in order?

When you start using your muscles again, they respond by building

more muscle. Muscle weighs more than fat. So some of your weight

gain can be due to muscle gain, which is quite common. You may have

lost some fat, and gained more muscle, thus the scale increase!

Additionally, adrenal support can cause some weight gain. But I

suspect the above, plus the possibility of a touch of water

retention, which should go away. (I used to be a certified fitness

specialist)

Thanks Janie,

I know that muscles does weigh more than fat, but I have only been able to be

working out again for about a week or so. I don't think that I have built up

much muscle yet. It seems like the weight is coming on around my belly and

hips....the same place it always comes up. I know I can't fasten clothes that I

was able to put on a week ago. UGH!! I wish this all would go away!
