PB's eclectic log

My wife had similar thyroid issues. Luckily her Dr says, "I don't care what the numbers say. I care about how you feel" and put her on T4 supplement.

It has helped a lot

Maybe I need a new doc. I can ask to see the endocrinologist

Thanks

Been 100% on my diet but the scale hates me. Up this morning: 127#

Can't let that screw with my motivation.

PF day today, cardio this afternoon and quads tonight

Rest day and cheat meal day as I'm out of town. I'm bringing my son on his first airplane trip. We're visiting family in the Bay Area.

And TBT


Me, a year ago.

Have fun, enjoy the city! Does your son like fish?

He does, but I don't.
We visited my dad, my sister, and her family. My sister takes care of my dad.
At the beginning of the thread I mentioned these past few months have been tough. One of the tough things has been my dad's failing health. His age is catching up with him. He has some dementia- good days and bad days- limited mobility, poor hearing and eye sight. He has prostate cancer and lymphoma, but the doctors aren't worried about either at his age. He'll be 95 on Tuesday, God bless him! He was in good spirits and still has a great sense of humor. Really glad we were able to make the trip.
My boy was great at the airport and on his first flight.
Went off diet most if the day. Weighed in lighter this morning at 126.2. Wtf, scale??? But I'm not complaining- just doesn't make sense

Back at it today

Thyroid issues can be a real challenge to address. My wife struggles with hers.

Don't hesitate to see an endo/shop around until you find the one that will help you. Like most hormonal issues, cookiecutter approaches generally aren't effective.

Good luck, PB!

Exactly!!! My OBGYN took care of everything except Thyroid.

Still holding at 126.2. I know I need to add more cardio (currently approximately 1x/week), particularly HIIT if I want the scale to budge. Also need to tighten.up diet. Been a little loose since my trip to San Jose
PV day today

2 pain pills yesterday, no sleeping pills. Listened to a relaxation meditation podcast to help me fall asleep. Got a decent night's sleep.

I did hams at the gym last night: single leg kbell sldl, nordic curls, lying curls, standing curls, seated curls: 15 sets total. Threw in a little high rep/low rest/light weight shoulders, and as always glutes for good measure

Happy Tuesday, friends!
