It's been a long time since I last posted, and I now know the reason I was having problems. I had so many horrible symptoms for so long. In June (2016) of this year I found I was Hypothyroid. Now that I have that knowledge, I researched it thoroughly and went on the Paleo Diet along with taking supplements, and I'm the healthiest I've been in ages. I have lost 13kg slowly and I plan to lose much more yet. I have reduced my TSH from 4.7 to 1.5, and my Thyroid Antibodies are a low 36 (<60). I'm low-carbing with awesome results. I'm Paleo, but I'm also following the advice of Dr Sandra Cabot (https://www.liverdoctor.com/) on Fatty Liver. Anybody who's overweight will be suffering fatty liver, and its more a sugar problem than a fat problem. Incorporating this into my daily routine has helped me no end. I have purchased 7 of Dr Sandra Cabot's Books. I think she's a real gem and they're helping me hugely!!!
