Default I fell off the wagon and need to encouragement!


I am on the horrible merri-go-round. I was to busy to get to store...been eating foods that I know I should not!,......so I am tired....to tired to get to the store....so I eat foods I should not....so I am tired....to tired to get to the store....so I eat foods I should not...........

I believe I am still deep in the middle of this candida saga....within moments of eating a questionable food - my face swells....from water retention.

I need to get off this darn ride.

You can do this! You know what you have to do, you know your energy will increase if you just get out to the store and buy stuff you know you can eat. Take your supplements, it just takes time. YOU CAN DO THIS! You don't have to keep living like life is a big pain in the ass all the time. I was there, I know it sucks a ton, but I have come out on the other side and its pretty over here! Just pick yourself up and just go to the store. Don't buy EVERYTHING you need, but just buy enough for two days.

Are you supplementing your vitamin D enough? Is your thyroid meds up to date and current? How are your iron stores?

Have faith and persevere!

Thank you Aetheana............I "think" that my thyroid meds where what started the slide. My med level seems to go in waves.....When I was following the diet/supplements/meds/nystatin.....I was feeling great....then in hindsight I think I felt my thyroid meds slipping. - the good news is when everything was going well......I a 100% sure my antibodies level was down really low (I hope..) .

I know I need to get my sh.t together again...next dr. appointment is in 2wks....and I hate going to see he when I feel like crap - so I need to get healthy.

THANK YOU AGAIN!

I try to make a lil extra food so I don't always have to cook and can go grab a quick something out of the fridge.......but it IS hard when it's shopping day and there's nothing in the fridge and too tired to make anything or go to the store.......I'm disciplining myself to go to the store every so many days to keep stocked up. Finding more food choices helps to be more enthused.

If anything I try to keep eggs in.......don't know if you can have them, but I find they are a snap to make when there is nothing else.

I also made myself dessert using plain gelatin, lemon juice, and stevia........came out good.

Aeth..........congratulations from the heart........I mean that........your day is what I focus on. I can't wait to have that feeling. I just wish I could find a doctor here like yours. Feel lucky.....maybe I'll get to feeling a lil better soon and get fired up about looking even harder for another doctor.
