Okay, here is the deal... 

I have been working out six times a week...  30-45 min. a day at a fairly high intensity level.  I have been eating 1400 calories a day divided between 5 meals/snacks a day.  I have been choosing whole grains, lean proteins, raw fruits and veggies, etc.   I drink a minimum of 80 oz. of water a day, I take high quality vitamins/supplements, etc. 

I have not lost one single pound.  I have not lost any inches either. 

So...  that is why I was going to the doctor yesterday to talk about the possibility of a thyroid problem.  However, my thyroid levels are normal...  right smack in the middle of normal. 

Here is what I am going to try...  I am going quit taking all of my supplements, except for my daily multi-vitamin for 4-6 weeks.  The thinking behind this is that maybe the supplements are masking a problem.  We'll see.  I'll go back at that time for more blood work.

I really don't know, but I do know something has got to change.  I am the heaviest I have ever been (except with some of my pregnancies) and I am tired of not being as healthy as I should be. 

I am worried that I will be absolutely miserable without my supplements.  I will really need to stay in prayer!  I will also need to be extra careful about keeping my blood sugars stable...  so as not to aggravate the hypoglycemia. 

I have been reading a lot about wilson's syndrome and thyroid disorders...  I do have a lot of the symptoms, but many of these symptoms also go with hypoglycemia and/or candida.  My first choice would be supernatural healing!  That would be nice!   

Please, keep me in your prayers! 

And by the way, I stayed in bed most of the day and feel a lot better now.
