I was on armour too - never took synthetics - I was too afraid of them. I always heard that you could never get off of them. So glad that I don't have to worry about the goiter problem anymore. It was terrible.
Read your post in the forum. I got over autoimmune thyroiditis over 1 &1/2 yrs ago & got off meds for thyroid as well. Still have very slow metabolism, so weight loss i hard even on raw. I eat very little. I'm never really hungry. Have you had similar experiences?
we're practically neighbors!! i live in the tower grove/shaw garden district...near the bot. garden. good luck with the aromotherapy & esthetician training.... perhaps we'll run into each other @ whole foods or bikram some day :)
welcome fellow st. louisian! :) honestly i was soo excited when i saw your profile...i think you're the first person from stl i've seen here. i'm a bikram junkie too and also teach yoga...also hot yoga at a studio in il. where are you at in stl? know any raw foodies in the area yet?
You replied to my post on the BED forum a long time ago...sorry, i'm only responding now. In answer to your question, I guess I am doing fine. My binges haven't gone away and that's of course, frusterating. Usually I'm good in the begining of the week then as the week progresses, (as I get more stressed?) I binge. Usually after I binge one day, I binge the next. This week I did have a binge on Thursday but then that was it, back to high raw on Friday and doing well so far. It's wierd talking about it so casually. I guess becuase you get use to keeping these things a secret and supressing them but I digress. How is your raw journey/BED recovery going?
I love your photo it is artsy, glamorous and mysterious all in one! I finally tried Bikram Yoga for the first time in Sacramento WOW Loved it! But I think it is best when it is cold outside? Not sure if I would do it during Summer time...
Hey coco (your name reminds me of a song by one of my favorite groups, Zap Mama)- you said that wheatgrass helps control your appetite. Do you buy wheatgrass? What do you do with it? I'm thinking of incorporating it into my diet but am not sure in what way. Buying wheatgrass shots seems expensive.
