| Introduction | Back in early 2010, I was in pretty good shape. Around my 25th birthday, I started falling in love with my best friend and the best thing that ever happened to me! Later that year, I switched jobs. I went from a job where I was on my feet all day long to my current job, which I really enjoy. Unfortunately, it is very sedentary. New Years Day, 2011 the BF and I moved in together. Between being sedentary and cooking meals every night weight started to creep back on I also was not as active as I used to be. The stress and unhappiness was part of what was driving me to work out back in 2009. Now being blissfully happy, it was not as much of a priority for me. Fast forward Aug. 2011 and after being extremely tired for the past few months, I went to see my Doctor. Turns out my TSH was very high causing me to have hypothyroidism. This condition causes rapid weight gain, lethargy and can make you feel pretty sad. A year and about 50 pounds later, here we are. As of August 1st, my thyroid level is normal. So, now we have to see if it will maintain and start chipping away at those 50 pounds. I still have pretty tired days, but I know I have to get moving. So, that is what this blog is about! |
