Catching Up..........

Boy, I sure did get behind in my posting. In my defense I had a busy few months... Christmas, then a 50th anniversary party for my parents and recently we've been getting bids for a room addition.

Things are better. The brain fog is gone, the midday fatigue a thing of the past. I still have some general tiredness... not going to climb any mountains soon. I've been on the same regiment of Cytomel (75 mcg), Synthroid (37.5 mcg) and 30 mg Hydrocort for about 5 months now.

The thing that is not better is the weight. 5 years ago I had followed the "Fat Flush" plan and was 65 lbs. lighter than I am today. Sigh. In my desperation... I went to a chiropractor and got my ears stapled. Yes, you heard that correctly. Ear stapled. Hurt like heck too. It is based on acupuncture. Here is a study that convinced me that it might just work. The study
and here is a picture of a stapled ear (not my ear).

Unfortunately the only thing I lost was a hundred dollars.

I'll try and update my blog next month. I'm hoping to add a informative post on Vitamin D and also hope to report amazing weight loss on a diet I am starting next week. hehe... Hey, a girl can dream, can't she?
