Fighting Hashimotos Hypothyroidism

After trying and trying to lose weight, I'm giving up.


On that style ;)

I was diagnosed with Hashimotos  hypothyroidism 4 years ago. I've been taking medication and lately, it just doesn't seem to be working. Every so often I start reading more and more about it, especially because more studies come out everyday.
Two years ago I had done a "candida cleanse" and lost about 1 pound a day. Thinking back on that weight loss, and reading about cutting dairy, soy, and gluten, a lot of that I had cut for the cleanse.

So here I am taking a leap.
My goals:

Gluten Free
Dairy Free
(I'm already soy free...)
30 minutes of exercise 5-6 days a week
Lose 10% of body weight by September 27th (my parents 30th anniversary party) That's about 23 pounds.
Doable?

Well I hope so!

Here's to the future! Follow my journey!
