How has your Friday been?

I took my quiz and made a 100% for college! We ventured out to the store this evening to buy a handful of groceries while Katie spent time with my Mom, like usual.

After learning more about my current health condition, I know that in able to feel like *ME* again, I would have to have a proper Doctor do certain tests to see why my immune system is attacking my thyroid……. but sadly, we don’t have the money for that, seeing as it would be a speciality Doc where we would have to pay ourselves. I gotta take this into my own hands. I don’t know *exactly* what is causing my immune system to go crazy and affect my thyroid, BUT I can take steps to try to help my body.

I’m gonna try my best to…… 1) go as gluten free as possible. it’s gonna be a challenge with our a tight budget, but i’m gonna make it work. 2) take herbal supplements to support my adrenals and thyroid. 3) get a hold on my eating habits and portion control. its gotten way out of hand for a long while. 4) test and tweak diff things in my diet, depending on how I feel. 5) drink veggie juice!!

I’m not gonna just sit back and never get this figured out. I will!!!!!!!!!! I know the natural thyroid meds I have been taking *might* help lessen my symptoms (well, so far it hasn’t), but I want to get to the ROOT of the problem and try my best to manage it. I bought some Rice Chex (gluten free) cereal and I forgot how much I love Rice Chex cereal. Too much in fact, hah.

Off to hang out with my love!
