My naturopath suggested that I cut corn and soy from my diet and introduce coconut oil. I'm supposed to eat 2 tsp of coconut oil/day. 3 months later, my thyroid tested normal. But it is very hard to avoid corn and soy. ============================================ 155: After regaining 16 pounds. It's my goal again. 155: Goal Weight \| March 17, 2012!!!! I did it!

Maybe just a 3o minute walk in the afternoon. Standing all day..should count for some exercise, I would think. Let us know how Saturday goes? ~Citymouse

I was diagnosed with high blood pressure because I was forced into a health screening at work which eventually led to a reveal about my thyroid. Now I am on daily meds and really hate it. My aim is to learn to focus on taking care of myself & develop healthy habits. Exercising - I'm the worst. I have started trying to consume more coconut like Losin25, too soon to know if anything I am doing is working at all. Hope to hear back from you.

I'm not sure that coconut oil alone will do the trick. Here is a short summary of what most doctors recommend. Good luck! Getting control of your blood pressure will improve your quality of life immeasurably!

by member SistaBigBones Drink lots of water. If you can, try drinking the Benefiber packets in your bottled water. It keeps you feeling full which helps during the detox phase and it helps with bloat, belly fat, and energy. 27 Jun 10 for diet Fat Smash Diet
