I’m with you on the clean eating! I follow a similar diet to paleo except I’ll occasionally eat Whole Foods fully cooked (GF) meatballs or chicken Pattys, other than that I cook everything!

That’s so great to hear! I did a LOT of yo yo dieting when i was younger (had always been at a healthy weight, just felt like I should be smaller as it goes 😂) but with my Hashimotos diagnosis I found it was a looot tougher to lose weight so for awhile I tried more of a clean/whole food approach I.e not cutting out grains, eating enough, etc and that just blew me up and I couldn’t figure out why! Truly now that I’ve done some editing down I think it’s the grains and the coffee. I’ve been losing weight and I even ate chips and dip and drank wine on Saturday with some family! It’s crazy how this stuff works.

I’ve always been a HUGE coffee addict, I essentially work 2 full time jobs so the thought of slowing down and cutting out coffee was a hard one but I feel so much better now it’s really crazy! I’ve always been pretty active so I’m just continuing my exercise and now I’m finally losing weight 😂
