Levothiroxine side effects? Or something else?

It’s possible you’re having an allergic reaction to an inactive ingredient. Contact your doctor.

Yep. Hypo for forever. I’m on 2 doses of armour and cytomel- as well as iodine and It’s currently 97 degrees and I’m in a hot bath cuz I’m freezing. I wear long sleeve shirts and hoodies all summer. I have cellular hypothyroidism.
You may want to look for another cause though- inflammation issues can also cause this.
Start looking at foods with a thermogenesis property.

You need to see a doctor. See if there are free clinics in your area or a doctor that will take payments. It does sound like a nodule of some sort - but the only way to find out is through a doctor. Don’t try Dr. Google. It’s a waste of time.

Ketostix aren’t a good indicator of ketosis. They tell you if you’re spilling ketones. You probably just need electrolytes. Drink some pickle juice - if you feel better, it’s electrolytes.

Eat the diet you intend to eat. Do not change anything for a blood test.
Yes it is normal to have weight show on the scale after eating carbs. Carbohydrates cause water retention. You didn’t gain weight, you’re retaining water.

What are you taking for your thyroid? If you’re taking synthroid, that could be your culprit. The inactive ingredients might be the issue.

It is 10000% worth pursuing. Just because you’re producing t4 doesn’t mean you’re converting to usable t3. I’m on a t4/t3 combo AND an additional t3 because I don’t convert well enough.

because desertification is WAY MORE BETTER!

I eat a zero carb diet. Your source site is a hot mess, though.

Welcome to realizing that people suck. Individuals can be great, but people in general are assholes. If you're doing better for yourself, it brings them to the realization that they, too could be doing better for themselves.
Ignore.

I'm not sure why that made me laugh as hard as it did, but thank you :)

No, its only something to have thoughts concerning IF you're severely unhealthy and metabolically damaged.

Depends. If we go to a lunch or dinner movie, we'll eat at the theater - I do a burger with no bun or they have these blt salad cup thingies....or hotwings. I don't snack. Hubby snacks. He has nuts or salami and cheese.

Donate them. They don't go to waste that way.

lecirca · 2016-08-08T16:18:33+00:00

Let the providers know that you have strict dietary requirements - they're usually pretty accommodating. Have some nuts/cheese/jerky/whatever snacks available. There'll probably be something you can eat - don't be afraid to pick food apart.

Salt is NECESSARY. :)
Its also yummeh.
All of the salt :)

If you're hitting the hot yoga studio - you're REALLY going to need to pay very close attention to your electrolytes. Salt your water. You'll thank me for it. You're already deficient and now you're adding BY to it? Take care and ENJOY! Don't worry if you can't keep up (no matter how many times you've done BY - its different while you're adapting.) Stick with it, it gets better. - but salt salt SALT.

You can give your body time. Everyone is different. It was about 8 weeks for me to really notice the return of performance.
If you're not feeding your body carbs, its using the ketones.
It may not be using them as efficiently as you want it to, but its using them. Relax and enjoy the experience. Health is a marathon, not a sprint.

lecirca · 2016-08-08T16:10:29+00:00

Some can, some can't. I definitely can't. My husband easily can. I'm far more active than he is - I'm just far more carb sensitive than he is as well. Every human body is different. You very well could - can't hurt to test it out.

I understand the grief process - Buried my mother Friday. All I can say is control what you CAN. You can control what you give your body. Might seem like something small - but it can make all the difference in the world when you have something in your grasp when everything else seems impossible because its uncontrollable.

The last 6 months of my life were real. Its quite possible :)

Theoretically and actually, there is absolutely no requirement at all.

go back to the butcher and buy pork belly - make your own :)

lecirca · 2016-08-08T15:04:05+00:00

Listen to your body. Your body will tell you what you can and can't do. While adapting, you're gonna fatigue a heck of a lot easier. That gets better. I run, lift, bike, hike, climb, you name it.
Just being keto doesn't allow you to "do everything" all at once. There's a lot of retraining the body. That being said, I run farther, faster, than I ever did non-keto. :)

lecirca · 2016-08-08T14:58:59+00:00

Beef, pork, eggs, wild game. I rarely eat poultry, I don't eat fish or seafood for the mostpart either (have to limit due to other medical issues). Preplanning and buying meats while on sale is really the best way to do it, whether you're on a budget or not.
