Heather, that is great that the thyroid meds are helping you! Yes, I am hypothyroid and have been on meds for like 11 years. My dr switched me to synthroid in November and I feel even better on that particular med.

ETA: I measured my bodyfat and I am in the normal range. I'd like to drop a few % points on that though. For weight... I was weighing myself at the gym on a good scale (dr office type). I don't like to compare two different weights from two different scales (not consistant enough for me) BUT... I have lost 2.5 lbs since this time last week (but on two different scales, so I don't feel like I can really count it).

I feel good - very motivated and healthy. The only thing that is bothering me is that I have been getting headaches everyday in the afternoon. I am guessing that it is b/c I used to eat a starchy or sugary snack in the afternoon (without watching portions - I mean, I would eat way too much at that time...) and now I have a cheese stick and a small handfull of triscuits. The headaches are probably a blood sugar thing.
