Loss

Today is the first time my weight has moved downwards in ages. Doctor just confirmed that my thyroid has slipped into under active but I will have to wait for medication until I see the specialist. She was also concerned about my Cortisol levels which were elevated. She called it the fat hormone which holds on to fat.

Considering that I put on weight on our 500 mile walk when I slipped into under active thyroid function, it is no surprise that I have not lost and quite an achievement that I did not put much on.

So I am just going to carry on doing what I am doing and be proud of my achievement without making the outcome (read weight loss) a condition to carry on or evidence of success.
