Test results

Well all my tests are back and here what I see from them.  I have Hashimoto's thyroiditis and am hypothyroid.  My estradiol, progesterone, and testosterone are all low, but testosterone is within range just on the low side.  DHEA's are low-normal and cortisol shows low adrenal reserve.  So at least all this explains why I have to fight SO hard to lose any weight, why I am tired with very little motivation, and generally just feel blah.  I am hopeful that when I talk with the Dr. on Wednesday she will have some ideas/ prescription whatever that will bring me back to the go go go girl I used to be.   Wish me luck!

I am already eating a good diet (the majority of the time), taking my vitamins, eating organic foods for the most part, and exercising so I should be off to a good start.

Growing up

I bought the boys a gingerbread house again.  I wasn't sure if they would do it or not.  Ethan decorated it really quick.  Tucker didn't even help.  I think this is probably the last year for the gingerbread house.  I also received a lot of crap because it was pre-built.  I didn't read the box.  I always get it at Costco.
