Wow, there seems to be a lot of goals at stake here. Katherine, you have it all planned out and this is awesome, however, "life happens" what I would do is have a plan "B" in case you have a set back some where along the way. Especially with the 'going out to eat with friends' this could be an awesome reward for each goal you have set for each month. Give yourself a reward along the way. Eating out with family and friends is a great break and you will be surprise to find Applebees is notorious for weight watcher meals and they're great!  Good luck.  Let us know how you do!!!

Hi txmom04,

I know exactly how you feel, I was hypo and didn't know it. My TSH levels are currently 3.36 by I am taking Levoxyl.   My T-4 is 1.2. Actually this TSH level may seem high but for me it's so much lower that it was. 6.3.  You are significantly better than I am.  Your acupuncturist is not a correct. 

You need to see an endocronologist if you still feel it may be hormonal.  My iron was super low and this was a major cause of my exhaustion. When I took my iron and was on the levoxyl I felt great in about 5 weeks. Not awesome but great, much better than I had is while.  If you are bleeding heavy there is an excellent chance you are deficient in iron.  I also have fibromyalgia.
