SWEET TEA

Tuesday, November 29, 2011

Body Talk.

I've been stressed out lately.
Then I've felt guilty for being stressed out.
Then I've felt stressed out for feeling guilty
about being stressed out.
Get my drift?

Now I think I've figured out my problem!!
My thyroid medication is too high.
I've adjusted the dosage and am
feeling more like myself.

Doctors tell us to listen to our body.

My body is saying . . .
  1. Adjust your thyroid medication
  2. Get more exercise.
  3. Take off a few pounds.
  4. Go easy on the holiday treats
  5. Yada...Yada...Yada...
My body is so darn bossy!

I'm right there with you. I also take thyroid medication. I don't know if that stresses me or if it the holidays and being far from my chicks, because that always is a major stresser in my life. I then have an anti anxiety med because of that and I then feel guilty taking that too often. It's a never ending circle of stress. Maybe is's a woman thing. I don't know???

Its a cycle isn't it. Add seasonal expectations in the mix just pushes up the stress levels. Take care of you.

Yea for lower thyroid doses. My doc just gave me permission to lower mine a tad. I've had to be purposely HYPERthyroid for over a year to keep my tumors from growing. Amazing how you say horomone and woman in the same sentence and we all want to run...but we can't run from ourselves, so we lower the meds. Glad you're feeling better.

My body is really bossy too! And I'm with "Just Stuff"; I take thyroid meds but always have some stress in my life.

One thing I don't have - yet - is thyroid - so how do you know your amount was too much?

Anyway I kind of feel the same way you do - and no thyroid medicine!

I take thyroid meds too but I wish it would be enough to make me thinner! That would be one less thing to stress me out...this time of year always stresses me. I feel bad about it because it's suppose to be so dang happy..isn't it?

Looking at the comments I think we all have bossy bodies. You are too funny, I love reading your posts. And you are right about my daughter feeling better is the best gift! She just amazed me like night and day, and too think they were going to put a pacemaker in... glad that did not happen. PTL!
until next time... nel

I hope that vicious circle leaves you feeling well and stress free and leaves your body saying lots of nice things to you.

Good thing you know what your body is saying to you! I'm sure the princess thanks you, too!

I'm with Yaya (as always...) - the thing that stresses me out is all the eating. I have such a good time doing it, but oh... the remorse after the fact. You'd think I'd learn, but I don't.
