[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 358418"] Many thanks Star and Congrats!! I recall a post from you earlier that was similar and also super helpful. I believe I might have more than one thing going on. Unbelievable. Spoke with- the doctor last night and he DID mention Wilson's Syndrome. But this diagnosis is a tad controversial. He has mentioned it before. My T4 is fine, but my T3 is not okay. The thought is that something bad is happening to my T3 thyroid hormone, which is the one we all need to lose weight. It might be an autoimmune problem. He is unsure how to treat it. I happen to see an anti-aging specialist tomorrow who has a reputation for understanding hormones. I am well aware that I have shown signs of insulin resistence as well and on my own have been (although inconsistently) trying to follow a diet similar to the one you mentioned. I don't eat bread, have limited sugar and have begun to eat 3 meals + two snacks daily. I have found that when I eat sweets or go out, I put on weight ALARMINGLY FAST. Too fast for any human explanation. I believe you totally understand this. It just is NOT explainable. I can eat small portions and exercise "extra." But the next day, I put on three (3) REAL pounds that do not come off. I have been amazed, saddened and stressed out by all of this. Now, I am semi on some meal replacement plan by [URL="http://www.usana.com"]www.usana.com[/URL] that are three low glycemic shakes a day and two bars, although sometimes I replace one of the bars with a Greek Yogurt. I will check into Activia instead. Do you take Meformin? How many days a week do you exercise and for how long? I have recently realized that jogging is doing me NO good. That was my latest attempt.
