Have you ever been through a really rough time in your life that you thought you would never be able to recover from......a time that made you believe that things were just never going to get better?
I have been there!! These rough and dark days were a result of my 10-year battle with my slow thyroid! YEP….you read that right! 10 years!
The reason I am sharing this with you today is because I want you to know that it truly is possible for you to overcome a sluggish thyroid.
My battle with my health started when I was 22. It was so shocking to me to suffer with so many symptoms at such a young age!
It felt like I woke up one day and all of a sudden I started to experience things like weight gain, insomnia, hair loss, extreme fatigue, and brain fog, yet I had no idea why I was experiencing these issues. Can you relate to this?
I started having a hard time getting out of bed before noon and it took every ounce of energy just to brush my teeth sometimes! I felt depressed about everything in my life including work, friends, relationships despite no issues with any of these!
I covered up symptoms with energy drinks and eating any food that made me feel better at the time......which only made things drastically worse!
Many years went by and I continued to ignore my health. I just thought that I was young and it would all go away. I continued to sabotage my body, despite it practically begging me for help! Do you feel this way?
Then, one morning, I woke up with a massive clump of hair on my pillow and I couldn't move to get to the bathroom. I was COMPLETELY devastated! I felt like my life was ending. My self-esteem was gone! My depression was at an all-time high! I didn't even recognize myself!
So what did I do? I went to my doctor begging for help, only to be given anti-depressants and the birth control pill. And guess what? This did absolutely nothing but made me feel awful and didn't help my problem at all! My fatigue progressively worsened and my weight continued to go up! I came to the conclusion that the pill weren't gonna do the trick. So I literally threw them out!
I loved to do research so I set out on a mission to figure this out myself. I spent hours and hours on the internet researching the thyroid and natural solutions.
I tried tons of expensive supplements and pills.
I tried eliminating gluten.
I spent thousands of dollars on expensive holistic doctors.
I bought several online programs that were just on the thyroid.
I found some relief, but it was always temporary. The fatigue and weight gain would always come back. A few more years went by and I was still not feeling the best.
I was so self-conscious and depressed. I just didn't want anyone to see me this way!
Something I had to ask myself was “Do I want to continue suffering...or do I need to find another way?
At that time, I wondered if this was just the way my life was going to be forever. Fortunately, I didn't let these thoughts take me over too long. I chose to fight back and regain the life that I deserved!
I know you can do this too!
I decided that this was a lesson for me......that there were greater things for me!
So what did I do? I dug my heels in and made a PROMISE!
I promised myself that I would be be tough and that I would figure out what was wrong with me! No matter what it took, I was going to do this!
I began taking more advanced training programs and worked with more and more clients. This was when my thyroid finally shifted more dramatically and my weight finally began to move to a more normal weight for me. And I was able to maintain much easier! I was so excited about being alive and loved myself again!
If you have ever hated yourself.....you know that feeling when you fall in love with yourself again! Do you want that feeling again?
I hope this has been helpful for you and you can find some relief that you are NOT alone!
