What Important Life Lesson Thyroid Disease Taught You
After 10 years of suffering many medical issues and battling what seemed to be a losing battle with my weight, I was finally diagnosed with thyroid disease. I didn't understand much about it except that I needed lifelong medication. I wasn't taking the medicine properly and also wasn't making a dent in my weight or fatigue battle. I thought that the magic pills would solve all my issues. To my frustration, they did not.
I have learned to help myself and take charge.
How Has This Lesson Changed Your Life?
Now I am doing more to help myself. I am reading the postings. I am also following the "In The Zone" recommendations. It is amazing the energy I have and the many health benefits that I feel now. I no longer feel helpless or alone in this battle. I also know how to realistically look at each day. I place more priority on my health.
Advice
- Life is meant to be lived abundantly. We mustn't miss out on the joys of life by letting our disease swallow them up. Stand strong. Most importantly, "stand."
