I don't think I'll be exercising much anytime soon, but that is why I appreciate this diet. I can still lose weight, though slowly.
I am going to try to take a "stroll" 2-3 times per week starting next Monday, but I cannot break out into a big sweat. It works my endocrine system too much and then I get symptoms: Depression, weakness, more mental fog, sensitivity to light and sound. If it gets real bad and I go too low on salt, then the blood pressure plummets and I have NO energy.
I am trying to get used to the idea that I likely will be taking thyroid (and maybe adrenal) meds. I really am hoping I can get away with just thyroid med.
Everyone around here is getting real hungry.

I think it takes some getting used to that when you go on a starch based diet you fill up, yes, but then you get hungry faster. Grazing seems to be what we have to do in this house.
We are going to bake some meat for the children tonight. We still allow them meat about 2-3 times per week and we haven't let go of the raw cow milk for the little children. I am hoping to transfer to almond milk/frozen fruit smoothies gradually and let that last dairy item go. Although, my children do eat dairy like cheese when we entertain and also on Sunday at lunch.
I did lose some weight the past two days, and dh is doing the same.
