361. Tracking Food and Losing 14 lbs. After Thyroidectomy

In this podcast, we tend to place a unique emphasis on the individual journeys of thyroid patients. Each story shared is a beacon of hope, a testament to progress, and an ode to the indomitable human spirit that finds its way back to wellness. These personal narratives highlight the challenges faced, the battles fought, and the joy of reclaiming life. Every time a guest shares their story, it resonates deeply with my listeners. Many reach out, expressing how these tales mirror their own experiences, often feeling as if they were hearing their own challenges and triumphs being voiced.It's truly heartwarming to witness the ripple effect of sharing. The power of a single story can inspire, motivate, and even propel someone to take the essential steps toward their healing journey. While women predominantly face thyroid and hormone imbalances, it's crucial to recognize that these challenges know no boundaries. Whether you're a man or a woman, the central message remains unchanged: change is possible, hope is tangible, and your story could be the guiding light for someone else navigating the same path.In this episode, Sarah McFarland delves into her distinctive journey of undergoing partial thyroid removal due to a nodule and then being on T4 medication for several years. It was only after the emergence of another nodule, leading to a complete thyroidectomy, that she began grappling with weight gain, pervasive brain fog, and relentless fatigue. Determined to uncover solutions, Sarah teamed up with me. Join us as she unfolds her transformative story, detailing how meticulous food tracking became the key to her weight loss breakthrough, even post-thyroidectomy!Shop ALL of Dr. Amie's Fixxr® Supplements:Fixxrsupps.comSubscribe to my Text Club: Text DRAMIE to 8332631365LET'S GET YOUR LIFE BACK...Connect with Dr. Amie HornamanBook a free discovery call: https://dramiehornaman.com/pages/book-a-callMY FAVS…Want to know what Dr Amie‘s favorite companies are that she uses on a daily basis plus grab a sweet discount?
