That's easily done, unfortunately. When I used to go to Starbucks for my triple grande latte and coffee cake, that was 1000 calories, even before I got to work. If I had not been commuting by bike 28 miles a day, I would have gained alot of weight. When I stopped my morning Starbucks routine, I lost 20 lbs in two months without doing anything else differently.

I'm not a Fast Food person, but those combo meals easily add up to 1800 calories. Easily.

Donna, INSIST on the other thyroid tests. FIGHT for your RIGHT to have proper medical care and information. Don't give up on this.

And BE COMPLETELY HONEST with yourself about what and how much you are eating.
