Blog: Juicing for 30 - take 2!!!
I had my physical. Everything was good, mostly. My thyroid is normal without meds!!! That's great news, as I have had hypothyroidism for years. My cholesteral is down 20 points! That's great news, too. But my kidney's tested abnormally. My urine was too alkaline, and I was spilling protein. I knew it was because of the fast, but I didn't really want to say that. I have to have it retested in a month or two. It isn't a serious problem, they just want to see what it is doing. I didn't tell my doctor I was fasting. I didn't think she'd understand. I asked if the results could be from a very low calorie diet, and she said you see them with Atkins people. I knew that would be the case. I told her I was vegan, however. Oh - and my white blood cell count was low.
I will go back in july and follow up. I'm sure everything will be fine and dandy then!
I go out of town on Friday! I'm so excited! I have my outfit together for going out for the Bachelorette Party. I got a white strappy tank top that is dotted swiss and just adorable. I'm wearing it with black fitted pants and black wedge sandals. I will wear my new silver jewlery. It was such a rush to be able to go to a store like forever 21 and be able to wear size small shirts! I will probably update again quickly Thursday, then not again til Monday!

I have hypothyroidism, too! And that is one of the things I want to get tested when I am finished, because I am hoping that the fast will cure it like it has for you. Your entry has given me so much hope. You and I both know it's supposed to be "incurable", and that you "will be taking your hormones for the rest of your life". Yeah! Now I am pumped about finishing my fast. Thanks!
By the way, have you noticed that your moods have leveled off since starting the fast?

I love hearing about other's medical testing during fasting. I did the same thing and was thrilled to see what awesome health I was in. My thyroid had regulated during fasting as well. It also stayed that way UNTIL I went haywire with my diet and got pregnant. Pregnancy causes your thyroid to get off balance, some more than others.
Glad to hear how great you're doing. Have a fabulous weekend and be good! ;-)
