Apartments and Soy

May 14, 2007 09:57

First of fucking all, I HAVE AN APARTMENT!!!!!!!!!! The Oaks of Denton called me the other day to let me know that my apartment number was #19. And guess what folks? Apt #19 is right across from a fucking cemetery. I actually will have to walk through said cemetery to get to school.....and to anything else in town. Ah yes, walking through a ( Read more... )

Well I can say I had no idea about the potential neg. affects of soy...

I am surprised the AHA would reccomend a diet high in carbs. I hope the diet changes you are making help. I thought about going vegetarian for a while after reading about the chicken feed scare. I haven't touched chicken in a couple weeks, I'm wondering if it'll curb teh infxshuns.

Oh wait I get sidetracked by anything food-related.

Congratulations on the new place. You get the benefit of a peaceful neighbor usually, when you live near a cemetery, but eesh you're brave!

LOL, well, It's been weird for a while....but I'll get used to the cemetery thing I suppose. It's the walking through it at night thing that's gonna be the hardest.

The Oaks has a real strict noise, and party policy. So.....I don't think it should be a problem. It's right down the street from the campus, and on Greek Row, so they're strict about everything. LOL, you can't even had a visitor park in the parking lot w/o a guest pass b/c they have so many people try to park there for class. If you get caught w/o a parking sticker or guest pass--your shit is seriously towed.

LOL, it'll be interesting.

Well, I hope it does too. But, for real--like, I can't eat anything. EVERYTHING HAS SOY IN IT! Canned chili, soups, packaged bread, chocolate, baking goods, french fries. I just went to the store to take an inventory of what I could eat. There were literally ENTIRE FUCKING AISLES of shit I can't eat. Bread aisle, soup aisle, bakery....

Well, I've been soy-free all day, and I haven't felt stomach pains like I have been after I eat something......and I took a nap earlier and when I woke up my muscles didn't ache (they usually do if I sleep at all during the day). I also don't feel so fatiqued today. So, maybe it will help.

I hope the no-chicken thing helps! I was re-checking out the site I linked in this post, and there was a testimonial of this mother that had a 6 yr old w/ breasts developing. I bet that's why I used to be a B cup--and now I'm a fucking F cup. That combined w/ the weight gain.

I don't know, it's just weird. I can't believe more doctors aren't seeing the connection for thyroid patients.... *smh*
