Makeover what?!!

Endocrinology--the study of the glands and the hormones of the body and their related disorders. 

Endocrinological Makeover: The process of changing one's diet and lifestyle in order to feel human again :) 

I grew up in a family where you would talk "blood sugar" like you would the weather. Getting low? All you needed was to give the LBS "cue" and you were immediately fed cheese intravenously :) Although I was not immune, I felt a little outside of the "blood sugar loop" since I couldn't sense these drastic swings in my body like others could...  

Enter pregnancy. Woooow. All of the sudden I went from riding the blood sugar carousel to plunging down a very scary rollercoaster (stole my friend Rocio's analogy)....  which has forced me to slash my daily activities to 1/3 of what I used to do... A doctor at progressive medical explained to me that I probably have adrenal fatigue/low functioning thyroid... and I know hypoglycemia completes this set of mind-bending triplets. 

So now I'm forced to go radical--that is--assuming I want to live a semi-normal life :). I plan on logging every bite of food and every supplement---as well as when and how they made me feel... Not an easy task, but invaluable since attention to detail and self-discipline don't come naturally to me. 

All right...here we go!!!
