[Energy Bootcamp]

The beginning of your journey to get more energy, sleep better, and lose weight...

I have a friend who happens to be a doctor… and I remember the first time I asked him “what can you tell me about the thyroid?”

He said (as a friend to a friend) “if you need hormones you’ll have to take them for the rest of your life”...

That’s it.

That’s all there was to it…

In... his...mind…

… as seems to be in the minds of most doctors...

In my mind, I refused to accept that as my faith.

Inside, I shook my head “no”... and said “uh uh” to myself. No way this will be a “forever” thing. The idea of going through this as long as I was alive was a nightmare.

Some days are worse than others.

A forever thing?

No way...

I needed to figure something out.

If I really need hormones, then sure, I’ll take supplements but most importantly I wanted to know why I felt tired all time and kept gaining weight no matter what...

I felt like I had so much to do and live but I felt so tired it made me depressed...

When I finally figured it out, I had my biggest epiphany about hypothyroidism… 

... the definition.

See I believe there is a huge flaw in the definition of hypothyroidism “underactive thyroid disease - meaning the thyroid gland doesn’t produce enough hormones”...

Here’s why I think it’s flawed…

If the ONLY problem was an underactive thyroid then taking more hormones should fix it right?

… but that’s not always the case.

I’ve met so many people who are tired all the time, can't get good sleep, have brain fog, losing their hair and keep gaining weight no matter what...

... even if they test normal for all their lab numbers!!

(makes you wonder why this is the only goal doctors have… to get your numbers to be normal, even if you don't feel normal)

Most doctors don't listen to you about your symptoms… to them, it's all about the lab numbers. Everything else is just in your head… 

... "there's nothing wrong with you"...

... "you're crazy"...

... "you need anti-depressants"...

Yes I worried about myself constantly and my anxiety was through the roof... why wouldn't I?

I felt burnt out... 

Something was wrong with my body and I couldn't figure out what...

... and all I wanted was my old self back before this happened...

The only solutions doctors offer are to medicate, radiate or cut.

I think I’ll keep my thyroid, thank you.

That’s when I realized my doctor’s ability to help me had ended...

If I wanted to get my energy back, get good sleep and lose weight again, I needed to go explore on my own.

Why is it that so many people are still fatigued, tossing and turning all night and gaining weight out of control even after 10, 20+ years of taking thyroid hormones, changing their diet trying every supplement that promises to help but nothing seems to work??

I remember back in 2012… I put on 32 pounds out of nowhere… this was just before the holidays too!... by the time holidays were over I was probably closer to 46 pounds heavier than I had been just a few weeks prior...

I was pushing over 200 lbs which was the heaviest I'd been in my life... 

It didn't matter if I ate or didn't eat, I would gain weight no matter what...

That’s when I came across a hypothyroidism education program that talked about how the thyroid works....

The program pointed out that the thyroid produces primarily T4 hormone, but the liver converts the thyroid hormone T4 into T3… (Hint: The body functions on T3 primarily, not T4)…

So even though the thyroid produces thyroid hormone, the liver makes it “active”.... That’s why when my liver was not functioning properly converting T4 into T3, I started getting brain fog, felt exhausted and gained weight out of control.

That’s why in my opinion… hear… me… out…

It. Is. Not. “Just”. An underactive thyroid…

It could be… but...

I have found it could be an underactive thyroid or a liver malfunction or BOTH… but not “just the thyroid”.

Makes sense?

It doesn’t end there, though

Once the liver converts the thyroid hormone T4 into T3, it needs to enter the bloodstream and get delivered to the cells of your body… this is where different toxins and hormone imbalances keep your body from using the thyroid hormone it just made.

Again, it’s not just the thyroid you need to worry about. There’s the liver, toxins, gut problems… I don’t even want to get into all the digestive issues and allergies I went through before I figured this out… including breaking out in hives with over ⅔… maybe ¾ of my body attacking itself...

It was painful just to watch.

That’s how I started to understand why there are many people who take T4 hormones and still feel like crap. 

Even people who switch to taking both T4 and T3 may still be struggling with autoimmune problems, weight and fatigue. That’s because they are not addressing the root cause.

Is it the thyroid?
Is it the liver?
Is it toxins?
Is it your gut?
Is it the active thyroid hormones T3 turning into “reverse T3”?

This is more or less the path I had to go through… 

Has it ever occurred to you that you don't have a thyroid problem?

That what you have is a gut problem?

... because I learned that the only thing that helped me get more energy, sleep better and lose weight was to work on my gut health... I needed to grow probiotics in my gut...

Once I figured this out, I went from feeling tired all the time to feeling alive... 

I started waking up feeling good... 

I started feeling like my old self again... normal...

I now have more energy than I did in my 20's and can do things I love doing like hiking, mountain biking, snowboarding, travel, etc.

So if you take thyroid hormones and it helps you feel normal, get energy, sleep good and lose weight, then congratulations, you’re set... 

... but if you don't feel normal...

... if you feel tired all the time... 

... have a hard time falling/staying asleep...

... have brain fog or anxiety...

... can't lose weight no matter what...

... hair is thinning or falling off...

... have gas, bloating, or constipation...

... heavy menstrual cycles...

... have low vitamin D (even after supplementing with 3,000 - 5,000+ IU's)

... you're spending hundreds on supplements like iron, selenium, ashwaghanda, turmeric, juices, pink drinks, etc...

... if no diet or any amount of supplements seems to work for you...

... if you've already tried working with naturopaths, registered dieticians, functional medicine practitioners and still have no answers...

... then [Energy Bootcamp] is for you...

When I looked to hire naturopaths or functional medicine practitioners they wanted $3,000 - $7,000+, not including labs and supplements...

I was already spending  hundreds on supplements that didn't work...

I was told I was going to have to take hormones for the rest of my life... that there was nothing I could do about it...

That didn't sit well with me, so I set out to figure it out and document my journey...

It took me nearly 7 years to learn how to design my own diet to get more energy, sleep better and lose weight... but it doesn't have to take you that long and you won't have to spend nearly as much because I'm now helping people design their own diet so they too can get more energy, sleep better and lose weight...
