I have too much weight and even if I don't gain weight anymore I don't lose it (I've lost 4 pounds recently but it's more an inexplicable up then down then up...). Not being able to lose the weight when you feel really good is just obsessing me and I can't really focus on my work so I really want to find some answers to be able to work better.
In France, doctors never wanted to make blood tests about my hormones and I never thought about doing a blood test directly to the lab. I will try to do that now but my wife is too busy and I don't speak Japanese, so it will probably be hard to do a test anytime soon.
My temp and pulse are fine, I don't really have any health problems anymore. I had dry eyes, and it's getting better. I have gynecomastia but it's getting better. My nose used to be congested and it's now better. I think my estrogen is getting lower but as long as I have fat I will have to do big efforts to keep it low.
I have had eye twitching for two months though. I tried some magnesium supplements, epsom baths, chocolate but it didn't do anything. I tried only for a few days so maybe I didn't more magnesium or for a longer time. This is the only problem I think can be concerning (magnesium deficiency could have an impact for my health).
And I don't have depression (just the opposite). I used to have headaches sometimes (a few times a week) and I don't have any anymore. So I don't feel like I have high serotonin nor endotoxin (I went to the restaurant a few days ago and ate ramen, I slept awfully and got flu-like symptoms the next day so if it is what endotoxin does I know it's not my problem because I never feel like that anymore). I don't have gas, normal digestion, no stomach pain or heartburn anymore.
I don't feel stressed or jittery or anything related to cortisol and/or adrenaline. Caffeine made me jittery when I started taking high doses and I never felt like that so I don't think I ever had very high adrenaline (and I now understand why people around me who are probably with high stress hormones seems to be easily get angry and react without thinking when they are hungry or tired). Rarely have cold hands and feet. My sleep is very good and even better than before.
I walk 5km on average. I stopped weight lifting a few months ago though. I think I will begin to sprint soon (my inability to run on even short distances bothers me a lot). My CO2 levels are probably very low (I can't hold my breath very long and my VO2 max is really bad).
I eat whole milk (it was low-fat milk until this week), juice, coke and some seafood/meat/eggs. I don't have problems with liquids anymore. I normally eat when hungry. I did a few days of calorie restriction and have eaten a calorie surplus before and nothing really change except my hunger.
I supplement with fat-soluble vitamins, caffeine, aspirin, niacinamide and thiamine (on and off for the last two, just to experiment and see if it makes a difference).
Are my stress hormones normal, or am I asymptomatic for some things I should react to? Doctors have been so incredibly bad at doing anything for me that I really don't want to spend money on them unless there is something wrong with me that I can't resolve myself.
Is my low CO2 the problem? Should I test my blood sugar? Could I still have a problem with stress hormones or endotoxin? How do I lose my body fat?
