That Wednesday crash is so normal — and it's almost never a willpower thing. It's that you changed five things at once and none of them had a home in your day yet. So here's what I'd do: pick one anchor meal — usually breakfast — and keep it identical for two weeks. Same food, same time. Boring is the whole point. Once it runs on autopilot, you add the next thing. Motivation is a spark, not the fuel — your routine is the fuel.

I want to be straight with you here: that's one I shouldn't answer from a chat. Fasting alongside a thyroid condition and medication depends on your labs, your dose, and what your doctor's already said — and I'd only be guessing. The general principle Lauren teaches is to change one variable at a time and watch how your body responds. But the actual call for you is a live conversation.
