Hypothyroidism and weight loss question (please help)

Thanks for telling me your story I showed my husbands all these comments and he is feeling better about the whole thing. He is still scared for me but now he knows I can lose weight with hypothroid and wls. Thanks again....

Hi Sonya, I too am have a hypothyroid.  I had surgery in Sept 07 and have gone from a 5X to a 10/12.  I have had to have my thyroid med increased slightly since surgery, but it is the only med that has been increased.  I have dropped 12 other meds completely.  I have lost 194 lbs since surgery and 244lbs from my heaviest 8 months prior to surgery.  I still track everything that I eat and journal it daily.  I haven't deviated from the plan that my doctor gave me and my PCP has said I will always be on thyroid meds.  I wish you well on your journey to a healthier you.

Thanks for sharing this with me I showed it all to my husband and I think it has helped alot. I am so glad that everyone is doing so well. I know I will have to take my thyroid meds for the rest of my life but I am hoping to drop the high blood pressure meds and the beta blockers and a few more. I think I will feel alot better then. Again thanks so much.
