Other health problems slow weight loss?

I had RNY on Jan. 21 and have currently lost only 23lbs. I understand we all lose at different rates, so I'm not looking for that kind of support. I am specifically seeking other slow-losers that may have subsequently discovered that there was an underlying cause. I believe that I have a low thyroid production, but levels are at the low range of normal so endocrinologist has not prescribed thyroid meds. But I feel that the "normal" range may not be normal for everyone. I have an appointment to see him on the 11th. So I am looking for more specific information to possibly share examples to him. He is the doc that recommended surgery to me in the first place. Thanks for the help.
