hypothyroid
Hi Cimart
I'm hypothyroid too, I was diagnosed about 13 years ago. I was 20 kilos overweight by the time the docs finally figured out was wrong. It took 12 months to get my dose right, and in those months I gained another 20 kilos.
I have been on low fat low cal high carb diets ever since, didn't lose one single pound, then in the last 18 months or so I've put on another 20 kilos
I had blood tests a few weeks ago, and although my dose has to be increased a bit, the main thing that showed up was that my liver enzymes were highly elevated. if your liver isn't functioning you can NOT loose weight.
I put myself on a low carb diet, and I just can not believe it - i'm finally loosing weight. This diet really works!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good luck lowcarbing, and you are absolutely right about losing weight slowly - slow and steady wins the race
bye
