  1. Hello I am looking to connect with people who has hypothyroidism and have had the gastric bypass surgery.
  2. Starwarsandcupcakes, my med bottle says the same. How has you weight loss been since your revision? @maven, have you had your surgery already very? All of our stories are similar in ways!
  3. @rusnj1 I had my bypass on 12/24/20, currently down 23 lbs since surgery. Yes I was feeling the same way, but when I spoke with both my nutritionist and my dietitian they stated that was good weight loss. I mostly definitely get were your coming from especially when some people that I have seen lose 15 lbs a week, it can be discouraging but try to stay positive.
  4. @TreeTrunks I get my labs drawn every 4 months to check my levels, my labs are due in 2 weeks. I will let you know if there is a major change in them.
  5. @TreeTrunksyes, that's why I take my thyroid medicine so early in the morning so by 10-10:30am I can take my next supplement. My doctors told me I can eat anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour after levothyroxine, so we take them similar. They recommend 4 hours after thyroid meds so there is no potential for absorption interference, then 1 hour in between next supplement. Do you see an endocrinologist?
  6. @TreeTrunks, I also take levothyroxine what I do is take it first thing in the morning between 5am and 6am. Then you can take your other pills like multi vitamin, omerprozale, and calcium 4 hours after your thyroid meds. I usually have protein between 30 minutes to an hour after taking my thyroid meds. Why do you wait so long to eat after yours?
  7. @Elizabeth Smith, hello I am currently on stage 4 diet mainly all proteins. I advance to full solids in 2 weeks. Wow thats a lot of weight loss in 2 months, why are you malnutrition. Are you getting in your daily protein and water intake?
  8. I am down 21lbs currently, my first month is tomorrow. Yes i feel it has been slow moving for me as well.. My first 2 weeks I have lost 7lbs, then 3 lbs the last 2 weeks. Congrats on hitting 41lb weight loss. @ksgypsy
  9. Yes I was having the same issue with being able to lose weight, weight loss has been slow. I am half way through week 4 and current weight loss is 14lbs. The months leading up to surgery i worked hard to loss 30lbs. I wanted to create this group so I could share my experiences with ppl who have hypothyroidism and see if we are experiencing the same challenges with weight loss after surgery. How us your weight loss @Deb9386
