Hey! I know you posted this a while ago, but maybe don’t do crossfit 3x a week. Is it all HIIT?? Or do you do a mix of strength training/LISS/HIIT? Because that can make a difference. We cannot consume enough calories to do high intensity often. I do maybe 2 workouts a week that are more heavy handed and i don’t allow myself to burn more than 350 calories. At this rate, you know that building muscle burns quite a bit of calories resting. That’s why it’s more important to build muscle than to really sweat it out all the time. I’ve been a slow and steady loser since I’ve incorporated a mixture of crossfit and strength training. My sister kicked my ass the last two workouts I’ve had with her at her gym and it takes me literally all week to recover. Probably because i don’t get in enough protein or water. It sucks lol. maybe switch up what your exercise routine is. I don’t think your diet is the problem here. Not really. And get you a trainer who better understands your nutritional needs. My sister plans special workouts just for me because she knows i cannot burn as many calories as a person who attends their gym. Just keep at it. You will get there eventually. I’m 235 and I’m so ready to see onderland too. Since it’s been like 2.5-3 weeks since you posted, what have you been doing? Have you found a solution? Lost any weight?

I was diagnosed hypo back in 2014 when my daughter turned 3 months old. I haven’t had my 100mcg of Levo since surgery 11/16/20. I struggled to eat and drink for the first 6 weeks or so, and adding ground up pills was even worse. It made me so sick. So when i asked my doctor for a thyroid panel around 9w post op (since my surgeon didn’t) they discovered that i most likely have hashimoto’s. I had an ultrasound done and it showed that i was riddled with nodules, goiters on both sides, and possibly an adenemoa on my left side. I’m finally seeing an endocrinologist but it will be the end of March before i get in. We are limited in specialists in my area so i have to wait or go to the bigger town 2 hours away. my TSH has gotten much better since surgery, though. So I’m just thankful for that because it could be way worse! I’m down exactly 40lbs today and an 12w post op. Hopefully things get better for me. Oddly i feel normal. I used to be so tired before surgery so I’m happy that I’m not exhausted 24/7. 🤣
