snuggie 4 Posted March 9, 2012 Thanks everyone for your support. Yes the hypothyroid is terrible! That was my Biggest fear, that I wouldn't lose anything after going through with the surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WhoozisAnyway 176 Posted March 9, 2012 I'm concerned about my hypothyroid too, although my doctor thinks my hypo may go away when I lose some weight. Fingers crossed! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
02/21/2012 0 Posted March 9, 2012 My Dr. says that being hypo doesnt cause weight gain. Im hypo so I know different. I hope my thyroid gets better as I loose weight.I have felt some changes in my gland since my surgery two weeks ago. After another month Im going to have my levels checked and meds adjusted as needed. Id love to be off synthroid! Didnt know that weight loss could cure hypo?

hadouni 301 Posted March 9, 2012 I've been on levothyroxine since my son was barn and I'd been taking OTC thyroid supplement for a couple years before that and I'm loosing at what I consider a decent rate. I too hope my thyroid gets a boost with the weight loss. I'd love to go off it someday! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
