Question for Sleevers with hypothyroidism....

[JMS 16]

I just a couple weeks Pre-Op, Once sleeved was wondering if people with hypothyroidism share similar results with weight loss or is it slower?

[SMO 193]

I have had a partial thyroidectomy and I take 50mcg of Synthroid a day. I was sleeved 2/4 and in the days since, have lost 11 pounds. I think that is comparable to what most others have lost.

[oklafarmgal 31]

I take 75 mcg's of levothyroxine a day. The surgeon has never said anything about my weight loss being any slower. Hopefully not!! Good luck......

I take 40 mcgs of Synthroid daily and I'm actually ahead of what my surgeon estimated for me. I am 2 months out and down 70 pounds total. (30 preop, 40 since surgery).

I take 200 mcg. Bottom line if your TSH is betwern 1 and 2.5 you should be fine.

I've had hashimoto's for 11 years. I am on 125mcg of levothyroxine. I was sleeved on the 17th of December and have lost 36 pounds. My doctor is pleased with my weight loss ad has said it's above average.

I have hypo as well. I am about 4 weeks out. About 22 lbs. just did physical and now my meds are off. Changing from 125 to 100 mcg. Doc said may or may not effect WLS. Said if i follow program should have not much of an impact. But each person is different.
