hypothyroidism and weight loss
by Ladyg45, Aug 20, 2005 12:00AM
I was told I had a thyroid problem in May I had it treated and now I have to deal with hypothyroidism. I had lost weight aprox. 45lbs. Now that weight seems to be returning. I am a walker I walk aprox 4-5 miles per day 5-6 days per week, I stop eating after 6:00pm daily. after reading the comments here all I read is the problems with losing weight after hypothyroid. I have or will began taking synthroid 125mlg. per day on Sunday. does anyone have good news about weight loss and maintaining it? I would like to reach my goal of 140. I am now at 172. I am 5'4" 52 years of age. Thank you in advance for your responses
