Think you have an underactive thyroid? Here’s when to seek help
It’s painful and frustrating to feel like you’re trying harder than anyone to lose weight,
Can you lose weight with hypothyroidism? Yes, but it sure is a bumpy road. Doctors diagnosed me with hypothyroidism in early 2018. Like many with the disease, I was exhausted and always wondering, why am I gaining weight? I barely ate, I worked out a lot, and yet the pounds kept piling on.
I looked everywhere for answers to the questions I was asking, but couldn’t find anyone documenting their experience. Navigating the doctor’s office was a nightmare because I didn’t know where to start. So I’m creating the place for other people to start from. I want this to be a resource for everyone with the disease, whether you’re starting out on your journey or dealing with hiccups in the prescription that’s been working for years.
So that’s what I’ll do for you. Want to know what questions to ask your doctor about hypothyroidism symptoms, causes, and outlook? Want to know how long it takes a real person to lose weight with hypothyroidism? I’ll be documenting everything I go through, what works and what doesn’t for me, and the advice I find key to weight loss with hypothyroidism.
Follow me as I share my journey trying to achieve sustainable weight loss with hypothyroidism. I’m not sure how long it will take, but we’ll get there together and I’m here to answer all of your questions.
