Guest guest Posted July 28, 2001 Report Share Posted July 28, 2001 Hello, how is everyone doing? Am glad I found this club.. Will be nice to speak w/others that go through the same things!<br><br>My name is Sasha, i'm 21, from Wyoming. I went to my doc on July 17th, and found out I have an extremely underactive thyroid.. He has me on Synthroid...I have a follow up appt. August 8th..<br><br>I also have a bad weight problem, he said it's probably a big part from hypothyoidism.. So, now I have hope on losing the pounds again... I had weighed 265 at 15, and dropped over 100 pounds in less than a year at 16.. Gained some back over the years, and was 263 at my doc's appt. the 17th. Today I weigh 257... Hopefully something is working... <br><br>I'm on a low cal diet now, and trying to get as musch physical activity as I can, as I regain some energy. I was horribly fatigued before.. <br>How long does it usually take, to get over the fatigue?<br><br>Anyone else have weight problems associated w/hypothyroidism? Any tips on dealing w/hypothyroidism, and/or weight problems?<br><br>Again, am glad I found this club, I think this is just what I need! Hope to make some great friends along the way!<br><br><br>~Sasha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
