Re: Thyroid Disease after surgery??

[Guest guest]

I have hypothyroid and I lost 165 pounds with the surgery. I still

take my synthroid everyday, in fact it might need to be raised(my

opinion, I havent had it checked yet). Hypothyroidism is NOT something

that will be cured with weight loss. It does make maintenance a little

tougher, the loss a little slower but all in all not enough to be a

hindrance.

I just went to see my PCP to discuss possible causes and he said my last blood work 6 weeks ago showed that they were fine. I didnt even know he had requested a thyroid check. LOL I really think its all the protein shakes and grazing I was doing. After talking to Dr Fisher yesterday, I am not doing them at all now, unless its a long time between meals and I did not prepare a low cal protein snack like a yogurt.TIM..Where do you find the Hood yogurt again? I cant seem to find it!!Huggles> > > Does anyone have a hypothyroid and know if it gets better after > > > surgery?
