Hi everyone
Posted this on another thread but I think it got lost, so hope nobody minds that I'm starting a new thread on a subject that has already been raised.
Like a lot of others, I too have an underactive thyroid and have struggled to lose weight. Each time before, on WW, Atkins or whatever, I lose about a stone and then weight loss stops.
I've now lost 10kgs on Exante in a month and am now 2 weeks into my 2nd month, but my weight hasn't budged for the last 2 weeks and I'm beginning to despair and eye up whats in the kitchen!!
It's not that I haven't still got a lot to lose either. Just can't understand this plateau and it's driving me crazy.
I'm on 175 to 200mcg of Levothyroxine - I don't think that's a particularly high dose because I know someone who is on 400mcg and she's tiny and always has been.
I've tried adding an evening meal and that hasn't worked, so I think my body needs another sharp shock to drop some more kg's - anyone got any ideas before I reach for the.........?
Thanks
