Thyroid issues and less than a year to go....HELP!

Hi ?

I have an under active thyroid, managed by medication thankfully...............I lost 4 stone with Weight Watchers almost 5 yrs ago and have kept it all off. If I can do it, so can you ?

Look online & find your nearest meeting!

I too have underactive thyroid. I was originally overactive but had to had radio iodine therapy to shrink my thyroid gland. Thus resulting in me becoming underactive.

I have recently joined Slimming World and I have lost 10lb in 5 weeks.

It's work a try ?

Hey Girls!

Well I am 4 weeks into married life and it is great... I slimmed down using a Juice Plus shake and Capsule plan for my wedding - helped hugely withmy weightloss and also my IBS....

If you are on facebook then please like and follow my link below to keep up to date with my Juice Plus Diet Plan and if it is of interest to you then we can discuss in more detail - I can show yo some research thathas been carried out on Juice Plus users and Under active Thyroid and also show you positive outcomes and feedback from clients who also suffer from this...

I'd rather lose weight in a healthy way ~ 3 proper meals a day combined with healthy snacks and moderate exercise = a healthy weight loss that's sustainable for life ?

I agree with doing it the healthy way, especially if you have health issues anyway. This needs to be a long term plan that you can maintain. I have an underactive thyroid and gave up sugar 5 months ago and have lost nearly 2 stone. I can't sick to diets as I just think about food all the time, and I really like food. But try cutting out sugar and eating more fruit and veg. Portion control helps too. Don't starve yourself, i found that since I was diagnosed with thyroid problems I can't go for more than a couple of hours without eating so have little snacks through the day, like oatcakes or toasted pitta breads with a thin smear of peanut butter. You don't want to be feeling hungry.

Exercise is good as long as you're not feeling too tired but it sounds like you have your medication sorted. I walk lots and try to swim whenever I can.

Good luck
