When you talk about losing weight for normal people its about reducing over-eating but when you talk about thyroid sufferers (so called hypos) weight is not gained by over-eating but because of low metabolism. And there are no miracles here, no short-cuts.
The hypos gain weight due to water retention.There is a build up of sticky substances, such as mucin, under the skin that retains water.So people should correct there TSH(Thyroid stimulating hormone) first which should be between 0.5 to 5.0.Once your TSH is fine then you are like normal person who can lose weight with proper diet and exercise.
