slimming world and under active thyroid

[batmansmum]

I know this is an old post but its nice to keep upto date with others in the same boat, I've been on sw for 8wks & i've lost 13lbs so far, out of those i gained 1 wk & sts 1 wk . I also have congenital hypothyroidism, So i was born with it just shy of 30 yrs ago & was also worried about losing weight. Its defo coming off, admittedly i'd like to lose more a week but its working & i'm pleased. I don't really eat potatoes now, & the only pasta i have is in a mugshot, I rarely eat bread now too. So the carbs defo cut down. I take 200mcg of thyroxine a day & have also just found out i'll be taking beta blockers soon x

I have an underactive thyroid and on 200mg a day of levo, I joined SW back in July 2011 and lost 2st but sadly i then got depression and started comfort eating and put some back on, but on meds for that now and have lost altogether 1st 5lbs so far. So it can be done but will take a little longer
