    Lost 63 pounds using MFP in 10-11 months starting in April 2015, at age 59-60, with long-term hypothyroidism that's well controlled with 175mcg daily levothyroxine, which I take religiously according to instructions (first thing in the AM, empty stomach, wait before eating, etc.). I'm now in the 120s at 5'5".

    As far as I could tell, it wasn't any more difficult for me to lose weight than it is for someone without a thyroid condition.

    Yep, I have hypothroidism. I take Levothroxine since the mid 90's. I've lost 110 pounds, working at my last 20. I can't say it was much of an issue for me as my .175mcg dose has been the same for many years.

    Good Luck!
