    Levothyroxine is the name of the medication, Synthroid is the brand name. Levoxyl is also a brand name but it also contains Levothyroxine. It's like generic cola vs. Coca Cola

    I have been hypo for the past 11 years. 4 years ago I was able to loose 40lbs, by counting calories and exercising and get back into a size that I had not been able to get into since high school. I kept it off for about a year and then my levels went all crazy and the last 3 years I have been trying to get my meds back to the right dose to get my levels in check. Levels have been the same for the last 6 months and 3 weeks ago I decided that all those "skinny" cloths were going to waste in my closet so it was time again to start counting calories and making sure I exercise 5 days a week.

    So it can be done and might have to be done more than once but it is worth it.
