I'm 68 years old and can not lose weight. I have a thyroid problem. I'm hypro. I exercise 3 day a week. I use walk away the pounds. Need help.

    Hopefully your doctor will be able to get your thyroid straight with medication. Mine is sluggish as well and makes this whole journey a little harder. I take beta blockers as well for my BP which slow down the heart rate, but it can be done. I have lost 26 lbs since April on WW. I like MFP, it allows me to track calories, not just points. Good luck and keep plugging.

    I think this is really, really hard but doable; never ever give up. Just "lose the weight". Of course talk to your doctor about thyroid meds...
