Just curious how many of you suffering hypothyroidism eat your MFP goal calories? I mean after exercise as NET calories consumed?
Do you eat less? If so did you calculate how many calories you should net?

    It's best to have your hypothyroid properly managed, so you don't have to even factor that in. Make sure your doctor is testing your free T3 and free T4, and not just your TSH.

    I use the Scooby calculator (http://scoobysworkshop.com/calorie-calculator/) to determine my TDEE, then use the custom goal settings here. As long as I don't eat over that amount (currently 2013) I can lose weight. But anything over and I will stall and/or gain rapidly! Having to worry abt exercise calories and net is too much math for me :)
