Anybody on here with Thyroid issues?

theibster

Hi all, I've been a member on here a while but haven't really used it that pro-actively.

Anybody on here have thyroid issues or similar metabolic disorders? I used to live in the gym and work hard, but associated weight gain with my diagnosis of underactive thyroid has massively reduced my motivation to workout. It's a little bit shallow, but I feel the need to lose a bit before I go back to the gym. I plan to do exercise outside of the gym as I used to train a lot with free weights and Pilates so can start that back up. I also used to ride Motocross but I feel too old for that now

I"m 32 now and can't blame my thyroid for my weight forever.

From advice of a friend who is hypothyroid, I'm undertaking a VLCD (very low calorie diet) and once established fully in ketosis I will be starting an exercise regimen.

Anyone want to join me on my journey or just generally be a support buddy? Non-thyroid disorder folk also welcome!
