thyroid/bloodwork/can't lose weight

From Dr Oz (for what it is worth)

Here are three things you can do to boost your thyroid function:

1. Eat more of these great sources of iodine to enhance thyroid function: 
Low fat cheese  
Cow’s milk
Eggs   
Low fat ice cream    
Low fat yogurt                                  
Saltwater fish
Seaweed (including kelp, dulce, nori)
Shellfish
Soy sauce
2. Eat less of these foods; they slow your thyroid because they block your thyroid and your medication from producing thyroid hormone properly, especially when eaten raw. Cooking these foods inactivates their anti-thyroid properties. These foods are called goitrogens, which are chemicals that lower thyroid function. Eat these foods sparingly or only once every four days:
Almonds                      
Cauliflower (Any vegetable that falls into the broccoli family is a goitrogen and shouldn’t be eaten more than twice a week if you have hypothyroidism.)
Millet             
Pears               
Turnips
Brussels sprouts          
Corn                      
Mustard       
Pine nuts           
Cabbage                         
Kale                        
Peaches         
Soy (Isoflavones block iodine)
Canola oil                                                       
Peanuts         
Spinach     
3. Workout every day. All you need is a pair of sneakers and a watch, and you’re ready to go. For optimal thyroid function, you must exercise at least three days a week for 40 minutes per workout. I strongly suggest working out/walking every day so your thyroid gets a boost daily to correct the condition until your thyroid is running at an optimal rate. Circuit training is also great way to lower insulin levels and increase thyroid function. This is easy to do in the comfort of your own home by doing pushups, lunges and sit-ups back to back without rest, pushing yourself a bit to get out of breath.
 
Bonus: Enhance your thyroid with supplements. Take thyroid-enhancing supplements daily to gently and safely keep your thyroid working optimally for life. The best way to treat anything is to prevent it!  Supplementing is the best way to keep your thyroid running at an optimal rate and to keep your weight under control. Start your supplement regime first by using a very strong, high quality multivitamin.  Most store-bought vitamins are not suitable or strong enough to help hypothyroidism, so look for a very potent high quality multi with high levels of iodine, selenium, zinc, vitamin B, D, E and at least 2 grams of vitamin C. Other nutrients such as omega-3 as well as amino acids also help regulate the thyroid and need to also be considered. One of my favorites that I put all of my hypothyroid clients on is gugglesterones. Guggulsterone or guggulipid’s have been used for centuries in ayurvedic medicine to naturally regulate the thyroid and keep it running at an optimal rate without the side effects of medications. Look for supplement multitaskers from a very reputable source so you don’t have to take 29 different pills every day.

i'm writing all of this down....that way i can take it to my dr. when i go.
I'm on a few meds ....the dr said those couldn't be the reason. Lisinopril (blood pressure) , trivora (birth control) , linzess (ibs) , and i take a probiotic. Also the dr has taken me off the last week of my BC pills...therefore i have no period. It's called menstrual suppression. I've always wondered if that could be the cause. Of course my gyno says no,

Supposedly birth control can affect weight gain and loss (not at all for me, but I've seen some threads on here about it and how much weight people gain on bc). I also have IBS but i'm losing at a good rate (1.5 pound average, and i'm down to my last 7 pounds). I've never heard of being taken off the pill and having no cycle, so that's odd, unless it's menopause (which is possible at your age, my mom was in full menopause at 40).

Also note if you eat too little you will not lose. use TDEE to find out how much to eat.

Try upping your calories to 1500 per day and just doing some moderate exercising every other day... I was losing steadily from just walking 3 days a week, then I started this darn gym kick working out 5 days a week and didn't lose a damn pound for a month! I'm going back to my old routine.

You've only been logging on here for three weeks, and in that time you've gone out (sometimes more than once) to Macaroni Grill, TGI Friday's, Ruby Tuesday, Ryan's Steakhouse, Freddy's Burgers, Wendy's and Subway. You've listed potato chips, pizza, pasta, burgers, fries, ice cream, gravy, lasagna, mac 'n' cheese, ribs, bread and potatoes. I would have gained 10 lbs in the three weeks if I ate that stuff. Good for you for logging, but those are very high calorie items that are very easy to underestimate the portion size, and the calories published by restaurants can be 30% to 50% low. Then on some days there are mystery items like spaghetti sauce with nothing else, or one night where your dinner consisted of 10 tablespoons of sour cream. Did you really sit there with a spoon and eat spaghetti sauce and sour cream, or did they go on top of things that weren't logged? And why aren't you keeping track of carbs?

Anyway, I'm sure you feel attacked but I'm just trying to point out that you're probably averaging a lot more than 1300 calories a day.
