Are you exercising at least 30 mins a day? Do you have access to a pool or a gym? Walking certainly is a great start but you need to push yourself. Having gone from Hyper to Hyper I know all about the weight stuggles and even with my current exercise routine I feel like it takes me a heck fo a lot longer to lose weight but I keep pushing myself.

Your calorie intake is very low - you are only hurting yourself in the long run. Your body is going to go in this "starvation" mode and will start storing calories into fat.. The more you move the more you burn....even after working out your body is still burning more calories.

You don’t necessarily need a gym there are tons of youtube/fitness websites that you can check out online for at-home type exercises. Your local library also will have fitness DVDs you can rent for free.

Eating right is equally important. You are not doomed with this dreaded plague. Its a hindrance for sure but you still have control.

Too low-calorie intake will wreak havoc to your metabolism and have a negative effect on your thyroid. Cutting too many calories out of your diet also inhibits the conversion of T4 to T3 and causes your body to start storing fat instead of burning it. If your TSH level's are correct, it may be that the conversion from T4 to T3 is not be working properly.

Too little calories will also cause water retention which will appear to increase your weight (even though it just you body storing water).

I realise it's very difficult getting the right balance between calorie intake and excercise with a thyroid problem and hope you manage to get it all sorted.

Get to the doctor ASAP!

My Doctor took me off of a beta-blocker last week. (I still take an ARB and ACE) and since then, have dropped a pound. He says that I should not have to eat less than 1500 calories a day considering I am careful to get at least 10k steps in a day. My HR was at 60, but now it is at a more normal 80. I have more energy (could also be the synthroid) as well. OP- keep up the Dr.s visits! It really helps if you can print out your food journal from here to show the Dr. when you go in.

I hope you are still giving it your best shot!

I know as well as many how lowering it is to try to loose weight and not get anywhere, even going in reverse for no seemingly particular reason. I think the best thing I did while I was waiting for various appointments was to invest in some good, not the first you find, vitamins and minerals achieving a very broad spectrum, its hard enough eating at a deficit to achieve the right nutrition but when you are plagued by a recalcitrant thyroid its nigh on impossible.

Just a thought. All the best everyone. The younger you are when you get taken seriously the better, believe me.

I struggled for 6 months with exercising 4-5 days a week, regulating my diet through weight watchers, getting enough rest, and managing my stress levels. I kept playing with the same 5 lbs over and over for those months. I have a primary care doctor and an endocrinologist. My endo thought I was doing fine, but my PCD didn't agree. I got the two of them together and they agreed to do blood tests (even though my tests 3 months ago showed my TSH, T4, & T3 moving towards the normal range). Blood tests showed that I had slipped into the more hypo range and my endo upped my Tirosint. In the last 2 months, I've lost 14 pounds with very little change other than leaving WW for the 5:2 eating method. I know it is frustrating, but until your thyroid levels are regulated you can do everything "right" and not see a success. In the hardest times, I have to remind myself that thyroid is an illness and I can't be mad at myself for something so outside of my control. All I can do is advocate for my own wellness with my doctors and keep trying to be the best me that I can. Good luck and I wish you patience and success.
