Hi! I'm Balaji from India, and I just joined MFP last night, after hearing about the app/website from a friend. Being a 20-something and obese is not great, and I've been struggling with weight-loss and thyroid issues. Currently, I'm on 100mcg of Eltroxin. I've been on this for about two years now. I feel like I've tried everything for weight-loss, but I don't feel motivated enough to keep going, 'cause nothing seems to happen, no matter what I do!

    I'm not familiar with Eltroxin...is this another name for Synthroid? Anyway, two years is a long time to go without seeing any improvements. You should be getting bloodwork done regularly to see if you've improved, or if you need a dose adjustment. Have you been seeing your doctor to get these tests done? Use MFP to log all, and I mean all of your food. Hopefully you'll see some results in a few weeks. Good luck
