Hi! I was diagnosed this past spring with hypothyroidism, I had had this condition for 11 years before being properly tested and diagnosed.
I’m looking for other hypothyroid/Hashi’s warriors who are active, add me if you wish!

    I just found out I have Hashimoto. They are still trying to regulate my levithyroxine dosage. Gained 50 lbs in 3 months. I went from size 4 to 10 and feel defeated.

    Hi I have Hashis and have only joined back on mfp so could do with a few friends and moral support. I've gained 4 stones and can't seem to do it alone so back to mfp. I'm currently taking natures thyroid so watching what I'm eating should work this time.. feel free to add me.

    I also have Hashimoto's Thyroiditis, I have been on Levothyroxine and Armour Thyroid to keep it under control. I am prediabetic so my doctor gave me 3 months to get my weight down and hopefully blood sugar improves.

    Hello I have hypothyroidism and take levothyroxine. The weight goes on easily and I need to be rigid with calorie control to lose!

    Hello Kimberly, I am also hypothroid. I have been on MFP for 2 years and have lost 100 pounds from my all time high (pre MFP). Just wanted to encourage you that it can be done.

    Hypo here! Medicated for a little over a year! Probably should have been diagnosed long ago. I lost 30 lbs before I found out but it took me nearly a year. Anyone take thyroid support along with Levo? Looking for anything to help.
