  • I was diagnosed with hypothyroid. It’s tough but I found my body reacted well to minor reductions in calories better than larger reductions. If I reduced cals by 500 less per day I wouldn’t lose weight but if I reduced by about 250-300 I’d suddenly start losing... super weird but maybe give it a try?
