HELP!!!!! I have found great success with MFP! I have lost 42 pounds and gone down several sizes. However, I have hit my first plateau and it is so frustrating! I got through the holidays wonderfully. I have been on this plateau since around Christmas time. I did do a bad thing. I am on medication for hypothyroidism and, for whatever reason, I missed my med for 2 weeks! I have been back on it for about a week. I am walking every day, staying within my calories and drinking lots of water. Any ideas on what I can do to get off of this plateau?

    Honestly, given that your thyroid medication was hit or miss you probably need to give it some more time. I wouldn't make any knee-jerk reactions. Worst case, if you feel you need to do something, is to go see your doctor and see what they say.

    Thanks for that! I read where it could take weeks before it gets absorbed good in your body. I honestly don't know why I forgot to take it for so long!
