Anyone from Roseville California???

Hi, my name is Linda and I live in sunny California. I was diagnosed with Hashimoto Hypothyroidism over one year ago and still cannot find the right solution to loosing weight. Never overweight growing up, pounds started creeping up before menopause (around 40) I am now almost 60 (this mo.) I am desperate. I have 50 pounds to loose, and it feels overwhelming. About 6 years ago I lost (it took me 18 months) 25 pounds. Don't even know how. This was way before the doctors even agreed to test my for thryoid problems. I hate the way I look. The doctors don't seem to care. All they do is monitor your thyroid levels and prescribe medicine. I am on Armour 30 mg once a day. I have started taking vitamins and supplements that I have read are important for your thyroid function. The doctors (both my endo and primary) tell me they are not important. What are they talking about???? I take D3, Zinc, Selenium, Magnesium, B-12, Biotin, Super B-complex (contains C, Folic Acid, and B-6), Vit A and E. My primary told me expressely NOT TO TAKE A and E, because they are "dangerous"!!!???!!! Today I am going for another check up with the endo. My levels seems to be doing ok on meds, but I still can't loose the weight. All he is probably going to say is: your levels are fine, keep taking the medicine, go on and have a good life. See you in six months. Does anyone care that I am obese and unhappy??? I am not one to excercise a lot, especially when it's hot (I usually will just walk, but it's been too hot). HELP!!! Is there any hope for me?? Any suggestions from people with hypothyroids??
