I was trying to lose weight but because of moving schools and what have you, I put on like a stone. However, my doctor believes I have an underactive thyroid so I am waiting for test results for that. Unfortunatly a side effect of an underactive thyroid is weight gain which is why i might be gaining when i eat right and stuff. I try to eat healthy but after a week i crash and eat chocolate and biscuits and loads of junk. Does anyone have any tips. Thanks xxx (Note: 11 st 0 is 154 lb.)

Reply from Ana, Age 16 - 10/31/11 - IP#: 71.224.74.xxx Are you kidding me? Having an under active thyroid does NOT make losing weight easier! I have hypothyroidism and my metabolism is so slow! Before I was diagnosed, losing weight was a lot easier but afterwards it's been mostly hovering around the same number. Although the pills do fix the problem to some extent, nothing beats a healthy metabolism!
