So I was diagnoised with hyper thyroid last week, along with high blood pressure. The Dr. put me on a blood pressure pill that helps eliminate water on the body, (though keeping the potassium in my body) which has helped and I feel great. My problem is , even though I have been diagnoised with hyper thyroid I have had a weight problem all my life.
Wouldn't you think with the hyper thyroid.. that I could lose the weight instead of gaining it? I have now been watching what I eat and I keep a journal and I am mabey eating about 1200 to 1600 cals a day and drinking about 8 glasses of water.
My question is how do I help take this weight off with hyper thyroid? With out the use of diet pills, or any other unhealthy way. Are there any foods I should avoid? Any foods I should eat?
I am concerned for my health, which I should have been years ago... I just hink about my girls... I want to get healthy!
