Answer 2

Well, one thing, I wouldn't do the herbalife thing...that IS scary doing diet drugs when you're on thyroid meds. DON'T DO IT!! Not tryin to put any other answerer down, it's just that someone with low thyroid is different from someone who has a normal thyroid. We tend to get heart palpatations, panic attacks, hard to breathe...this can all happen if we have to high of a dosage, or even if we take a diet pill!
It's not good to suggest diet pills to those who shouldn't take them!
I also want to mention~ If your doctor won't listen to YOU-and most don't, get a new one! YOU KNOW when your body is good & when it's not! I refuse to listen to someone who won't listen to me...because they think they know it all since they "went to school for the degree". Well, they didn't go to school & study MY BODY! So, get a new doc, and don't feel bad about it. What if something bad happened to you? Would you hesitate to let that doc know at that point? DON"T LET IT GET THERE!

Anyway, as far as diet, I don't really have a diet for my thyroid problem. I have lazy thyroid, as you call it, also. I think moderate excersice would be helpful. I take 300 MCG per day!!! So mine is REALLY lazy! It takes a lot for me to get going, and if i miss a day or 2, i really pay for it!! I really do try to follow a healthy eating habit anyway, but not because of the thyroid....only because I feel better when I eat better.

I have given several links below to read & perhaps you can read through & understand the different thyroid symptoms & problems.

Here is some information about myself, plus some symptoms since you seemed to be interested:
I have low thyroid. I've had it for 10 years. I got it after I had my second child at about the age of 25. If you have low thyroid...here's a great question to answer: Can you see the floor of your house? That was what was asked of me at one point, and to my amazement, the answer was no!
My signs are: messy house, no desire to do anything...go anywhere, spend time with my kids or my guy, sleep a lot, hard to keep my eyes open at times, HUGE weight gain that over the past years have not found an easy way to take off...so I give up a lot, I have terribly dry hair & don't wash it a lot so it stays strong, I have bumps on my face...not like pimples, but I think it's from dry skin, and perhaps some others that I can't remember at this time...that's another symptom--forgetfullness.

Here are the "GENERAL" signs for most people: fatigue and lack of energy. Women suffering from underactive thyroid experience heavier menstrual periods. Sluggishness and forgetfulness are symptoms of underactive thyroid problem. Other symptoms of this thyroid disorder are dry skin and hair and constipation.

If you have high thyroid, or an overactive one, the signs are: increased body metabolism. This is followed by weight loss and excessive warmth and sweating. Persons suffering from overactive thyroid experience trembling hands, irritability and rapid heartbeat or palpitations. Women with overactive thyroid or hyperthyroidism may experience shorter or lighter menstrual periods.

I sadly will have to take 1 pill everyday for the rest of my life.
I hope i've helped you!!

Thyroid disease is one of the most common health problems we face today. From a practical standpoint, there are many ways to approach this issue. Learn here https://tr.im/Qewb5

Hypothyroidism, or underactive thyroid, is a very common problem, and there are many reasons for this, including drinking chlorinated and fluoridated water, and eating brominated flour.

Chlorine, fluoride, and bromine are all in the same family as iodine, and can displace iodine in your thyroid gland.

Secondly, many people simply aren't getting enough iodine in their diet to begin with. The amount you get from iodized salt is just barely enough to prevent you from getting a goiter.

Mustard is a secret bulge-buster. It boosts your metabolism and improves natural ephadrine, the hormone that will burns fat. According to Jeya Henry, professor of human nutrition in Oxford Brookes University, just a tablespoon as part of your food can reduce a flabby waist by 20 per cent!

Answer 5

People who plan their weekly meals will be more successful at losing weight than those that don’t. Plan your dishes to add healthy carbs such as sweet potato and wholegrain pasta, vegetables and lean proteins, buy each of the ingredients in advance and don’t be tempted to nibble on out or order in.
