I don't have a thyroid disorder/disease that I know of as of yet (will eventually be finding that out) but from others that I have talked to that have had hypothyroidism that when they went on the medication to help regulate the thyroid the weight that they gained started coming off. I will be in the process of trying to find out if I have something going on with my thyroid besides the other health issues I have because I'm having a struggle to lose weight too.

If your blood work came back okay, I wouldn't begin to stress so much. Don't diagnose yourself - that's not the right thing to do. Do you suffer from Raynaud's Disease? This is a circulatory problem. Pls. see attached link for more info regarding this.
Are you on the thinner side? IF so, that's a big part of it! No body fat means you will get cold faster than others and it's harder to get warm. Try eating more protein and carbs. The protein your body needs to burn for exercise and will store it in your sytem. The carbs will help to put on some weight so that you will hopefully stay a bit warmer.
Have you recently moved to an area that is colder than you were accustomed to before? If so, your body will take about 2 - 3 yrs. to adapt to the new climate.
Remember to eat right, that's going to be your number one defense when fighting the cold temps.
If you are suffering from Raynaud's, try the following!
Niacin helps combat Raynaud's disease and some other circulatory problems. Niacin releases the arteries and the veins and as a result improves your circulation. For some people that are suffering from Raynauld's disease, the ability of vitamin B3 to improve your blood pressure may counter the main numbness in your hands and your feet.
Good luck!

Do you happen to know what your test results were? TSH is supposed to be done in the morning only if the doctor suspects hypothyroidism that's because TSH is highest while we sleep. You want to test it first thing in the morning. By 2PM its at its lowest point.
Another thing about TSH. AACE has lowered the range to 0.3 to 3.0, but most labs have it at 0.3 to 5.5. If your lab has it at the higher range your doctor may say you are fine with a 4.5 result, while you are rally hypothyroid.
In testing, along with a morning TSH I suggest a Free t4, Free T3, and an antibody test. The TSH doesn't always catch hypothyroidism until it becomes more severe. I know this because it happened to me.
Below are some links. Please read up. If you need to contact me you are welcome to through yahoo answers.

This is best to discuss with your doctor. If you don't like the opinoin of your docotr get a second opinion. Only a doctor who examines you can determine what is going on in your body.
