Hi, sure, you can loose weight. I have lots of patients with hypothyroidism who get excellent results after treatments and diets. Once the weight is reduced their thyroid reports have gone back to normal and their medications are stopped.
Next Steps
Get a diet plan and treatment for permanent fat loss.
Health Tips
Exercise regularly, have thyroid friendly food in diet.

If you are on thyroxine, your levels are normalised . I dr yet around to eat right , exercise and sleep on time . Weight loss strategies is the same like others . Take up yoga also , it helps a lot . Focus on micronutrients in title diet . Wish you good health .
