Hi,
Your shake seems to be fine , but ideally you shouldn’t be overloading on protein / fats because your cholesterol is high and needs to be controlled.
Weight gain requires a proper balanced diet , as you already have thyroid issues- these kind of shakes may not have any permanent affect on your weight. They may increase your cholesterol parameters.
A detailed assessment is necessary to provide a suitable diet plan that will help you gain weight safely
