Concerned about becoming slim

Elevated triglycerides and uric acid

Male , 38 years, 186 cms , 91 kgs. Total cholestrol is 180 mg/dL. Triglycerides 201 mg/dL. Vldl 40 mg/dL. Uric acid 7.2 mg/dL. Gamma GT 18 U/L. HBAlc 5.7. Sgot 24 U/L . Sgpt 30 U/L. I have fatty liver grade 1. I am not doing any physical exercise nor dieting. My sgpt and sgot were previously 70 and 50. Total cholestrol was earlier 210. Only thing that I did is increased water intake to 2 liters daily from .75 L daily. My belly size also reduced by 40%. I never felt that water suppressed my appetite instead it increases appetite which is why i dont reduce food. I avoid sugar. Does water intake improves metabolism . What is your recommendation?.

Weight Loss Resistance

I am a 28-year-old with Thyroid and a BMI of 32.0. I have been taking 50mcg of Thyroxine for one month, and my TSH is shigh at 10.5 mIU/L, and my HbA1c is 6.0%. Despite being physically active with swimming and recently started gyming, I am experiencing complete weight loss resistance and a high Visceral Fat level of 18. My biggest struggle right now is that I feel I have absolutely no control over my hunger; I experience intense 'food noise' and the urge to binge even immediately after eating full meals. I recently completed my Vitamin D treatment, but my metabolism feels completely stalled. I would like to know if my thyroid dose needs to be increased and if I am a candidate for Mounjaro (Tirzepatide) to help manage this uncontrollable hunger ?? I really want to lose weight as I'm out of energy and all day I feel inactive and sleepy
