If not please see your physician, he/she can prescribe medication for it.. under-active thyroid can make you gain excessive weight, and dieting will not correct the problem. I had just the opposite problem and could not gain weight, until I got the problem corrected. It didn't matter how many calories I consumed, I could not put on a pound, I continued to lose weight. But my doctor put me on medication that corrected the problem.. It could also damage your heart and it controls other organs too.. It can make you very nervous and tired, there are lots of symptoms that you may be over looking so please see your doctor for the sake of your health. Hope I have helped in some small way. Good Luck. p.s. I just saw your last post, sometimes it takes a while to get the level of medication your body needs... but keep seeing the doctor until the level is corrected and talk with him/her and tell them everything even if you have to make a list to take with you to your physician.

It might be that your dose needs adjusting. I've had an underactive thyroid since my early twenties ( now 40 - sob!). i did go up to 13 stone (I'm 5ft 7in) and a couple of years ago did manage to lose 2 and a 1/2 stone for a holiday which i didn't find too difficult because i didn't want to look like a beached whale so had a goal in sight. unfortunatly though I've managed to put back on 1 and 1/2 stone so would say determination should do it and promise yourself a reward at the end. Good luck with it. Are you on thyroxine? It might be that your dose needs adjusting.
