These blogs and the NHS live well lose weight pages are full of ideas, tips and really good advice about losing weight, diet, exercise, nutrition, etc, etc and it's all free and it even includes a 12 week plan (again it's a freebie).

As with any prevailing medical issue, you are strongly advised to discuss how your condition might impinge upon your weight loss regime, and vice versa, with your doctor or practice nurse. There may be extra considerations, or risks, that you need to take into account due to your condition, e.g. foods to avoid, or foods to ensure you include.

If you look back on these blogs (in the Questions one, I think) the subject of thyroid has come up before.

Really, I guess it's probably about adapting the general advice to meet your specific medical needs, but you may need input from a dietician or other medical professional in terms of the detail of that for your condition.

You also may find discussing the subject within a thyroid blog / community more specifically helpful than in this more general weight loss one.

Good luck.
