Has anyone else had a blood test done for leptin resistance? My blood sugar hasn't been tested for ages but has always been good, however in last year I've gone from a stubborn 180lb out to 205 with no sign of reduction unless I'm starving myself.

Now being treated with NDT, very very slowly 🙄, but still unable to lose weight and found the Westin a child's info on leptin & thyroid restartmed.com/leptin-resis...

Hi kitty, here is something about leptin. Someone posted yesterday asking the same question so you may find that thread as well. I gave her this from the National Academy of Hypothyroidism which gives a lot of information of all thyroid situations.
