I am finally starting to lose weight. But it wasn't until after my dosage was finally regulated and my TSH was below 1.

I tried the Keto diet a few months ago with no results in 3 weeks and no cheating. This time In 2 1/2 weeks I'm down 6 pounds. I also have energy now to make it to the gym. I hope this helps.
