Optimise your hormone levels. That's the only way I know. If you haven't got enough thyroid hormone in you, you are going to continue losing it, putting it on again, losing it... Dieting can make the problem worse.

There are a lot of discussions here about this subject, perhaps you could use the search window above to have a read of some of them.

Hope this helps, Grey

Have you tried going wheat free - I have struggled for years to lose weight but was urged to go wheat free by a very knowledgable lady on here (who is taking advise from a professor in London) and after 8 weeks I am now seeing the benefits.

I can now get into clothes that I couldn't and my once very extended stomach is now wobbly for the first time in years (it comes to something doesn't it when you get excited over a wobbly belly).

I would recommend anyone giving it a go as I no longer have that awful heavy, bloated feeling and also seem to have more energy.

Hi Mrs Moon,

I totally agree with Moggie,

Ive put on several stone over the last five years,.

Gone gluten free was also advised by a very knowledgable lady to do this. The weight is now coming off. Ive lost a stone in the last month.

Love Angie xx

Hi. I did leave a reply but it still doesn't seem to work. I did go gluten free a gd few years ago but it has made no difference. Thanks though :-)
