Hello and welcome, Robobev

My first suggestion is to head over to the Thyroid UK forum and talk through with the very knowledgeable people there how your hypothyroidism is being managed.

Next, don't worry too much about exercise in terms of weight loss. It's what we eat that plays a far bigger part. Keep doing some regular activity - walking is perfect - and increase it gradually.

Then we come to eating. It sounds as though experience has told you that diets don't work. The way to go is eating whole food, home cooked, so you get the nutrients you need and you enjoy your food. Please take time reading this post from a member, one of our Admin team, who, like you, had a lifetime of failed diets, and found a new way forward healthunlocked.com/nhsweigh...

And here's a simple plan to print off and use when planning your shopping and meals phcuk.org/wp-content/upload...

BridgeGirl hi, Thank you for the welcome and the information, some good things for me to be getting on with I do appreciate it.

You're welcome Why not have a try at that real food way of eating and see how you get on? Give it a month, sticking with it properly and see how things are then. No low fat or other processed stuff, just good, natural food

"We know that bariatric surgery is quite effective at reversing T2D and also, over time, reducing weight. We also know that bariatric is simply surgically enforced fasting. So here’s the crucial question. If all the benefits come from fasting, why not do the fasting and skip the surgery entirely?"
