Weight gain/loss question
| Wed, 01-24-2007 - 7:59pm |
Hello! I'm new here....was just diagnosed with hypo, and am on 125mcg synthroid. Among other symptoms, I gained a good 30Lbs. at a quick steady rate (Ugh!!!) before going to doctors to figure out what was going on.
Can anyone PLEASE tell me their experience with weight loss once their medicine was properly dosed. Did it come off by itself or did you actually have to diet and exercise to lose it? I'm sort of hoping I can wake up some morning real soon and it will be *poof* gone!
Thank you!!

I can say honestly that after being on the correct meds, my weight came right off. But the key word is correct....Once the dr thinks your meds are at the right dose, then it usually takes about 3 months from that. Good luck!! Alittle working out cant hurt..
Dyan :)
Thanks for the response, and I will start to work out.
