My weight gain was one of the things that let me know something was going on. I was constantly hungry and nothing I ate made me feel satisfied. When I talked to my doctor about not losing when I was hyper he said that is what we all believe, but typically in this country we don’t lose weight and sometimes even gain. I started Weight Watchers and so far have lost 14 pounds. Last week on a low-iodine diet I lost 6 pounds! Not the way I wanted to lose it, but hopefully it won’t be back

The low iodine diet is for hyperthyroidism?

that is horrible. i can’t imagine how you can get through the day on so little sleep and food. but i’m sure that’s what’s in store for me too. i don’t know how people are coping but it’s so depressing to think of suffering for the rest of your life. i’m grateful to everyone for replying, but i don’t understand how everyone carries on. good luck.
