OVERWEIGHT AND NOT EATING ?
This happened to me. Never in my life would I have thought this, except I was having other problems and googled my symptoms, and this kept coming up. Hypothyroid. I have all my life been the chubby kid, exercised just like the other kids . We didn't know what fast food was, so that wasn't the reason.. But over the last few years, the weight just sorta appeared . Sound familiar? And the scales said one thing, and you would look down and it was where is it. Then I had some pictures taken and it was who in the heck is this real fat guy. Of course it hit me.. And couldn't figure out why as I tried to eat sort of properly.
I needed to do some memory work and was having problem with it. Googled memory problem... Had a list of things.. Then hypothyroid kept coming up. Again and again. Went to my regular doctor had a blood test done.. It showed up in the ok level. Then met somebody that also apparently has it. She told me the blood test limits aren't right. Refereed me to a specialist.. Found out that I have it, started taking pills for it, and I was at 307 at the doctors office.. Now after getting my dosage to where I react to it.. I'm down to 275 after about 3 months.
Why am I writing this? With all of this BMI, your over weight may not be from stuffing your mouth with food as every skinny person tells you.. May not be that at all. Some of the symptoms are depression, have problems remembering, weight problems.. This problem could have been diagnosed all of your life and you never knew it.. So if you have some of the same things that I had.. And just gain weight for no reason at all .. Think about getting it checked... It sure is changing my life..
So just something to think about.. And I hope for the best .
