WLS & Thyroid Meds & Tea
Hi Everybody !
I had my open RNY on March 10th, 2003. At my 30 day post-op visit; I
had lost 25 pounds ! And with NO hunger; which was the amazing part.
I had thought I would have lost more, but 25 # OFF is a WHOLE lot
better that 25# ON !
However, when my PCP did yet another thyroid check (surgical
removal) …..I was off-target ! You’d have thought (after losing 25
lbs..) I would have needed my Levoxyl dose reduced, BUT because of
the mal-absorbtion of the RNY; I have had to UP it to 250 mcg.
……which means I’m still in for a long fight…..But at least NOW,
I have the “TOOL” to whip this ! I’m just going to be a SLOWWWW
loser. 
(patience…patience….NOW ! )
So if you’re on thyroid meds….and slow losing…have the lab work
done… ! You may need the meds “DOCTOR” adjusted…
I have also found out thru trial & error; that EVERY TIME I drink
tea; my weight loss comes to a dead stop; no matter what I eat…
Any ideas on why ?????
