Thyroid Question
I had my thyroid removed in 2005. I had GB on 11/14/16. I've lost 60 pounds with no problems. I have to keep an eye on my thyroid level as the weight loss will definitely require changes in the medicine you take. Everyone is different but I think you will do just fine. Keep up the great work!!!
