    Many of us have hypothyroidism so we know it is difficult but it should not necessarily cause gain if medication is being taken and labs and hormones are acceptable levels.

    I have hypothyroidism also. My surgery is scheduled for April 25... my paperwork gets submitted to insurance next week. My surgeon didn't say I had to lose a certain amount of weight, but I've lost a few working with my nutritionist. I start the two week liquid diet next Wednesday.
