What kind of "Fat Burners" are you taking? These could be loaded with caffeine or worse ephedra, and that will make your heart race.
Here is a website to figure out how many calories you should be eating in order to loose weight. This is specifically for thyroid problems.

If you weigh 240, from my calculations you should be eating at least 2500 calories/day.

Lorena, how many times are you going to come here yelling "help" and then not listen to any of the advice you've been given? You don't need any more weight loss advice.
What you are doing right now is slowly killing yourself. You cannot sustain that level of excercise and calories without causing serious metabolic damage. If you want to have a look at everything that has been posted to you since you've been here, click the search button at the bottom of your post and you'll see the same things over and over again.
Why you seem to have a death-wish, I don't know. It could be one of many things: depression, anorexia, OCD...
I think what you really need right now is a therapist or a 12-Step group like Overeaters Anonymous.
I can't stop you from damaging yourself. Only you can do that.

Lorena, pretend for a moment that you're somebody else - someone you respect and admire.
Now read what is written above with their eyes and mind. Does it seem that the person writing it is OK or that there is something terribly wrong? Food is not your enemy, it's your source of life!
Do you have an older person in your life, someone at school, a doctor, anyone you can talk to? You need some real life people to give you a hand with this.

I would say that everyone here is probably sick of being fat. But there are saner ways to lose fat.
What you're doing now is making you really sick, both mentally and physically. Ask your doctor for a referral to someone who can help you and for advice on the Armour. We can't give you advice on medications and how much to take.
Losing weight will not make you any more or any less desireable by somebody else. You have to work on your internal stuff - the stuff that makes you think behave the way you do now. Then you can be free to make rational decisions about how to work on the outside stuff.

HEADS UP---LISTEN! You are starving yourself and making your metabolism slower by not eating enough for all the exercise you are doing. You will not lose weight until you eat more. GET HELP FROM A PROFESSIONAL AT ONCE!

I have to agree with quilter and Karen here!
You have sent me PM's and I have given you the same advice, you need to listen AND talk to a professional. We aren't qualified to give you advice on medications.
Yes, there are those of us that are on thyroid meds, but we dont' seek advice about the meds, only on help with the WOE
You already have lost weight according to your stats... it takes time.
You can't keep crying for help, and then when you get it ignore it.
Talk to your Dr. about the meds. READ the book for your eating plan...
