Default Yes, you can!

Can you be hypothyroid and lose weight? YES, you can if you do it properly. Please check out this link:
http://thyroid.about.com/library/weightloss/blmain.htm
I have lost 35 pounds over the last 5 months. In Feb, I switched to checking the percentage of body fat instead of pounds and I have lost .7% body fat in less than a month. You have to eat! And eat lots of protein. You should be eatting about 10x your current weight in calories and 40% - 50% of your ihntake should be protein. You also need to do some weight training. Circuit training is great as is weight lifting. the link I listed has tons of info. I strongly suggest you read up and educate yourself. I learn somehting new every time I go back to it.
