Accepted Answer

Check Thyroid: It does seem bizarre that on that kind of diet you cannot lose weight.  Therefore, i suggest you get your thyroid gland checked out. Suggested lab tests would include T4 free, T3 (liothyronine) free, reverse t3, (liothyronine) anti-thyroglobulin antibodies and anti-thryroid peroxidase antibodies. The T4  and T3 (liothyronine) free should be within the upper 1/3 of the reference range (optimal) and reverse T3 (liothyronine) and antibodies should be normal.

Question 2

how to lose wight!?

Accepted Answer

Eat fewer calories: Our bodies are in a simple state of balance. If we eat more calories than we use, we gain weight. If we eat fewer calories than we use, we lose weight. So, people who want to lose weight must eat less than they use on most days, but occasionally may eat more than they use on other days... but it averages out over time, so that they are eating fewer calories overall, than they use each day.
