A member asked:
Is it possible to lose 2 stones in a month? because my current graves' disease is making me gain weight, and i want to lose weight desperately.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Graves and weight: Graves disease increases the metabolism, but also increases the appetite. Try to control your food intake, with non-caloric fluids, less dense foods. Treatment of graves will normalize everything, but the weight can be a problem. I would not count on losing 28 lbs in 1 month, that is rather fast. Take a long-term approach to a healthy diet.
