Can you tell me if you have hyperthyroid why do you stop losing the weight ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Because your body..: is a complex, organic, and living system of checks and balances. Similarly if you ate an extra candy snack daily for 1 year - your weight will not increase with 1:1 with every extra calorie.
