If your thyroid: Blood tests are normal then your thyroid is functioning normally, you should not take thyroid medication to loose weight if you thyroid is normal. Too high thyroid is dangerous. I suggest balanced diet, moderate portions and 1/2-1 hour of exercise a day. Water exercise or swimming can be gentle on your joints.

PsychologicalSupport: Lab values w/in normal limits won't reflect psychological issues. A health or behavioral medicine psychologist can address this utilizing cognitive therapy, pain management, etc. Peace and good health.
