I eat healthy and exercise, my thyroid is fine why can't i lose weight i'm 5'4" and weight 246?

A common question: This is a question i get almost daily in my practice. The solution is simple to articulate, but extremely difficult to do - you have to eat less. If you are overweight and cutting calories, your body is both hanging on to fat and making you feel hungry - this is hard to fight, but possible. Pick one dietary goal at a time that you are 80% sure you can do; not too hard, not too easy. You can do it!

Weight loss: You advised us that you eat healthfully, however, you haven't shared what your caloric intake is or what percentage of that is simple carbohydrates. Also don't know what type or amount of exercise you engage in .To lose weight insure that calories burned > calories consumed. Drink at least 8 - 8 oz glasses of water /day. Try for 8 hrs of sleep/night. Aim for at least 5 servings of vegetables &
