Whats a good way to lose weight with a thyroid issue?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Treat it: Treat the thyroid issue properly. Once it's treated, you should be able to lose weight just like everyone else through diet/exercise. As long as the thyroid lab is normal, it should not impede your ability to lose weight.
