Losing weight : Losing weight rarely begins with medications. Why did you gain weight? Rarely is it a thyroid problem. Most likely its poor eating habits based on triggers, the most common triggers are emotions. Why do you want to lose weight? What will be your deeper reason? Are you really motivated to lose weight or do you want a quick fix to with the poor long term outcomes? Start by examining yourself.
