If i am now about to get the pills for thyroid, how much weight will i be losing a week?

Can not predict: Weight loss if any can not be predicted, but you will not loose weight if you do not cut down total calorie intake and exercise as well.The weight gain in hypothyroidism is due to slow metabolism and when you correct that problem it will bring your metabolism to normal .But weight loss will happen by proper diet and exercise only.
