Hi,
I'm going slightly mad here. I've been low-carbing for well over a year now, but after reaching a plateau at 82 kilo's, (was 102+) I started gaining weight. So about a month ago I cut the amount of carbs in half. I'm averaging 30 to 40 grams a day, tops. And I'm getting bigger! 85.7 on the scales just now. My thyroid doesn't work, and I read somewhere keto doesn't work for some thyroidpatients, because it goes into "storage mode", holding on to anything and everything, because it probably thinks the subject is starving. My bs is prettier than ever before... But I joyously threw out all the big summerclothes last year, and now I won't fit into anything again. Any ideas on how to lose weight when your thyroid's not co-operating? (I have Hashimoto's).
Any helpful hints are appreciated, from carb-targets to calories to supplements. I'm willing to do anything at this point! I can't get bigger...! My fatty liver won't appreciate it, and neither will my pancreas, as it is all belly fat... Thanks for any nuggets of advice!
