Hi guys, I posted a few weeks ago about joining slimming world.
The first week I lost 1.5lb. The second week put on 1.5lb and put on another 1lb this week.
Despite the only detour I've taken is 1 bottle of wine and lucozade to treat hypo's my husband has lost just over 1/2 stone with same meals and my daughter 6lb in the same time. my activity has increased from nothing to 2 gym sessions a week and 2 swim sessions a week in the past fortnight. I now believe it could be something else. Thyroid problems as this extra weight, over a stone has crept on since December, slow and steady.
Anyone else experience this kind of weight gain and been told they have under active thyroid. Am i just looking for an answer that's not there?

What meds are you on (if any)?

Sometimes meds have an odd effect on weight - I would ask your GP for a Thyroid test and cite your hubby's weight loss as a reason for your concern about the lack of yours.
