Common treatment includes surgery or medicine, however, one - third of people eventually become resistant to these medications (and they
cause massive weight gain among other metabolic problems).
Let's be clear: eating moderate amounts of carbs will not lead to
massive weight gain, unless you are doing nothing but watching television all day long.
Massive weight gain is not usually associated with hypothyroidism itself and only 5 - 10 pounds of body weight can be attributed to effects of the thyroid gland.
For 20 years I have fought obesity and countless other ailments due to the complications caused by first the loss of my thyroid and than
the massive weight gain.
