I also have Hashimoto’s with Hypothyroidism. Has your doctor asked you to stop eating certain foods like gluten, dairy, soy and seed oils? I would venture to say, no. Those foods are inflammatory and will cause your body to bloat and become inflamed. Try eliminating them for a good while and see if you don’t actually drop a few lbs. I have been eating this way for about 3 years and have lost weight. I also work out 3 times per week and walk 3 miles 3 x’s per week and do light weight training. You should also stop eating anything that’s been pre packaged like frozen meals or snacks in a package or box. They contain sulfites and nitrates and those are awful for us. Choose all fresh fruits and vegetables and try to eat as clean as possible, meaning nothing in a box or bag. Also stay as far away from sugar as you can. Very inflammatory to our bodies. You mentioned you were at the highest number on the scare in your TPO Antibodies. There is no highest number, it goes as high as it can go, so something tells me you’re not too well informed on Hashimoto’s. Do some research and there’s also a great book written by Isabella Wentz, Pharmacist that tells you how to get to the Root Cause of Hashimoto’s and how to treat it simply. Wishing you all the best.

@lkirnbauer well you think my endocrinologist would’ve told me more about Hashimotos. Is your information from AI or from Google or just plain research? Well, I eat cereal that’s in a box. Sorry I like cereal. I don’t need it often. I do have a problem with sugar because I went to that when I quit smoking so I thought that was a good evening when I quit smoking I can only handle one thing at a time. I can’t do all of it at one time so I just go day by day. I don’t eat a lot of bread or pasta. I’m not worried about the gluten, but thank you for the advice. Yes, I will work on stuff. I have insomnia so I have a hard time sleeping so I’m really tired during the day not real motivated so I’m dealing with that also thanks for the
