Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Depending upon the levels of TSH, your physician will prescribe the dose of thyroid tablet that has to be used daily at least half an hour before breakfast.

Apart from thyroid medicine, you should start exercise to lose weight. There are no such shakes to lose excess weight. Only option is to do regular exercises. You have to reduce taking calorie rich food.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Siddartha
