Hello thanx for using Hcm,
Weight gain is common problem in hypothyroids , as due to decrease in thyroid hormone production metabolism slows down and You need to take low calorie diet with regular physical activity or exercise.
consume small meals wih less carbohydrates .
Include plenty of vegetables and 2 serving of fruits in a day to avoid constipation.
Avoid animal fat sources cut down on fried foods, bakery products.Add less oil in cooking.
