Dear madam,
Thank you for posting your query on HCM.
Best thing for you will be dietary modifications and regular exercise . Incorporate salad in you diet that is going to help you in your IBS also and reduce bloating . Avoid dairy products which lead to lot of bloating . Keep you hypothyroidism under control that will lead to weight loss .
Take care .
