I need some advice about weight loss and possible thyroid issues. Just some quick background to help you understand my situation. Seven years ago my husband passed away very suddenly. Over the next two years or so I lost 90 pounds. I was walking about 2 or 3 miles a day and not eating much due to grief.
Over the past two years I have gained about 15 pounds. I am 58 5ft2 inches and weigh about 135. I was not walking as much and started eating more..I feel huge! I am depressed because I gained some of the weight back.
My TSH is on the high end of normal, so my question is is the weight gain enough to consider thyroid medication? I have been trying to exercise and limit carbs, but don't seem to be losing anything.
Any advice would be appreciated.
