If it isn't broke then I don't see what needs to be fixed or that you would need to change what works for you just because you're hypothryoid. I don't think Leigh is saying that everyone with thyroid problems needs to always exercise or diet down in a certain way. Like everything your mileage may vary.
If you are having problems then I'd suggest you outline what the problem is and what your current exercise and diet are like and then you may get better suggestions on how to approach this.

I guess I'm justlooking for the "right program" if there is such a thing. I have stalled. Have been sticking around 213 for a about a month or so. I dont really have a work out program quuote unquote yet I just look up things to do and just do them. I had been trying the NROL4W but can't always get to the gym everytime I need to do. I want to be able to say yeah on this day I do this, this day is for this.. and make it stick. So like my typical "routine" I try to get to the gym Mon, Wed, Fri. I will do lower first, squats, lunges, leg press, calf raises, then move on to crunches on the stablility ball just because I enjoy them then move onto upper. so for this i do push-ups, chest press with dumbbells, and tricep pull down with pully/rope. then i usually do about 30 min on the eliptical.
As for food, breakfast is 2 boiled eggs,and a whole wheat eng. muffin. snack is a bananna. lunch is tuna, on a whole when thin bun with a tbls of lite mayo and ff cottage cheese. snack is an apple. then dinner is not so strict. we eat a lot of chicken breast, turkey, and salmon once a weeek. If I do pasta it's whole wheat a lot of salds with lite italian dressing. I do a lot of lite cooking and clean eating recipies.
I guess I'm maybe looking for confirmation that what I'm doing is the RIGHT THING. I want this weight off so bad,and I think i'm always looking for the next best thing to try. Make sense?
