I've been extremely hypothyroid for at least 17 years but have always lost at least a little weight when I modified my diet - could never stick with whatever diet it was though. I've been on McD for just over a year, have lost 67 lbs with little effort and no hunger and that includes a couple months of pretty severe "cheating". I lost weight more easily in the beginning but now find that I must stay mostly away from bread, cereal, fruit, and sugar to keep losing. I can eat those things (and more) and maintain but not lose. I've only exercised sporadically. I've read others posts that say their hypothyroidism has improved with McD but my tests have remained the same. I feel a whole lot better though. For me, this was the one - maybe for you also!!
