I have a close female friend that has been struggling with dieting and losing fat after her babies. She has all th symptoms of Hashimoto's or at very least hypothyroidism.
She was a bikini competitor for several years , has her head screwed on tight with dieting and training but since she had her twins she is having a really hard time losing fat. She started back in the gym 3 months postpartum and came back with 15 pounds of her stage weight and now she's stuck.
She says she feels TOTALLY different as far as energy, endurance , health , always cold , brittle hair and nails , complexion.
I figured it was hormones but she had that checked and everything is back close to where she was the year before she got pregnant. She hasn't had a thyroid panel done yet but her family dr swears it all sounds like Hashimoto's.
Any of you guys ever deal with anything like this or have any suggestions on supplements that might help
