Hypothyroidism and liposuction - I want to get rid of this fat.

April 4, 2017
Asked By:hlv905 in Laguna Niguel, CA

I am 27 years old, 5"4 and 155 pounds. I eat very little and exercise 5x a week, either walking or weight lifting because i have bad joints and feet. I have all the symptoms of hypothyroidism and the only thing that's stopped me form blowing up liek a balloon is my intense regulation of what i eat and how much I move. i feel so sad, so old and tired... i want to get rid of this fat but im concerned my condition will make it all come back. any thoughts?
