Thyroid will do it to you every time!! If you're on the right dosage of of the right formulation, a lot of that tummy will melt off life magic (although it might take a couple of months).
As an aside, synthetic thyroid meds didn't do crap for me. I like the Armour or Natroid thyroid meds.
Another thing to check is insulin levels. If you have anything even RESEMBLING Polycystic ovarian syndrome (or whatever that syndrome is called), your insulin levels will be too high. Insulin is a "storage hormone" and it'll pack away fat, especially in the abdominal region. Hyper insulin levels also PREVENT your body from burning fat.
If the belly doesn't start going down as a result of being on the thyroid, I would...
A) Check your blood levels (TSH, T4 and free T3) to see if your thyroid meds are working
B) Check your insulin levels as well.
Some people with PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome) take a medication called Glucophage which counteracts the excess insulin. Glucophage was original a diabetic medication, but it has other uses as well. For PCOS, Glucophage is taken in addition to whatever else is needed to "cure" the PCOS. (I never had PCOS, but I know people who did.)
The advantage of taking Glucophage is that it removes the excess insulin that is telling your body to store fat in your abdomen.
Yes it was the couple of year change from Armour to Synthroid that wrecked me up. I'm back on Armour, this time a much higher dose.
