Underactive Thyroid, Weight Loss, and How The Yes Diet Can Help
Living with hypothyroidism can be frustrating, but the right nutritional approach can make weight loss realistic and achievable.
What is Hypothyroidism?
An underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism) happens when the thyroid gland does not produce enough hormones to regulate the body’s metabolism properly. Since thyroid hormones control how your body uses energy, a slowdown often leads to fatigue, weight gain, and difficulty losing weight, even with regular dieting and exercise.
For many people living with hypothyroidism, this can be incredibly frustrating. Traditional diets don’t always work because the metabolism is slower, making it harder to burn calories efficiently. Without the right nutritional approach, weight loss with an underactive thyroid can feel almost impossible.

Fewer calories are burned at rest, making fat loss harder.

The scale may rise even if fat isn’t being stored.

Cravings and appetite signals can be disrupted.
