oh... and one other thing about the weight. i ended up gaining over 100lbs because of the thyroid thing. Low fat programs didn't help one bit. i needed to focus on low carbohydrate eating. With low thyroid the body will lower his metabolism rather than give up it's stored fat - nice, eh? Regulating the hormone is key but then lower carbohydrate was what helped me get the weight off. i'm still a few pounds above where i should be, but i've gotten most of the weight off again.

don't despair even if it gets rocky
