Zero appetite (hypothyroid)

So for the past fortnight I have been trying to lose weight. I have only lost 1.5 lb. I also have no appetite, and it is a struggle to get at least 400 calories in. I'm 2st overweight so should be fine, but could this be the levels being out of whack? Is it worth a GP trip? TBH my appetite reaction was already a bit off but my like this. T.I.A x

I don't have any advice as I've only recently been diagnosed.
But I'm on 25mg Levo and have been feeling this way for the past 2 weeks. 2st overweight here too

Do you know what your levels were when you were last tested? They say a TSH if below 1 is best for those with underactive Thyroid. Definitely go and see your doctor as they may be able to test you again and give you an increase. Good luck!
