Jen,

I had fairly regular TSH tests for years after treatment, and for quite a while they were showing my thyroid was moderately underactive (but not quite enough to justify medication). I was actually starting to put on somewhat MORE weight than I wanted, but then the next TSH test came back more toward the normal range and my weight seems (miraculously) to have adjusted back down to what it was when I got married over 30 years ago. I can live with that!
