Does anyone with hypothyroidism have experience with the Isagenix program? I’m healthy, already, so I’d like to try the 9-day program. I lift weights three times a week and exercise strenuously almost on a daily basis (most days 60 minutes). I also have good eating habits, and I’m trying this, because with my hypothyroidism, I still have trouble losing weight. I’ve built muscle and made it a practice to eat 5-6 small meals a day to keep my metabolism strong. I’ve also been drinking Oolong Tea on a daily basis, to help boost metabolism and fat burning. Anytime I’ve worked with a personal trainer in the past, they’ve emphasized eating enough calories to support metabolism, weight loss, while keeping muscle–1700 cal/day.

With the low calories and the cleanse days, does this have a negative impact on metabolism for those who have Hypothyroidism? Has anyone had this condition and had success? How about extremely physically active people? 950 calories a day doesn’t seem enough.
