Does starving work for everyone including hypothyroid people who take synthroid?

Does it work for what? I can't think of any reason starving is a good idea.Any change in weight when taking a thyroid medication will mean that you need to adjust the doseage. Not that you shouldn't try to lose weight if you are over-weight but, keep in mind that you will need to work with your doctor and lose weight at a reasonable pace to keep your thyroid problem in check.Like the first poster, I don't understand, for what?Starving is certainly not a good idea for anyone in anycase.
