When you take thyroid medication, initially you will definitely lose weight. But as days goes by the thyroid medicines will work to make you not gain extra weight rather than trying to make you lose any weight. And moreover synthyroid is a very weak hormone as it is not functional part and your body has to convert it to T3 to make it more effective.

Will you lose weight fast if you are taking human growth hormone injections and synthroid pills?

Human Growth Hormone (HGH) injections have been shown to help people improve muscle tone and lose a small amount of fat. However, the results are so small that the amount of fat lost is balanced by the amount of muscle gained. In short, you will not lose weight from using HGH. Synthroid pills (synthetic thyroid hormone) has many adverse side effects and is not indicated for weight loss.
