Suggest Remedy To Loose Weight

I am 27 and in the past 5 yrs I've gained 60lbs, had my gullbladder out, been diagnosed with IBS and Hypothyroidism. I am on Venlafaxine, synthroid and birth control. I have maintained an active lifestyle, eat healthy and work out 3xs a week at the gym. Since October 2010 I have only lost 25lbs, is there anything else you suggest I try to take th weight off?

I hope your hypothyroidism is under control as it causes weight gain. Also, I would suggest to balance your carbohydrate intake and increase protein rich diet which will complement your exercise.
