Hello and thank you for asking! I read carefully your concerns. I do not think that the under active thyroid is the cause of this huge weight gain. I suppose you are taking levothyroxine after thyroidectomy in order to substitute the thyroid function. I would suggest to try a low calorie diet with a nutritionistnutritionist physical activity for three months and if they result ineffective than surgical intervention to reduce the gastric volume is suggested. I would not recommend apple vinegar for the appetite because it may cause gastritis even ulcera. Hope i was helpful. Kind regards, Dr.Mirjeta
