Dear Lybrateuser, - Yes, her problem can be solved once her hormone level is brought to normal by medication - also she should have more of fibre containing foods like fruits & vegetables, whole grains instead of refined grains, love fat dairy & healthy fats as in olive, canola oil, walnuts, seafood, avocado, also have more of protein rich foods like beans, lentils, pulses, sprouts (include an item with each meal & also as snacks to loose weight) - restrict fried, processed, carbohydrates & junk foods - do regular exercise like walking for 20-30 min daily - monitor thyroid hormone levels regularly till normalise with medication, consult an endocrinologist.
