    T3 for obese woman?

    My sister is very obese, she's tried everything and nothing works, coz she can't keep diets. She has **O, so dieting is out.
    She is signed up for surgery, think it's called something like gastro something bypass.
    However since shes in better health than 99% of people, she'll have to wait like 2 years for the surgery.

    She's at a point where she has trouble moving, she can't walk their dog etc.
    In 2 years time they'll have to forklift her to the hospital.

    So I thought that T3 might be a way to atleast slow down her weight gain.....

    Thoughts and advice is greatly appreicated!

    When she can no longer walk, do not pack snack cakes to her. Only take healthy food to her in normal portions.
    Why is she required to wait 2 years, is it Canada? Why is dieting out the window? Has she seen an endocrinologist? At her weight thyroid medicine is something a dr. should prescribe. You could cause her bloodpressure to go?

    She has an eating disorder, that's why dieting is tough. We live in europe, and the waiting list is that long primarily due to the fact that she has perfect health stats apart from the weight, so people w high bloodpreassure and diabetes get's the surgery before her.
