If you have thyroid disease and have tried everything to lose weight (exercise, Lipofuze, diets, etc.), you should really have your T3 hormone levels checked.  If they're not in the high normal range, you should consider raising your T3 levels (with prescription T3).  A small bump in mine has made all the difference. 

Also, most doctors don't check this, but request that your Reverse T3 be checked.  If your Reverse T3 is high, all the T4 you  are taking isn't going to help you because it's not converting into T3 correctly but instead converting into Reverse T3 (which isn't good).  If your doctor won't test your T3 or T4, and only depends on the TSH levels, you need a new doctor.
