[Everything doTERRA] Re: Major Addiction

Has she had her Thyroid checked? I have a friend who suffered from
the same thing. We would go to the gym daily, work out like crazy
people every day and she still didn't loose weight. In fact she was
gaining. She went into the doctor and had a slew of tests done and
found out that she was suffering from a Thyroid issue.

Hope she figures out what is going on.

Best Wishes
Rachel
