Hypothyroid & slow metabolism & STILL losing weight

Hi,

Does anyone have any knowledge how it's possible to be losing weight while being hypothyroid with a very slow metabolism?

I'm dealing with low adrenal function too which can cause weight loss in exhaustion stage: could this adrenal imbalance counteract the effects of hypothyroid and slow metabolism?

I've seriously increased my calories - am also including body-building formula's into my diet aswell, have purposefully slowed down my life so i'm no longer a workaholic dealing with 24/7 physical stress, yet i'm struggling to put weight on and lose it incredibly fast. I'm currently 95lbs, 4000 calories p/d, 5'7" female. It's taken 7 months to put on 5 lbs eating like a horse. I don't get it.

I've tried researching online and all i find are links to these conditions and weight gain, not weight loss.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
