Weight loss is common with hyperthyroidism. You should regain the weight easily once you are on treatment. You can consume eggs. I am not sure if the dose if carbimazole that you are taking is enough or not. Usual requirement is 20-30 mg per day. If your symptoms havent improved the dose needs to be increased. You may also take Tab Propanolol 40 mg once a day. The above advise is presuming you have Graves disease and other causes of hyperthyroidism have been ruled out.
