Have you read Mary Shoman's book on Thyroid Diet?  A lot of information in it...

There is no thyroid specific diet, but several books give good general advice on weight issues.  If the thyroid function is normal or slightly high (due to cancer history), there is not much to do from a medication adjustment standpoint.
