Mandy325

Hi my name is Mandy. all my life as far as I can remember I have been overweight. I am now 25 years old and weigh 325 pounds. I am so ashamed of my weight and im working the best I can to work it off. So far i have lost nine pounds of the 325 weight. Today my dr put me on a new weight loss medication called Phentermine. She also said that at my next appointment she wanted to discuss Bariatric Weight Loss surgery. As you can probably tell this has consumed my mind and i have allot of questions and allot of worries. I haven't fully decided if i want to go through with it yet but maybe you guys can help me by offering support and answering a few questions i have. 1. Is this surgery risky in any way? 2. How do you guys feel about the recovery and success rates? 3. If i already have some mental health and self esteem issues is this a good idea? 4. My doctor told me my stomach is the last to go when loosing weight. How do i go about looosing all the access fat is my stomach area? 5. How long does this process usually take? Im trying to go from 316 to 125 Thank you for reading this and taking the time to answer my questions. i hope to make friends on here Sent from my RCT6K03W13 using BariatricPal mobile app
