Hey Lea,

I can sympathise with the gastro problems, completely, although borne out of a different nature. My problems were through substance abuse and stopping eating almost completely in lieu of substance use, as well as Bulimic traits.

It's very good that you're seeking advice from your doctor, but it also might be an idea to get referred to a Dietician, to work a plan of how you can lose weight healthily, if you need to, and the options available in doing that. Also, if necessary, a referral to an ED therapist may help, too.

I wish you the best, I can completely sympathise with how difficult this must be for you.

However, I very strongly emphasise, that losing weight unhealthily can cause drastic changes in the way your stomach and gut processes food, leading to gastro problems that can cause major havoc. Please try to continue liasing with your doctor and get referrals from them.

Michy.

And I was in the darkness,
So darkness I became.
