Hello,
My name is Allie, I am 24 years old and my starting weight was 350lbs. I am currently weighing in at 320lbs. I have been doing research and considering surgery for about 6 years now. I have finally decided to take the plunge and have completed all the necessary classes through the hospital I just have to lose the 10% of weight. I am going to Tufts Medical Center in Boston and my surgeon is Dr. Scott Shikora and I have been going since january of 2011. I had lost the 30lbs prior to the first appt and am finding it very difficult to lose more weight. I am currently insulin resistant but don't have type 2 diabetes and I also have PCOS. I am on 2000mg of metformin once a day and have been for about a year and a half. I have been overweight for most of my life and find any diet or work out plan has never helped me in achieving weight loss. It seems no matter how hard I work I can't get the weight off.
Well if you have anymore questions please ask!
