Let me see if we can find some information for you! You said that you weigh 235 pounds, and I am wondering how tall you are?
You had your gall bladder removed a year ago (June 2007), and gained 60 pounds (so you used to weigh 175 pounds, correct?). Why do you believe this is "water weight" (which I'm not sure if 60 pounds could all be attributed to water??). I'm asking because if you are 5 feet, 4 inches tall or shorter, then even at 175 pounds before surgery, you were probably struggling with your weight...is this correct?). Have you had success in the past with losing weight? Is your weight gain associated with not being able to take pain medication, or something else?
What tumors did you have removed in 1984, and did this cause premature menopause?
Can you help me understand if you are in pain currently from your gall bladder surgery last year, from your weight gain, from medication you were allergic to (but this was 14 years ago...is there still some complications from this?), or from going through "the change" (which I assume is menopause?). What symptoms are you struggling with, so that we can help you?
