My BMI is now 30.1
I lost about 23 pounds in my first month of diet and exercise. Yesterday I saw a primary care physician who specializes in weight loss. I was worried that losing weight too quickly could create problems, but she said not to worry about it as long as I am getting adequate nutrition.
I eat 1700-1900 calories per day . 6ft0 male age 34 current weight 222, highest weight was about a month ago 245
The doctor also prescribed Phentermine 15mg , and recommended to continue to stay on the medication even once I have reached my ideal weight of 170 pounds. I have lost weight in the past but always gained it back after 6/12 months…. And keep getting heavier each time
My question….
I had never been this heavy before (245, BMI 33.2) and I am terrified about having loose skin. I read a lot online that it says losing weight quickly can contribute to loose skin, and exercising can help to reduce the problem. But the more I exercise I he more I lose weight , so these two things seem contradictory? Also I am wondering if this is really accurate , how does the rate of weight loss have any effect on the actual skin itself , does that even make sense ? And how would exercise accomplish anything ?
