Katerina 20-- You should be so proud of yourself having lost a significant amount of weight and keeping it off! Great job!

When did the depression begin? Was it your doctor's suggestion that you lose 40 more that set it off or had it been building before then?

As far as losing weight with Orlistat, you are right - it's a ridiculous idea. Your doctor may have prescribed it but you do not have to put it in your mouth - or even fill the prescription. If you are taking the Orlistat, it may well be responsible for your depression.

As far as loose skin, for some people it tightens, for others it does not. Some people wear support garments that help them look good in clothes. For some that is a long term solution; others will want to undergo surgery. There is no right or wrong.

All the best to you, whatever you decide.
