Weight Loss Road Block

An

I have been trying so hard for months and months and months between my health being shit and being in and out of hospitals and doctors offices and just feeling like absolute shit about myself and my life right now to lose weight. I eat healthy and have drunk more water than I'm sure is necessary, and I've lost about 50 pounds over the past few months. Glad about that. But: It. WILL. NOT. Go. Beyond. My. Current. Weight.

I maintain this current weight for months now. And I don't just want to lose more, but need to. My legs are pretty much useless, I have to permanently walk with forearm crutches. Now, I'm having severe pain in my right side that they think is my gallbladder - and bending and moving and working out is just a big NO right now. Even trying upper body since I can only do so much with my legs, the pain is so bad that I have to take a break.

But, this issue was before this ever came up. I eat right, I move, I take my vitamins I am supposed to. I'm not a diabetic, according to my doctor nothing is wrong with my thyroid.

Why won't it go down? What else can I do? I'm at a loss because I'm following all the guidelines my doctor gave me and -nothing- is working. Now, all of a sudden they're talking about a fatty liver and "the only help would be more weight loss." BUT NOTHING IS WORKING!!!

And it's definitely not helping my self-esteem.. I don't binge eat, when I want a snack, I eat fruit.. Should I talk to my doctor about surgery? I've considered it back and forth for a long time now... and I have been trying for years just to get this weight off.. I'm 21. This should not be that hard... 😢
