Your BMI is for sure above 40. If possible, you should consult a bariatric surgeon for a simple procedure in addition to diet and exercise.

What happens when you go to an appt with a low BMI (15.3-15.8)? Usually no big deal? Or red flag to investigate? No known health or period issues, no eating disorder. Lost 20lbs in 1.5yrs accidentally but stable weight now for the last 5yrs?
