    Dear Kiki Kitty Meow,

    Is that a pr0n name? Anyhoo, fire your quack doctor, and use the BMI calculator. You're on the high side of normal weight. Unless you have health problems, just eat healthy and exercise for maintenance.

    Um..I would get a second opinion on that. At your current weight your BMI is a normal healthy 23.5. Weighing 90lbs would put your BMI at 18.2, which is under weight. I can't imagine a competent doctor would recommend that.

    Really?! I'm so sorry you have such a misinformed doctor, especially given the fact you are suffering from an ED. I seriously suggest you seek some professional support who specializes in your particular situation. We here can offer support and inspiration but a DR trained in ED is your best bet to get you on the right path :smile:

    Best of luck
