How much should you be charging YOUR boomerang child?... &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Share this article&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Share&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The news motivated Amanda to undergo a vertical sleeve gastrectomy, which removes 80 per cent of the stomach and limits the amount of food a person can eat to only 4oz.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The surgery helped her reduce her weight to 126lbs (9st 1Ib) but she is now left with excess skin that has made her feel extremely self-conscious and in constant discomfort.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Amanda underwent a vertical sleeve gastrectomy which helped her reduce her weight but left her with excess skin (pictured) that has made her feel self-conscious and in constant discomfort&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;She now plans to get surgery to remove her loose skin (pictured) to fully feel the benefit of her slimmer figure&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Describing the reasons behind her weight gain at a young age, Amanda said: 'Severe depression and PTSD that stemmed from physical and verbal/emotional abuse in the home from a young age was a big factor.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;'It made me hate myself and feel like I was worthless. I felt like my only goal in life was to lose weight in order for people to like me.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;'I often wished that I didn't exist anymore. I was [http://Photo.net/gallery/tag-search/search?query_string=depressed depressed] and never understood what people meant when they said that you have to learn how to love yourself; the concept of loving myself was so foreign to me.'&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Reflecting on the horrible remarks made by her relatives, she continued: 'My family would make all sorts of comments from &quot;you're never going to find a man or husband if you don't lose weight&quot; to &quot;stop being lazy&quot;.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;'They would also say, &quot;you'll never have a career if you don't lose weight&quot;, &quot;no one will ever have kids with you if you don't lose weight&quot;, &quot;you would be so beautiful if you would just lose the weight&quot;.'&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Amanda pictured during her vertical sleeve gastrectomy weight loss surgery, which removed 80 per cent of her stomach &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Amanda began her weight loss journey through therapy, admitting: 'I did not want my lifelong struggle with my weight to be what I was known for.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;'I wanted to be healthy, I wanted to have a family, and I just wanted to be happy and learn how to love myself. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;'I tried every meal plan, exercise regimen, multiple attempts at Weight Watchers, with no success. It wasn't until I was borderline PCOS and pre-diabetic that I decided I needed to do something extreme.'&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;She added: 'My weight loss surgery was extremely hard. I went into it thinking it was the easy way out, but to be honest diet and exercise would have been easier.' &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Yet while her weight loss has vastly improved her health and she is no long at risk for PCOS and diabetes, her excess skin leaves her in constant pain.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;She now plans to get surgery to remove her loose skin to fully feel the benefit of her slimmer figure and feel confident enough to date, and has set up a Go Fund Me to help raise the money for the procedure.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Amanda, pictured showing her extra skin, has set up a Go Fund Me to help raise the money for the procedure, which will remove the excess&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;'Through years of therapy, I finally can say that I love myself,' Amanda confessed. 'I finally understand what it means to love myself.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;'I no longer feel worthless, I'm happy, and I am making the most of my life. Shopping is enjoyable for the first time in my life.'&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Speaking about her discomfort around her loose skin, Amanda said: 'Having the excess skin removed is important to me because despite my weight loss, my body still looks the same, just smaller.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;'The loose skin makes me feel extremely insecure about myself and it causes me a lot of pain in my day to day life. At five-foot-two, I never realised how tiny my frame was until the weight came off.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;'With gravity pulling on my skin constantly; compression garments have become a staple in my wardrobe. My skin is often sore, sweaty, and develops rashes because of how much skin I have been left with.'&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;She added: 'My body is totally - in my opinion - disfigured and I am in major need of reconstruction.'&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Speaking about her discomfort around her loose skin (pictured), Amanda said: 'Having the excess skin removed is important to me because despite my weight loss, my body still looks the same'&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Amanda candidly explained that the extra skin (pictured) makes it hard for her to date 'because people are still very judgemental even in 2019'&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Amanda candidly explained that the extra skin makes it hard for her to date 'because people are still very judgemental even in 2019'.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;'Even if I were to meet a man, I would be very deterred from being intimate with him because of the skin,' she explained. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;'Having the skin removed would mean the world to me. I would no longer be in pain, which is my biggest concern, and I would finally feel like a normal woman, something that I have no idea what it feels like.' &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Offering advice to those struggling with weight loss, she said: 'I would say explore all of your options. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;'Don't listen to what friends and family say. At the end of the day this is your life, not theirs and the only person who matters is you.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;'Your happiness is the only thing that matters when it comes to your personal struggles, whether it be weight loss or otherwise.'&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;For confidential support call the National Suicide Prevention Line: 1-800-273-8255.
