Can liposuction and breast reduction help me lose 25lbs?

January 23, 2015
Asked By:snoopers in Toronto, ON

I gained 20 pounds (up from 135lbs) from hypothyroid, side effects from medication (I'm bipolarll). I'm being treated with increased thryroid medication. I've developed osteoarthritis because of the added pressure on my knees. I consume 1100 calories a day, diet is mostly veg and I don't drink alcohol. Exercise is limited due to my joint pain. My breasts have gone from a D to an E. Is lipo and breast reduction a good option for me? I need to get rid of this weight before it does more damage.
