Has your doctor checked your blood sugar levels and thyroid function? If these are imbalanced (hormones too), weight loss can be sorely hindered.
Your doctor doesn't sound very sensitive to you! I was on an anti-depressant that caused me to gain weight and my pdoc (since fired) completely believed I was lying. She even told my husband to set food traps to see if I was eating on the QT. I don't have a lot of respect for doctors who think we cheat!
Have you considered visiting a nutritionist? I think you are eating too little. This also slows metabolism as your body goes into starving mode. I'm sure you know all of this already.
Do you drink heaps of water?
I am struggling myself with my weight which does not want to budge despite 5 days a week at the gym, but then again my eating is not always what it should be, and I do admit that.
I really sense your frustration but please don't starve yourself. Perhaps you can consider looking for another doctor?
Sending you soothing thoughts.
