I’m fat. Not morbidly obese, but I have a big gut that I really need to work on. All the women in my life pick on me about it, but that’s OK. Sooner or later I will be sufficiently motivated to do something about it.
The point is, I call it fat. I know I am fat. I take full responsibility for being fat. No need to sugarcoat it.
I am pretty sure this doctor has had just about as much PC crap as he was willing to listen to and decided to clue the FAT woman in on things.
What a concept, you are responsible for your self..
I guess you are not a liberal?
Liberals would blame it on everyone else rather than except responsibility for there own actions..
Slainte..
The doctor in this case demanded the woman who wanted gastric bypass surgery “go on a diet.’ She said it would be better to seek a “life style change.” She was right; he was wrong.
You are right - there is no need to deny our problems. Your problem is obvious - right on your body for everyone to see. But be sure, all the ones pointing about your fat tummy have many serious problems that are unseen.
