My sister in law went to the gyno (a female) who told her for her age and size she needs to lose about 30 pounds because she is technically obese and this could lead to problems with conceiving.
My sister in law is STILL pissed a year later, but she hasn't done ANYTHING to take the weight off.
That's what kills me. The doc was being honest. But her defense is "Well, it isn't like I don't KNOW I need to lose weight but she basically told me I am too fat to have babies." No, that is not what she said at all.
People hate to be told to their face what their problems/shortcomings are and I think this is another issue of that. But the fact is, as her doctor, it is his job to try and help her become HEALTHY. She's obese, which leads to <insert over a hundred medical issues> what should he say "uhm, so, ya want some phen phen?"
(btw I know that is an illegal substance now, it was an example)
