medical charts suck.
at the medical center in bethesda, every time you have an appointment, you have to go down to medical records, pick up your chart and take it with you to the clinic. yeah... not such a good idea when you're nosy and can't help but open it. i'm sitting there in the waiting room with my husband and i open up the folder. what does it say right on that first page? morbidly obese. those are not good words. they made me cry. i know that i'm fat. but i guess i just don't see myself as *that* fat. i really need to change. i need to stop making excuses and just do something. like get my lazy butt off the computer. lol.

Oh, hell. I type those reports (although not for your medical center). It makes me want to slug doctors from other countries who describe someone American as being 170 pounds, average height, and morbidly obese. They must all just think we're fat cows.
Hugs Katz. I'd probably have looked at mine, too, and cried.
I would SO not call you MORBIDLY OBESE. I am not even just being nice. I wouldn't.
