i think docs are brainwashed 'norm-droids' . there are healthy people who happen to be heavy, and there are sick people who happen to be thin. if you've tried and tried everything to change and you can't, they really ought to respect that, maybe even look for some underlying factor.

psych meds are often the cause of weight gain, but the pdoc says it's better to be "normalish" and have side effects. then the GP, MD says it's our fault. i stopped listening years ago, and even started distorting the truth recently, just to shut them up. i've been living with me, 24/7 for over 60 yrs, and they have seen me for less than a day. i'm a blip in with 60 other blips a day for most of them.

you are doing more than most to take care of yourself, it sounds like to me, np.
