I don't get why they need to single out a person's weight as worthy of including. Why not height, eye color, hair style, style of dress, education level, sexual orientation, etc.? It's sad to me to think a perfect stranger like one's T on the first visit would choose to memorialize his impressions about a new client's weight in his files. (I am overweight so am sensitive to this.)

Eye color doesn't mean anything and hair and dress haven't been seen over time and may/may not mean anything. Education and sexual orientation might not be known right at first.

It is weird but I saw my T from about 1978-87 when I weighed 127-160ish (I started to gain when I started to see her; later I blamed my weight gain on the success of therapy ) and then again 1996-2005 when I weighed 220-270. Only once in that second period did we ever discuss my weight and on another occasion in the second period she made an unsolicited :-) comment about it, noting that she saw I had gained a lot of weight since she knew me before.
