[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 1937947, member: 41816"] Well, I think he has a legitimate concern that anyone letting themselves ‘obsess’ about food and weight may be setting themselves up for disordered eating and long term consequences/unhealthy changes in eating patterns. He probably sees a lot of people with what he considers excessive health concerns and health anxiety arrive in his consulting room, and is trying to allay their concerns and prevent over controlling habits from developing. Plus, the nhs does not authorise the distribution of glucometers to prediabetics. It isn’t considered necessary, and is considered a waste of public funds. Having said that, being amused at my concerns and patting me on the head would never bring me round to anyone’s point of view. Would that work on anyone? I doubt it. [/QUOTE]
