[QUOTE="ally5555, post: 10142, member: 7357"] Doctors sometimes say stupid things and I have had patients in tears with comments like that - I remember one lady who had lost 11 stone and the doctor encouraged her by calling her fat!! My wt is normal but patients frequently say to me well its allright for you, you don't have a problem with your wt - well i would if I ate rubbish but i don't! I often use myself as an example that is if I can keep my weight under control then you can - I think some find that reassuring . I have had pateints say oh I bet you only eat lettuce! Oh dear Dietitians cannot win! [/QUOTE]
