I know which problems aren't caused by my weight and which ones are, that's why I don't immediately trust my doctors or the ones I met in the ER when I was having problems. They like to blame it on my weight but it turns out it was stress exacerbated already existing autoimmune diseases or worse. It was real fucking fun being told my fat ass was the reason why I was getting these stupid fucking bumps and welts all over my skin it was just pressure from my weight. When I had a competent doctor turns out the first condition I had was MRSA and the second condition I had was vasculitis.
My friend hated his doctors in California (he moved to Arizona) at Kaiser. One doctor told him "you're pre-diabetic," and my friend responded "you're pre-diabetic!" Doctor didn't know what to say, so my friend says "do I have diabetes?" And the doctor said "no."
Yes, but "pre-diabetic" is not nothing. It usually means you're having insulin regulation issues which means, among other things, that you get ravenously, painfully hungry even after you've eaten. Once your'e insulin-resistant, you're on a speed train to out of control weight gain and constant fatigue. The only way to deal with it is to go low-carb.
