Test results are in....

Well, I finally got the results of the test my doctor made me take. It came out exactly as I had thought it would. He seemed a little perturbed that someone of my size doesn't have diabetes. I passed the glucose tolerance test with flying colours.
 
My body is large. It always has been, even when my ribs showed. Maybe he'll pay more attention now to what I say and less to the textbooks. BMI is not always accurate, nor is the 35" waist cut-off. I admit I need to lose weight; but I doubt I will ever fit into the standards he thinks I should.

Anyway, this is supposed to be a positive post and not a rant against medical stereotyping. So, hurray! I can still enjoy desserts and wine.
