Test results are in....
mood: 
happy
happyMy 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.
Good news
I can sympathize with your BMI woes. A couple of years ago, I decided to lose weight because my doctor was also concerned about the possibility of diabetes or heart disease. I actually did very well and lost 60 lbs -- most of which I've managed to keep off. However, it's a struggle to stick to a healthier lifestyle. I've been putting in longer hours lately and haven't had time to squeeze in a walk after work. I was also in a crappy mood yesterday and ended up eating a dark chocolate Toblerone. Uh, the smaller size not the huge one. Anywaaaaay, at this rate, I think I'll have definitely added a few more pounds by New Year's... *g*
