I know, even the doctor mentioned that. Doctor: You're in the 2000 - 2300 kcal range. To me that's normal for your size. Fatty: Okaaay...so thta means there's nothing wrong with my metabolic rate? Doctor: Thank God! That fatty would rather have a dangerous medical condition than take responsibility for her health. THIS is why I hate fats. They're often lucky enough to have a properly functioning body, but through mismanagement of it, have made themselves, unattractive, unhealthy and a nuisance to those around them.
