My OBGYN during my second pregnancy was a fatty that refused to give me medication and told me to eat my nausea away.  ?!? That's got to be the stupidest "medical advice" ever.  I guess fats simply can't conceive of being violently in the mood NOT to eat. I also found it quite telling that the author of the adipose-apologist REEE article doesn't mention any numbers...her weight when becoming pregnant, how much it gained, etc.  We all know that "eating a little extra" = 100 lbs+
