Mini moon goes to the doctor, thyroid function is higher than average As with many of you shitlords, I work in an office with all fats, the exceptions being my manager and myself exclusively.  Although people there are constantly discussing how they can lose weight blah blah blah, one planet was constantly complaining about how her metabolism was terrible and she was trying so hard, only to fail because of her unfortunate gunetics (idk where this came from as both her parents and all of her siblings are normal weight). All this was taking place in the midst of fast food AT LEAST once a day, a constant drip of beetus juice and zero exercise.  On top of that, she was a typical fat and missed at least a day of work per week, usually for a hangover that magically became the flu overnight.  Luckily, this eventually got her fired, besides being exceedingly horrible at her very simple job. In talking to her one day, she had decided that it was time for her to get some thyroid medication (another girl there has Graves disease and has NO THYROID AT ALL but mentioned that starting synthroid helped her lose some weight).  Anything to avoid eating less, right? I told her if she really thinks it is a problem, then sure, go to the doctor.  She went a full on endocrinologist, fully expecting him to coddle her and say it wasn't her fault she was a whale, but lo and behold that's not what happened.  She also thought it  might be thyroid because she was 'tired all the time". She came back to work and told me that her doctor had run the tests and that her thyroid function was ABOVE AVERAGE.  It was only by a few points but that was more than enough for me.  For the rest of the day you could not wipe the grin off my face.  I also thought it was funny that she said when she initially consulted with the endocrinologist he seemed a little annoyed/in a bad mood, saying that her tiredness was probably something else, yet she decided that she still wanted to take the test.  I wonder how many fats have gone this route, only to find their excuses to be bullshit.  I also feel sorry for that endocrinologist.  No doubt he has seen too many fats with "thyroid issues" in his clinic, that waddle in to waste his time because they are holding on the last string of hope that their gluttony and sloth is not actually the cause of the problem.
