Doctor Visit I was at the doctor's office today for my annual physical.  The doc finished up with me and left the room and sat at his work area which is right across from the exam room.  The door was closed but I heard him call a patient about their blood test results.  The message went like this: "Hi this is your doctor calling you back about your blood results and there are a couple of things that require attention.  First, your cholesterol level is significantly higher than it should be, I am not comfortable with the level.  Starting ASAP you need to exercise at least three times per week, and at least half an hour at a time.  You will also need to start a low-carb diet ASAP, if you need me to send you information regarding the diet please let me know and I'll be happy to send you info." "Second, there are elevated levels of (Don't know what he said) in your liver which is most likely a direct result of the obesity and high cholesterol.  Again, exercise and cutting out the carbs/sugars will help bring these levels down.  If you have any questions please feel free to call me." Then as I was checking out, a woman in her 40's came in and got her height and weight checked.  I didn't hear the entire conversation between her and the nurse, but I did hear: "Yea it's about 20 lbs more this time...but the scale is lying...Teheheheeee." Me and one other guy were the only ones in the entire office (Minus the nurses & Docs) who weren't overweight/obese.
