So i went ot the doctors this morning, knowing that i lost some weight i was waiting to here what my doctor was going to say. Well when she is looking at how i grew, she noticed i was 70kg(154 pounds) and now i am 66.5 kg(146 pounds) plus i grew 3 inches. Well she was very suprised as she noticed i was less than i was last year, and said "you shoulnd't have lost any weight, so we must have wrote it down wrong, as 70 kg is awfully a lot". kind of embaressed when she said this, i told her i never thought i lost amy weight, and she said "good, young girls like u don't need to lose weight, u have to accept your body for who u are" and i just smiled and nodded. so she kept the theory that it was just wriiten down wrong. then she told me dad this and he told her i have slimmed down a bit, but once she said 70kg he was blown away and said (even tho it is only 8 more pounds than i am now) wow, thats a lot i don't think she weighted that. so that kind got me mad, espescially considering throughout the year i made it to 170. so i know i shouldn't go against what my doctor thinks, but i don't think she is the best of doctors as she told me i should never use a tampon as they might kill me (which i know has some truth, but the chance is like 0.006 %) so do u think, although my doctor says not too its ok to continue losing weight?
