Doctors

Hi

I am just wanting to know what i can do about a doctor who is always asking me to loose weight,

Basically i live in Australia weigh about 314lbs, do exercise regularly. dont find myself short of breath when i do so either.

my doctor said last time i went and saw him "your weight has gone up again"

he then went on to say "if you can not get your weight down we are going to have to look at other options:

now in that consoltation when i mentioned blood pressure and blood glucose levels and other things i was worried about. he said that they are all excelent, and that i am one of the healthiest patients that he has.

i confronted him about why then he is telling me i must loose weight and he basically said "being overweight just puts extra load on your body, you have a higher risk of getting some kinds of cancer, but for the most part it is just apperance, enevitably it is cancer is the most likely way to go anyway"

i however have no issues with how big i am and am actually very comfortable and welcome it.

how should i confront the doctor and tell him i am not interested in going on a diet?

basically my blood pressure blood glucose are perfect, HDL cholesterol is low but so is LDL cholesterol, all else is fine too.

has anyone else had to confront this before?

Regards

Barry
