so my mom has started telling me how the reason I am fat is because I had my tonsils removed a few years back.
I never took any notice of this because it's ridiculous, and my whole family is fat.
When I visited last weekend somehow the subject came up, and I told my mom how it makes no sense, and that the whole family is fat so why would it be different to me.
She said that as a child I was very different to my brothers. Very skinny, while they were always heavier.
I've also just had another look on ask.com after never finding anything on google.
Somehow ask.com and I get along much better - suddenly I found tonnes of sites saying that this can be a side effect.
It's very weird how I always refused for the weight thing to become such a big issue, but here I am again giving in to dieting and exercising as I so often before tried, not lsoing anything.
My mom said she wishes the doc had told her before rather than after all was done. She said she wouldn't have let me have the opperation and that somehow we would have made it through me being sick all the time together.
I know it's ridiculous to blame me being fat on a doctor but somehow I can't help wondering if things would be different if he had simply mentioned this before...
