I pregnant with our first baby and 2 out the 3 doctors I have seen have been absolutely ugly about my size. By the BMI chart I’m 36%, but I am healthy across the board for everything, no high blood pressure or high blood sugar. I eat right, excercise, and even check my blood pressure a few times a week. It’s ridiculous that we know bmi is not a true indicator of health but they still scrutinize and traumatize women on their weight. Keep fighting the good fight, and let’s educate people on how to advocate and care for themselves!
