They probably thought you were being hyperbolic. Maybe if you [wikipedia]sited your sources[/wikipedia] it would help?

I cited them...

Then I got told that I was being mean and negative :)

well, reality is often harsher than maintaining delusions, at least initially.

Hey there! I commented on your post in the Seattle community. I really admire how you didn't lose your cool when people were being all fat-hating and nasty. I could barely read the comments without spitting fire.

Anyway, I'd love to hear more about your doctor & your experiences with her, as well as her name. Thanks so much for being willing to share that with me!

And hey! You're a fatshionista! Me too. :)

People have so many misconceptions about fat and the Seattle LJ just likes being snarky and making assumptions!

The doctor I see is Angela Heithaus, at the Seattle Healing Arts Center. Although I don't know that she *entirely* agrees with my choice to not talk about weight, she's never mentioned it to me after I initially asked her not to do so. She's been very proactive about treating the issues that I've come to her with and I'm reasonably happy with her.
