I am not impressed by people who add a lot of letters after their names, or a bunch of titles in front of their names.

Kindness.
Wisdom.
Humility.
Integrity.

I ran into a former colleague today whom I haven’t seen in 2 years (while 36 weeks pregnant). He casually says “Hey, what you been up to?!”. I look down at my belly and say “this”. He pulls up his phone and shows me this

the history of medicine's, and industry's, reckless disregard for fat people's safety in the zeal to get them to lose weight is very, very disturbing
