    I don't think I've ever had a doctor mention it at all in a checkup or anything, but I've always been "normal" per BMI. My family doctor used to ask me if I wanted to see the number or not and would let me weigh backwards if I said no, though.

    I was in the ER a couple weeks ago after a fainting spell and the ER doctor did say something about how my too-low blood pressure is pretty common in slim people, but he recommended more salt in my diet, not more calories.
