Chapter 018: I'm Not Sick
Looking at another braised lion's head, which was eaten by Li Ting in three or two bites, Lin Jie couldn't help but tease: "Li Ting, have you not eaten since yesterday for tonight's party?"
Li Ting put the last braised lion's head in the casserole into her small plate, and glanced at Lin Jie, "Cut, I haven't eaten anything delicious, am I such a tasteless person?"
"I saw you and saw you again, so I was in a good mood and had a great appetite. ”
She added, "I'm going to invite you this time, and you're going to eat more! You're still so skinny, like a refugee who escaped from a refugee camp!"
Lin Jie shook his head lightly and insisted: "I said it all, I invited you! I can already make money on my own, unlike you who are still a student and have to ask your parents for money!"
He bent his arm again, showed off his upper arm muscles, and said with a smile: "Tell you, I'm five pounds fatter than a month ago." Your measure of fat and thinness is seriously unbalanced, don't compare your body shape to mine. ”
Li Ting is used to Lin Jie's teasing, and she doesn't care about him at all!
After eating the last lion's head, she took a tissue and wiped her mouth, took out a card from her bag, handed it to Lin Jie, and said, "Your body is still too weak, this is a fitness card." You can ask the trainer of the gym to tailor a training plan for you, so as to improve your physical fitness!"
This is a silver-gray card, with the two artistic words "Blue Bird" printed on the front.
Lin Jie glanced at it a few times, handed the card back to Li Ting, and politely refused: "Thank you! Although I have made a little money, I have not yet made enough money, and I can spend money to go to the gym! ”
"This is my fitness card, and I've been a member for a year. ”
Li Ting was very depressed and said: "Yaya, there is no one who is in poor shape when I go to the gym to exercise, I don't want to be regarded as a giant panda to point fingers, I only go once and then I don't go anymore." ”
"It's a waste to put this card here for me, it's cheap for you!"
Hearing her say this, Lin Jie put the card away with a smile and said, "Then I will accept it reluctantly, thank you! Don't say, I really need to exercise systematically!"
When the two came out of the restaurant, it was already the beginning of the day.
They strolled the sidewalks, aimlessly strolling to eat.
"Do you know the matter between Xiang Haobo and Ling Mengjiao?" Lin Jie found a topic.
"I don't know, but I can guess with my heels, I must have abandoned Xiang Haobo from the beginning!" Li Ting said with great disdain: "This guy, relying on some stinky money in the family and a handsome person, provoked a lot of girls in high school." At that time, I thought, he must be a fool of the girl, and sure enough!"
Seeing Li Ting's indignant appearance, Lin Jie felt a little funny, and said faintly: "Rich, handsome, and sweet-talking, this is capital, attracting one girl after another, moths to his arms!"
"What? are you very envious and yearning?"
Hearing that Li Ting's tone was a little unkind, Lin Jie hurriedly explained: "How could it be! I just sighed that God is too unfair." Like Xiang Haobo, he has everything, but he doesn't cherish it much!"
"And like me, my life experience is miserable enough, and God is very stingy to give me a sick body. ”
Seeing that the topic became a little heavy, Lin Jie hurriedly changed the topic: "People like Xiang Haobo have received offers from American universities, and for you, it's even more of a matter of getting caught." ”
"Don't you want to study abroad?"
Li Ting nodded and said: "The education level of Binhai University is not much worse than that of famous foreign universities, and there is no need to spend so much unjust money! Besides, let me eat milk, bread, cereal or something every day, I will not be able to stand it." ”
Lin Jie said in his heart, it is estimated that the latter sentence is the real reason why you are reluctant to study abroad!
The weather in late May is already a bit muggy in Marina City.
Many fashionable girls walking on the street have already put on short skirts or hot pants, and their smooth long legs have swayed past Lin Jie's eyes from time to time, attracting his gaze from time to time, and even talking to Li Ting, he also began to get distracted.
Li Ting snorted and said angrily: "Lin Jie, walking with a girl, but his eyes are unabashedly peeking at other girls!
Lin Jie was a little sneering, and immediately went to the right side of Li Ting's body, expressing his determination not to peek anymore with practical actions.
Seeing that he looked like an angry little daughter-in-law, being squeezed between the sidewalk and the shops on the street, Li Ting's smile just floated on her face, but there was an indescribable sentimentality that suddenly hit her heart.
"My most hated summer is finally coming, it makes my flesh have nothing to hide! Lin Jie, sometimes I can't wait to use a knife to cut off all the excess flesh on my body!"
Looking at Li Ting's round body, stepping down, her whole body trembled, Lin Jie also felt really sorry for her.
He asked silently: "Sister Lan Ruo, what can you do about this situation of my classmate?"
"When she was in junior high school, she was so fat, she used many ways to lose weight, and even fainted with hunger, but it didn't have any effect!"
Shen Lanruo's voice immediately sounded, "In her case, there is a possibility, one is hereditary obesity, the body genes contain factors that are prone to obesity, and it belongs to the physique of drinking cold water to grow meat, in this case, it is difficult to lose weight!"
"The other is pathological obesity, most likely with a lesion of the pituitary gland."
With Shen Lanruo mentioning the pituitary gland, a lot of knowledge naturally poured out.
This pituitary gland is located in the center of the base of the human brain and weighs only 0.6 grams, but it is very important and is known as the "head of the endocrine glands" in the human body.
It can be said to be the most important endocrine gland in the human body, secreting a variety of hormones, such as growth hormone, thyroid-stimulating hormone, adrenocorticotropic hormone, gonadotropin, oxytocin, prolactin, melanocytostimulant, etc.
These hormones play an important role in human metabolism, growth, development, and reproduction.
Once a person's pituitary gland is diseased, affecting the secretion of a certain hormone, people will get very strange diseases, such as dwarfism, gigantism, impotence, a man does not look like a man, or a woman does not look like a woman, etc.
Perhaps, Li Ting really has a lesion in the pituitary gland?
Lin Jie, who thought so, opened his mouth and asked, "Li Ting, among your parents, grandparents, grandparents and other immediate relatives, are there any of your immediate relatives who have the same body shape as you?"
Li Ting shook her head in annoyance and said, "No, their body shapes are very standard." Especially my mom and dad, their body shape is toned, I don't have to say, I'm an outlier!"
"If I hadn't looked like my mother when I was a child, I would have thought I was a child picked up by my parents. ”
In this way, the possibility of hereditary obesity is relatively small.
Lin Jie pondered for a moment and said, "Li Ting, I suddenly remembered a report I read on the Internet, saying that once a person's pituitary gland has some lesions, people may get very strange diseases, such as dwarfism, gigantism, obesity, etc.!"
"Li Ting, is your situation because of a lesion in your pituitary gland?"
"You're sick?"
Li Ting glared at Lin Jie with some annoyance and shouted, "I have a physical examination every year, and I have also done a detailed examination in the hospital. I'm fat, but I'm healthy, I'm not sick at all!"
Lin Jie knew that what he had just said touched her sore spot, and hurriedly explained: "Li Ting, don't be angry, I don't mean anything else, I just want to help you!"
"It is said that the pituitary gland is very small, and it is difficult to detect even if it is a lesion. Unless you use a high-resolution MRI to specifically examine the pituitary gland, it is possible to find out if there is an abnormality!"
Li Ting's eyes glared at Ti Yuyuan, and said angrily: "I'll say it again, I'm not sick!Lin Jie, I'm starting to hate you now, I'm going back to school!"
