Whether or not you're overweight, when you come in they'll take your vitals and run some standard tests until they find something they can treat and medicate for the rest of your life.
You'll be tested for thyroid dysfunction, for diabetes, for hypertension, for all sorts of stuff that won't be on your radar until a blood test turns up "abnormal" results once. Then you'll get pills, all the pills you care to eat and remember, there is no road map for getting off those pills, you'll just get larger doses and more frequent as your problems worsen (because you're not addressing root causes, just being medicated for "treatable" issues which correspond to existing pharmaceuticals.)
