Initial Dr. Visit Questions

[gabby899 37]

Go to my first Dr. Appointment on July 30th. I have a packet of paperwork to fill out and take with me. Can anyone tell me about the first visit?! I am also. Concerned about my diet history sheet! How on earth am I supposed to remember every diet I've done for the last 3 to 4 years for I am constantly trying to diet with no specific loss!! Any help would be greatly appreciated! I am a mother of 3 and my oldest is 22. I gained 64 lbs with him at the age of 17 and never lost any of it. I am now at my heaviest at 275 and I am done with this crap!! HELP PLEASE

Hi Gabby, I went for my first visit in March. I remember filling out all those forms and feeling the same way you do. My advice is to fill them out as best you can. Nobody can remember every diet and the dates. Especially if your like me and have tried diet after diet. I am currently on my 4th month of my 6 month insurance requirement before surgery. 6 months seemed like forever but I have learned so much information the past 4 months that will benefit me after surgery. I too have been overweight since I was pregnant with my son who is now 15. I had gained 80 pounds and lost and regained ever since. Good luck with your appointment! You are making the first step to a new you!
