This is going to sound dopey, but any advice on how not to cry...

Hi, my first appt with the surgeon is coming up this Monday. I am trying to think of anything and everything that I should, like I am sure all of you have also. :) There is one thing that really bugs me. I haven't had an "official" weight reading since December on a digital scale that actually goes over 350, and I am sure I have gained since then. I know this is going to sound stupid, but this last year, because of some medical problems, I have gained so rapidly it is really depressing. So from past expierence of being shocked and horrified I am worried when I get there and step on the scale I will be upset again and just cry or something. Normally I wouldn't really care, but I don't want the doctor to think I am emotionally unstable. Does anyone understand where I am coming from? Any advice, I know I should just prepare myself for the highest number I can imagine but I am afraid when I actually see it... well you know I will get upset. I am really on edge waiting... 2 months to see him and now to see what he says. If anyone would like to email me for any reason PLEASE feel free. I need support and advice. Thanks in advance!!!!
