Lots of cash. Seriously. I made up a list of my diet history--but my docs were familiar with my medical history. couldn't resist making a dumb joke.

Bring Information. Your medications, your allergies, a list of all the types of weight loss programs you have tried, other medical diagnoses you have like diabetes, hypertension. Info on joint , back, or breathing problems. A rough time line of your weight since childhood. Thats what the doc wants from you.
