I'm establishing with a new doctor. During our first visit he intimidated he'd like to discuss my weight.

Me: Yes, it is still on the heavy side, but I've lost over 50lbs in the last 12 months.

Doctor (looking up a bit worried, asking with concern): Was this rapid weight loss intentional?

Me (I couldn't help but chuckle): Yes! Very intentional! In fact, some days I wish I was more intentional about it. (I tell him what I've been doing, i.e. WOE, exercise, etc.)

Doctor: Well that's great! Keep it up.


I found the interaction highly amusing. I am by no means on the verge of being underweight. I've got 20 more pounds to lose before I'm out of the BMI obese category. And this may possibly be the first time ever anyone has shown concern with my "rapid" weight loss. 🤣😆🤣😆

He was probably more concerned that you had undiagnosed cancer or thyroid problems.

Haha, funny. I went in for a weight and bp check and when the nurse asked me why I came for a drop in, I said I wanted to compare my BP cuff and scale to make sure they were accurate. I also told him I have been walking and counting my calories regularly to lose weight. He said, "Oh you lost 7 lbs in a month. Don't go too crazy with that now." I was like, "WTH, what kind of comment was that???" 🤣😱🤦

Yep, JB, that's what he was worried about.

Buenita, you're almost at your first goal. That's exciting!

You have done great! I got asked that when I was losing weight at my doctor's visit because unintentional weight loss can be a sign of cancer so I think they have to ask!

I like your new doctor. He was probing you to rule out some immediate concerns early.  
20 jun 23 por membro: John10251
RPL and John, yeah, he was definitely making certain I wasn't just losing for an inexplicable reason, for sure!

You are doing awesome. I'm glad your doctor realizes that.

Yeah, Ajbusjahn, that's what I thought. That's why I found it amusing.

That must have been really fun for you!!! I think i would have laughed and laughed. Yes doc, this rapid 1 lb a week weight loss was super intentional!!! You intend to be healthier🤪😂. Holy cow what a great conversation for you to have. Great work

LOL...YoH, right? 😁. Once I went into a bit of the changes I made he was in agreement and approval.

No doubt, Suzelite! That patient was always me. Always the one the needed to have the talk with. It was nice to not.

I am getting a new doc too, ours retired. So this new doc I haven’t met yet, but my hubby has. He’s in good shape, yet she told him to loose 7lbs by the next visit. Now I am terrified to meet her.😬😆😃 Your visit is also scaring me, I want my friend back as a doctor!!!!😳 Keep it up - you’re doing great!👍
