weighing at the doctor
hi
when someone goes to the doctor for a check up, do they weigh you with or without your shoes? its been over a yr since i went+i cant remember but am going this week.
thanks!
Generally, they can do it with either. If you ask to remove your shoes beforehand I doubt your doc will have a problem with it.
eek, thanks, im actually hoping its w shoes so im at a healthy weight w the shoes, not w/o and dont that il be abel to gain that much in a couple days.
1st time in a while im hoping to weigh more.
its not an ED doctor, just a regular doctor for an exam for a job.
the last time they weighed me at the doctor they had me take off shoes first
Yeah it's pretty much your choice. If you take your shoes off I'm pretty sure they are not going to tell you to put them back on before weighing. lol I always take mine off, even if it's just flip flops. :)
If your going to the doctors because of your weight, I'm pretty sure he/she will ask you to take your shoes off. If it is just general they may not, unless you're wearing Doc Martins or something!
so im not going bc of my weight altho i am in recovery from Anorexia, this is a completely unrelated check-up exam. rt now im borderline, my ultimate weight goal is to have a bmi of at least 22 for true health, but to pass the exam i want to at least be technically healthy, so i just hope i can keep my shoes on for this exam at least!!
