Start the diet -
But appeal. You might be able to fight them based on the fact that your medical records (should) indicate your discussions with the doc and your weight changes over time - and that should really be enough.
ESPECIALLY if you have co-morbidities that are physically damaging over time or potentially life threatening like diabetes, high blood pressure, etc.
While they are making you dick around with yet another diet - you could be causing damage to your body or risking death!
Fight them. The more of us that fight and win, the easier it will be for the next gal or guy that comes along.
Good Luck!!
