Patient: you know consider trying to make <1:13:44 PM> Jordan Prox - Patient: better changes <1:13:47 PM> Ben - Doctor: and um <1:13:50 PM> Ben - Doctor: who's you know weight stays in the same percentile what do you what do you think that'll look like going forward <1:13:50 PM> Jordan Prox - Patient: I mean obviously I think it would have you know affect his health you know pretty dramatically like I mean I know we've had issues with <1:14:06 PM> Jordan Prox - Patient: heart disease and cholesterol in the family so and diabetes and I know weights a big part of that that component so <1:14:13 PM> Ben - Doctor: yeah it sounds like you are concerned about his health and kind of how that will affect you know the rest of his life <1:14:15 PM> Jordan Prox - Patient: you want to try to steer them in the right right direction sooner rather than later <1:14:28 PM> Ben - Doctor: you know <1:14:28 PM> Jordan Prox - Patient: yeah probably not you know the best role model for that <1:14:32 PM> Ben - Doctor: how do you think you know the dietary habits that you have in within the family and kind of around him how does that compare to like what he's what he's easy then <1:14:48 PM> Ben -

Doctor: he kind of <1:15:19 PM> Jordan Prox - Patient: mm-hmm <1:15:28 PM> Ben - Doctor: takes looks after you as a room role model so <1:15:33 PM> Ben - Doctor: I think <1:15:33 PM> Jordan Prox - Patient: I mean <1:15:33 PM> Jordan Prox - Patient: mm-hmm well yeah just for my my own diet <1:15:35 PM> Ben - Doctor: um think about you know improving your diet as well maybe that could help on a scale of zero to ten where do you think you are <1:15:44 PM> Ben -
