Not necessarily. "Bad at programming" can mean a variety of things.
If it means you have a hard time writing a step-by-step procedure for solving a problem or performing a task, then you may want to be careful what sort of Physics or Engineering field you go into. If it means you don't fathom the intricacies of Microsoft's operating system or programming tools and the way they work, welcome to the (very large) club.
Engineering and Physics are fields that tend to have a very practical orientation. Mathematics is a field that tends to work with ideal or simplified models. Programming tends to deal with all of the messiness of the real world, as Engineering and Physics do. If you can't get your head around the fact that often the models don't explain everything, then Engineering or Physics may not be a good match for your talent.
