I was told my True Results my Psychological Evaluation would take 2 hours. Are they really that long? What all do they ask? Just wondering...

My eval took about an hour. I had to fill out a questionaire with no less than 200 random questions. I think the actual test was to see if I would finish or give up. I think it was a waste of time and I had to pay out of pocket.

I have 2 psych appointments which each appointment is approximately 1 hour each. I was thinking the same thing. I have one next week and another in the following week.

Mine took about 30 minutes. I was asked a bunch of questions. Then I filled out a 25 question form and that was followed up with some additional questions and then he printed my letter and I was out of there. They noted that if the 25 question form did score right that I'd have to do a much longer one. I was given a list of about 20 people that could do the evaluation, but they noted one took my insurance and that was who I went to, so I paid a $30copay.

Mine was several hours, because there were several hundred questions. Then I had a 20 minute interview with the psychologist. Mainly I was asked questions about how I looked at life, was I prepared for the changes I'd need to make and if I had realistic expectations of how much weight I could expect to lose.

I had a $60 copay, 344 questionnaire, a few other forms and about 10-15 minute visit with the doctor. I did all of this in about an hour. You should be going to the same place I did on Fannin Street in Houston. Remember to ask for a Saturday appointment and good luck.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
