psych eval nightmare

I have finally completed all my pre op appointments and when i went to the psych eval i had to take this 400 question test, pretty strange questions, like do i love my mother? if i were an artist would i like to paint flowers? do i like popular mechanics magazine? ok now worries i answered all truthfully. today i get a call from the psycologist saying she has gotten my results and needs to schedule another appointment with me to discuss some things. Should this be something for me to worry about??? has anyone else had to do this. I knew 5 seconds after i walked into her office that if their was going to be aproblem it would be with her. When i told her why i was their she told me I didnt need lapband, I could lose it on my own. Put the fork down and start exercising. this coming from some skinny thing that has no idea what its like to be fat. Im so frustrated. Should I worry about this????

i disliked the psych eval the worse of all my pre-approval requirements. my psych turned out to be "shady" i only went to him once but he billed my insurance company for several visits, plus collected a co-pay from me! I happened to notice it and told on him! he had to send the $$ back!!! i'll bet your psych just wants you to come in so he/she can charge for another visit!!! as long as you have realistic expectations of the surgery, then you're fine! dont worry ;-)
