So, this is my first post after a few months of lurking....LOL.
I have always been overweight (except for a year timeframe in high school where I was bullemic) and I am just DONE with it. I have type 2 diabetes and am on so much insulin that now I struggle to lose even 1/2 pound. I always thought...oh...next week I will start eating perfect and working out....then I did...and lost 5 pounds in 2 months of barely eating and working out 1 hour or more a day. So....my mother had bypass surgery when I was younger...yes...genetics at work....and I never wanted to go that route. STUPID considering she was a size 4 and has been for like 30+ years because of her surgery and maintaining those habits.
Now, I have opted for the Sleeve and am in the process of getting all my referrals so that we can submit to insurance. All I have left is a nutrition class and the psych appointment.
Which brings me to my question (sorry for the rambling). What should I expect in this appointment....is there a wrong answer...is there a right one? I really need this surgery and don't want that to be the one thing that stops me.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you
