No, the psychologist shouldn't be the one to say no based on the diets you have tried. He is not a MD. They want to make sure you are mentally stable.

He just rambled off a bunch of diet programs an pills and if I had tried one I just said yes. That was it. Their job is basically to say yes, you are mentally stable and are having the surgery for the right reasons or no you're not. And from there they make a decision to clear you for surgery from a mental health stand point or say surgery isn't the right choice for you at this time.

He had me fill our a paper with tons of questions. It said it was a personality assessment. He asked about my family.. My kids and husband. Asked about health problems, and brief family history. Why I want the surgery. It wasn't bad at all.

Wow! Good luck on the loss! Is there a particular reason he wants you to lose 70 lbs prior to surgery?

I am almost ten months out from my surgery now. The first pic here is me a year ago compared to now. I still have 14 more pounds to goal. Went from about 240 to 154 currently.

You look freakin amazing!!!

Sorry to hear that.. Hope you start feeling better soon. They didn't keep you in the hospital long at all.. Did they?

Sent from my iPhone using VST

No, they said they were down 102 lbs in 9 WEEKS. That is shocking!

I go to Mexicali at least 3x a year and every time I cross with my DL and birth certificate. I've never had any problems.

Where ate you having your surgery, what part of Mexico?

Thanks for the reply! I just want a straight forward answer. If I have to do the 6 months of weigh ins.. Fine, but do I have to or not. I'm sure you know the run around you get with these insurance companies

Hi all.. Im confused and frustrated. I have a primary and a secondary insurance. First I was told that neither required the medically supervised diet, so I thought I was good to go... I thought I'd be having surgery in a couple of months. Now another insurance rep for my primary is saying that I DO need to do a 6 month supervised diet. Does anyone know if I can just use my secondary insurance so I can have surgery soon.

Thanks for the well wishes all
