Mine was really easy- it was only an hour, but were getting buddy/buddy kinda got off topic a lot.

I think its pretty short if your psychologist has done a lot of these evaluations, they know what to look for and can make a determination quickly. If not, they ask you every question in the book.

What they are looking for is that you don't have unreal expectations. Apparently there's a high suicide rate for people that have gone through weight-loss surgery. I haven't gone for my evaluation yet. I'm kinda nervous because at the support group meeting I was crying about never eating Bread or drinking a beer again. I was laughing as I was crying because I knew how crazy I looked.

Best of luck to you!

Thanks..I was thinking maybe it was so short because I already have a therapist I see once a month and I am on medication for anything I have ( anxiety, mood swings, and insomnia)..he is the guy my dr recommends so I can only assume he knows what he's doing..now I just have stress test and heart echo to go and then I have to deal with insurance approval or denial

I had my psyc eval today and it was super easy and seemingly fast too. she just asked me a few questions about my support group in the home, my family history ect. we talked and at the end she scheduled me for my medical clearance date on June 1, by then I will have all my other dr appointments done as well as my other classes I have to take. fingers crossed for a july surgery date if all goes well!

best of luck to you!
