Do you know your triggers for food? What have you tried in the past that didn't work and what did you learn from your failed attempts? Do you have anorexia? Do you have a major mental illness that is not under good control? Do you have a support system? Are you able to follow your surgeon's post-op instructions?

A lot of this can be assessed just by talking to you. Some clinicians use paper and pencil tests and in that case just answer honestly as you should have the chance to discuss the results if something comes out wierd. Really, it's nothing to worry about.

Do you have insurance that covers weight loss surgery? Find out. If so, call your insurance company and find out the qualifying criteria. Then consult with your primary care physician, as they need to write a referral to a surgeon for most insurance plans. Then explore the various surgical options.
