I meet with a Behavioralist on Wednesday.. Kinda getting anxious/nervous. What should I expect? And what are things I should/shouldn't say?? Some times when i talk i over think and end up putting my foot in my mouth... Especially when I'm nervous!!

Just try being yourself. That is always the best answer.

I am so the same way. I was scared about meeting with her too. She only talks to your for a few minutes. She will ask you things like do you feel you will comit suicide if you have this done. Do you want to harm other if this is done. How will you deal with you addiction when you can not fill it with food anymore.

It is really easy. Don't worry.

Ok. That's good to know. I just found out that my babysitter has fallen through and I can't find anyone else to watch my 1 year old. Does anyone think it would be a horrible impression to drive my 1 year old into the appointment with me in his stroller? He's usually well behaved and I bring tons if things for him to play with when he has to accompany me to regular appointments. I just don't want the dr to think I'm crazy for bringing a baby. I literally have no one this short of notice

Just be truthful.....if you aren't honest with him/her, than you are only hurting yourself.

We had a conversation, and that was it....she was looking for addictive tendencies, possible depression, mental illness, eating disorders, things like that....

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
