    After 2 hours my psych test and interview are done. Was not bad at all. Well good news, I can tell my husband he was wrong---I am not crazy. lol

  • I had 4 of them... I believe in all of them they wanted to know what I eat, what i do for exercise, what research I've done, how I got fat (I.e have you always been or did it happen after pregnancy..

  • They are pretty basic and just want to make sure you know exactly what is going to happen and that you are mentally all set for it, doing it for the right reasons, ect.

Yep. It definitely asked if I loved my mom and dad like six different times.

I remember that question spevifically because every time I answered it I thought to myself 'did I already answer this?' Lol

True/false questioner with a short interview.

While I haven't had one for wls yet in have had them before. Security clearance, as a preq for a job. It's always pretty basic esp the written exams. In the past I've always met or exceeded the requirements needed ie pass with flying colors. As far as questions go I can't imagine they can be more intrusive than the docs and nut already asked.

I especially liked the several times it asked if I thought someone was "out to get me"!!!

Mine was a basic. He wanted to know if I had full knowledge for the life change that I was about to begin. If I knew the risks and potential complications. if I had help after surgery and if I was I going back to work. He also wanted to make sure I had support and we spoke about my weight history in a questionnaire that he given me. No worries you will be fine:)
