One last appt before my surgery is scheduled!

Finished with all my insurance retirements with exception of my 3rd and final visit. Dr Wittgrove's office has been so supportive and we have decided to sleeve me late march early April! I must say seeing the psychologist was irritating. Not sure if it's meant to piss you off or if that particular psychologist was just having an off day. Anyone one have that same type of experience? Either way she passed me and I'm on my way!! A little scared, but really happy to get sleeved!

Starting weight 246 1/12/14

Goal weight 160 !

So happy for you! I had a great time with the psychologist I went to, he was funny and we talked like pals. The only problem I have had so far is with family Dr but hopefully it all works out at my last (for the 2nd time) weigh in on Tuesday. Maybe we will be sleeved around the same time. I wish you the best of luck :D

I have not had my psych visit yet and I hope that I have a positive experience...sorry to hear that....hopefully that one person doesn't spoil your future journey....GOOD LUCK

I'm not going to let the psychologist bother me. I'm still really excited to get sleeved and start my new journey! I'm thankful that my husband is being really supportive as well as my children. They are my biggest supporters!!

I saw my psych today and we had a blast. She is really cool and down to earth. An old hippy chick. Totally passé me with flying colors. My last preop test is my stupid EKG And that's it! I hope to be sleeved late march or early April too!! I am 5'4 and 240.. My goal is 130. :)

Thanks everyone for being so positive and encouraging!! I appreciate it so much and am looking forward to getting sleeved. Looking forward to sharing my journey as well as supporting others in their journey too!

Congrats! I just finished my last step this morning. I had a sleep study done which confirmed I had sleep apnea. Last night I had to do a cpap test. My doctor confirmed I will be scheduled within 2 weeks. Super excited!!

My psych appointment was pretty pointless... She just asked me if I was every suicidal and if I was sure I wanted to do the surgery.. I found the nutritionist and fitness instructor to really help! Good luck!
