I had my psych evaluation on June 26th, I was nervous because I did not know what would come of it. Last week he called me to let me know he cleared me for the gastric bypass surgery. All I have left to do is the nicotine test, which I plan on doing this week. I am excited and nervous all at the same time. Im excited to take the next chapter of my life as becoming healthy. There are many reasons I want to do this; one is to start my own family and not have any major health issues come about. I will update more when I find out a date for surgery.

Congratulations!! Keep your mind focused on what you'll get out of the surgery in the long run. :-)

Way to go! One more hurdle cleared!

Thanks guys ????

Great news at Dayna! I have my psych and pulmonary on 8/5, fingers crossed!

Good luck and thank you!!!

Congratulations! How exciting! I have to admit, the psych eval is the one that troubles me most, because I'm a bit of a quirky personality and either people think I'm crazy or incredibly funny or they hate me from the moment I say hi. I don't know why.....I just elict strong emotions from people! LOL I'm hoping I don't go in there and say something totally assanine and end up getting a referral for my "obvious" mental problems. LOL

Sajijoma...we will get along well.I am "unique"and I love it, but will the psychiatrist love it? Lol ????

Oh my goodness that's how I felt Sajijoma LOL thank you and it actually went better than I expected I did however get a referral for an A.D.D. evaluation haha I'm like that too you either like me from the get go or not

Congrats @Dayna Rae you got this! Your going to do great! I'm right behind you in the process

Awww thanks and congrats to you as well I'm very driven at this point to do this

OMG ADD LOL yeah that would totally be something that would happen to me. I took my daughter for her Autism eval once and they asked me if I knew I had Aspergers. I was like,uh no I don't. LOL

Very cool. Another hurdle cleared !!!

My little sister had bypass surgery in her early 20's.

She went on to great, great things.......dating, marriage, two awesome kids and she's been fit and lean ever since her surgery results....some 15 years ago. Amazing success story that gives me great confidence as I follow her lead.

Best wishes for you.
