So today I had my psych eval. Prior to going I spent maybe 3 hrs filling out the booklet questionnaire and another 3 page packet of papers . I had to pay $275 as it was not something we could submit their insurance

Anyway I went to the appointment and she never asked for the packet when I asked her about packets and she said she didn't need it ( almost like she was unprepared )

Anyway I have to wait 3 to 4 days for her recommendation did that happen to anyone else? When I have been reading about this it seemed like many of you go your results that same day.

She said a lot of time the recommend more counseling is this going to hold up my surgery

The Dr that did my psych evaluation told me at the end of the session that "all was good" & she would forward report to my surgeon.

Mine was 15-25 minutes. Self pay. Did a little mental exam like what's the date, how to spell something, who was the president. Then was sent home with a personality test 500 questions. And was done, not once asking me anything about over eating.

I had a 3 hr consult. He told me his recommendations right there in his office and sent them to the Bariatrics clinic that night via fax.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
