I am just outside of DC. My sleeve is January 11th. I'd be happy to share when I'm back home. I also need to find a local doctor for my post-op care, so I may need referrals from you all.

Pray, Speak, Do! ~Meesh~

How are you? Just checking in

Hi everyone I'm from Fairfax, Va. I have to set up a psych evaluation but am nervous about it. Can you tell me what types of questions they ask and how long it takes?

Don't be nervous! They ask some pretty general questions and then give you an online form to fill out. Just answer honestly and you will be ok.

My interview was like a general conversation. We talked about what I've done/am doing to prepare for this life change, what got me to this point, my weight and diet history, eating habits, and my support system. It lasted about 45min-1hr.

Don't be, I actually took a computerized test that asked a trillion questions. But very simple things like I am very happy in my life right now?
