Recommended Posts

Hahaha....yep, I had the joy after my psych clearance of being able to tell my husband and teenagers, "Ha! I'm NOT crazy....I've been tested!" Phew

Wow you are lucky...I probably spent 20 minutes talking to the doctor but I also had to go through a 600+ questionnaire!

I am not sure why everyone stresses about seeing the physcologist but we do. Then we find out it was no big thing and we worried for nothing.

LOL.....Glad things went well for you!

I was charged $175 and didn't get my money's worth. lol Most of the time I felt like I was the shrink and he was on the couch. He talked about his upcoming knee surgery (the topic was surgery) for 20 minutes and the rehab he'll do for it. lol I didn't really care, he did send the report to my surgeon immediately although they misplaced it and we had to hunt him down during his recuperation to tell the nurse where copies of my report were.

My therapist said that I used all the right verbiage and that I'm so positive!! And after showing pics of my 6 year old who is so adorable by the way she sent me on my way!! But I must credit not just the research I've being doing but even the things I'm learning on here made me well prepared????

Yes...600!!! She sat with me and asked me some questions and then I was taken to a different room where I had to take a 600 question written test. The kind you take in school where you fill in the bubble...lol

I was definitely nervous about my appointment, but I filled out all the paperwork and answered all the questions she asked and it turns out I'm perfectly sane (and mentally prepared for my revision)

All that stressing for nothing!

      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! 😞
