So I called and scheduled my psych evaluation the same day as my 4 hour "class" with the nutritionist and I was shocked to find out the psych would take 3 hours!! Apparently there's even a written test???

Oh goodness! I didn't get told a time for my classes or appointments, but they did want to do everything in 1 day. That day is February 17! I thought me having to wait 2 months for surgery was going to be torture.. how are you dealing with the wait??

Well, by the time I get everything done and have my physician monitored weight loss appts as required by insurance, it'll be 6 months that I've had to wait. So I'm just muddling along with all my other stuff. Shooting for a summer surgery date!

I have to see my pcp Monday to start my 6 mo supervised again because, even though I had it done, it has to be consecutive months and mine wasn't. I'm also scheduled for a sleep study on Feb 3.

I'm considering have my tires balanced and rotated while I'm at it LOL

Well, I'm done with my 6 months doctor approved whatever. I was just approved a few days ago for the surgery but I still have all these appointments to go to before we can schedule surgery. The date I want is tentative. :)

The test at the psych eval for me at least was a personality test that was a bajillion questions. Just a heads up maybe it's the same thing for you!

This is how mine was too and was only allowed like 2 hours to finish everything. Then I talked with the psychiatrist, well the intern, for an hour.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
