They want to figure out if you will be successful after surgery, have a support system to support your decision, and if you use food emotionally to fill a void.

    Just had mine.

    About a half hour of face to face talk.

    Aside from the generic, get to know you type stuff some of the questions were:

    Why do you think you gained the weight?

    What do you hope to get out of surgery?

    What changes are you prepared to make before/ after surgery?

    What support do you have?

    Any past trauma?

    Any past/ present mental health issues?

    What are your present/ future coping strategies?

    What do you envision yourself doing after you lose the weight that you don't do now?
