I am so nervous and excited all at once! I pray I have the strength and will power that I need to be successful! Is anyone else doing surgery on this date?

Had my follow up today regarding the phych dr. i had to take that computer test-300 and some questiions- well he told me that I scored like a 99 and they like to see you in a range of around 50 -so he continues to tell me that my personality doesn't match the test- (WTH) So he wants me to see his partner and see what he thinks- I am just lost-has anyone ever had this happen to them- He kept saying that getting the lap band is so much more mental- I tried to tell him I used to be very thin and built- not used to this weight- I guess if I was never thin it would be diff for me- but I have been there before so I don't get what he meant my MENTAL
