Hi all I was unable to find any nutritional counseling in my area. I go May 9th for the counseling at RGH. and May 7th for the psyciatric exam.:eek:Thanks for talking on here it sure helps. Thanks Barbie for the phone number

Hey Judy, Welcome aboard. Dr D at RGH says PC is getting better, can't they figure out that in the long run this is better for us than all the other treatments we have to do for our co-morbidities?? Just relax, lose what they want you to, do what they want you to do and remember the weight didn't come on in a month and the surgery won't happen in a month. Best of luck to you.

Barbie-Can you get me the number for the 'beyond diets' I can not find any program in my area. I have seen Dr D. once and now I am on my way to losing the 20 lbs he says I have to lose. Another tip for your first weigh in at Dr. D's is to drink, drink, drink before you go to your appointment.

Hey Barbie, No, I haven't started "beyond Diets" Where is that? I live quite far from Rochester, and am trying to get into counseling in my area. Did you have sleep appneia(sp)? I have to be tested for it.My Appointment with Dr D is June 25th. Not sure if all this will come together in time.

Thank you for your encouragement. Can't wait to get started.

Had my first consult with the Doctor last week. I didn't realize this would be such a long drawn out process, but I am glad to find this sight to talk to others who have had the procedure. It is fun to see progress in everyone. One day I hope to have some of that progress as well.:biggrin2:

best wishes tomorrow. Hope all goes well for you.

Had my first appt w/Dr D at RGH on March 19th. Has anyone had the Lap band approval through Preferred Care? I can't figure out why they are the only ones that require the nutritional counseling. I have started toward the mandatory 20lb loss that Dr D requires. Now on to the sleep clinic and the psyc eval. Has anyone done the psyc eval yet? What are they looking for? Looking for others to talk to about this process. Thanks.
