Actually, Psychologically boring means that there is nothing wrong with me. I do not have signs of depression or anything else. It is a really good thing! I just like the way it sounds! LOL!

Hi There, I am Cheryl. Well, I have had my first visit with the Surgeon and I have been "Deemed Psychologically Boring" by the Psychologist, which I find totally funny:laugh: I will have my first talk with the nutritionist on Monday then wait for my insurance to okay the procedure. Should be getting my surgery date within the next few weeks. I have chosen the lap band due to the fact that it is less invasive and nothing gets cut off or re plumbed inside of me. I have enjoyed reading all of the threads and blogs. Good luck to every one!

Well, here I go in the newest adventure in weight loss for me! Guess this will be the biggest step I have ever taken but I just can't be chubby any longer. It is really making me feel more and more like staying in the house and not participating in anything social. I alway think the the friends that have known me for a long time look at me and wonder why I have allowed myself to get this over weight. What they do not understand I never allowed it, it just happened. I guess we all can say that! Huh! LOL! Enough pitty! I am on my way back to slender...... I like so many have a DH that feels I should be able to do this with just excerise and diet....been there done that and a lot more.....just does not work for me. So, after we talked about this non invasive procedure of the lap band he understands and is now behind me 100 percent. So is my family! This is a great help in getting over the jitters on is this really the right thing to do! I am rambling........ So this is to document my newest journey with weight loss and I hope my long lasting journey with weight loss! Tuesday Jan. 20, 2009, First Doctors Visit. Nice Dr. and I really liked the girls in the office. Thursday Jan. 22, 2009, I was "Deemed psychologically Boring" by the psychologist! :thumbup: This made me really laugh! Also on this date I looked into my own coverage with Anthem Blue Cross, and they are all for bariatric procedures, this should be good in getting my approval fast. Looks like my portion of the surgery will not be all that much which is good. Next is a talk with the Nutritionist on Monday. I will write about that next week. The Tig signing off for now! C

Hi There, I am an insurance biller in CA and I feel that your Doctors office is handing you a line so that they can get full pop for the surgery! Call your Insurance company and look for another Doc right away! I am going for my first doctors visit on Tuesday and I would guess that all insurance companies would be happy to help pay for this surgery due to the fact that we who are over weight will have more health problems as we get older if we stay over weight.
