The psych eval is the easy part! I was all worried when I went but soon realized I was stressing over nothing! Though to be fair I did really dislike my psych as he kept stressing how I could die from surgery, haha. I could have also died driving to see him. :P

OMG, I cant believe he would say that, what a butthead. My lady was really nice. She said I passed :) Now only a week till my appt with the doc. How did you handle the waiting. Ive decided i am a very impatient person. :)

Psych eval was easy peezie....nothing to stress about. She just pretty much talked to me about noticing the signs of depression and how I would deal with depression. She did ask me if I heard voices, which I thought was funny. I asked her if having conversations with myself counted....she laughed. Nothing to worry about unless you tell her that you talk to invisable clowns, and they tell you to do bad things, you'll be fine. She told me while in her office that she was going to approve me for surgery so there was no waiting and wondering. Good luck and don't worry.

Best of luck to you!! Yes it was easy. I was asked a lot of questions and had to take a multiple choice test that was over 160 questions. It went pretty fast though.

Elizabeth,

I see you just had surgery 2-days ago and wanted to see how you made out? Very excited for you, must be a huge relief to have it done.

My phych eval was probably the easiest thing I did. Good luck!!! It's pretty simple just be honest.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
