Hello! My name is Heather and I am in the process of getting lapband. The weightloss place called me today and I have to go for my eval's on Wed the 18th. Exactly what goes on @ these evals?

They just ask you questions about eating habits and history, typically your feelings about your weight, psych. history (depression, anxiety, etc). It is best just to be honest about it all.

In my psych eval, i was really honest, I cried about things that I haven't thought about in years and told him that i am still struggling with this decision. He cleared me anyway.

the nutritionist just gave me a list of things i will have to eat 2 weeks before, and 20 days afterward. in both of these cases, i think they cleared me as soon as my check cleared the bank. it actually seemed like more of a formality than anything. she did ask me some questions about what i was currently eating, but made no attempt to say 'that's not what you should be eating" or "you'll have to make better choices". she simply gave me the list, wished me luck and signed off on everything.

i think they all just want their $$$
