So I had my evaluation today. It was full of answering questions , tons of questions and them scoring me. Then she told me that she has make a recommendation and I may need to seek more sessions. I'm like look lady I don't need anybody to hold me up. And I don't have that kind of copAy money. I will wait to hear the results this week. I told her I don't want anything to hold me up! Anyone had this happen? I'm with True Results

Good luck! Two things will really affect pysch evaluations Depression, and giving the impression that you are doing the procedure because you want to do it for someone else besides YOURSELF!

Just remember, you are always doing this for yourself, and not to impress anyone else!

Best of luck to you! The psych evals and dietitian visits are always downers!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
