I go to my Psych on Wednesday! I hope I'm in and out as well!!

I thought it was goin to be long cause some said they had to answer qyestions onljne but he basically asked like 20 common sense questions like what are my weight loss goals n how do I think things are going to change ..etc

[ca530 18]

I'm curious to see what he asks me. They told me to plan to be there about an hour. So even that won't be so bad. I'm just glad that his office and the hospital I'm going through are only 10 min. From where I live. I met a few people who traveled over an hour to go to the orientation for this hospital. That's gotta stink to have to drive so far for these appointments and weigh ins.

I have my psych eval tomorrow morning. I hope mine is quick and easy too, although I was told my appointment was for an hour. We will see...

Good luck, I had my eval on Monday.......the woman was wonderful, specializes in pre/post WLS support..........we talked for an hour.....she was lovely, funny, down to earth, and honest....no matter what, be honest with her and your surgeon......because you'll only hurt yourself. We lost our teenager a few years ago, so she touched on that by asking "and how are you doing with that?"

I had been a nervous wreck about this appointment...........we went on vacation and came home the day before the appointment.........which was good for me, because I was too distracted having fun to think about it LOL Good luck, you'll do fine.

I was in and out in 15 min. They made me fill out a lot of information screening for depression an bi-polar. But everything went fine was out in no time!! Good luck ladies!!

I had to go the the hospital twice for my psych. Th first time was to fill out the questionnaire, which was right around 700 questions. Nothing, but it took forever (2 1/2 hours) to fill in all the bubbles. Then I had to go back a few days later (so doctor could review my test results). On my second visit we talked about my test and talked about a lot of different topics pertaining to my life, surgery, and my support system. I was out of there in 30 minutes...
