Psych eval done..woohoo



Recommended Posts

3 weigh ins completed, nutritionist done and now psych eval done. It was super easy and quick. The guy was hard to read though! But he had no concerns for me, and said I was remarkable compared to others he has evaluated. Woohoo!

So, i just need my sleep study (a week and a half from now) and 3 more weigh ins! Getting anxious as it gets to the end.

My surgeon coordinated with my ins to set a psych eval up.

Well, i would call.and tell their office how far you are and see if ins will have anything closer. I had to travel about 45 min (no traffic) one way to my psych eval. If i had to travel 2 hours i would have. Its worth it.

2 more weigh-ins left and sleep study tomorrow! Ahh getting close..

Random FYI: this month i actually lost some weight vs gaining. So scared ins will deny me. Maybe if i can lose a few lbs and be less than the initial weight it wont matter if i gained in between? I had gained weight (3lbs total over 3 months) due to a depo shot, but lost some weight since i stopped getting the injections.

      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.
