I have had all my appointments except for the follow up with my surgeon and my psych eval!! I am currently away at college so I am waiting till May to have my surgery. The hardest part is waiting for it to come! To anyone who had to have a psych eval what do they ask you?

Also, I am on a liver reduction diet that requires multiple Protein Shakes a day. Does anyone have any favorite recipes that I can try!

The meeting with psychiatrist involves several questions about your reasons for wanting this surgery, your support system, and how you've been feeling. Mine also involved a general questioner with multiple questions and a "yes/no" response key.

The physche eval is no big deal. Mostly they use it to ensure you are ready and to make sure you havent had an eating disorder in the past that has gone untreated.

Honestly when it comes to Protein shakes everyone's taste is different and your tastes could change post op as well.

I have tried many and I really like Premier Protein ready made shakes. There is no grit, no nasty powder smell, they are super easy because there are no blenders or shaker cups to deal with.

I take them with when I travel.

They have a whopping 30 grams of Protein, 1 gram of sugar and 160 calories. The chocolate is the best as it is not overly sweet but they also have vanilla and strawberry cream too,

You can buy them at both costco and Sam's in 18 packs. They are on sale at costco for $5.00 off in January. You can also get smaller packs at some Walgreens and Walmart.< /p>

I agree. Premier Protein is my favorite.
