I just did mine. Written part is truly common sense. In the discussion portion, they are looking for several things: how realistic are your expectations, what does your support system look like, how committed are you to the vast changes needed to be successful with diet and exercise. I'd never seen a Psych Doc or been in Therapy, so I was nervous too, but it was really fine.

Waiting for the results of my psych eval. Get them tomorrow morning along with my consult. This is the last step for me in order to be approved for my vertical sleeve gastrectomy. I am nervous abot getting the results. I have problems with depression and anxiety anyway, so I see a therapist twice a week. She will continue to be part of my support team. I was very honest when I took the test. I thought the psychologist and surgeon deserved to truly know the real me. I want this surgery badly for so many reasons. Wish me luck.

I have depression and anxiety, and I was worried that that might negatively impact me, too. But the psychologist just encouraged me to monitor my anxiety and to come see her if at any point I started to feel like it was too much, and she said I was good to go. Got my surgery last Thursday. :) So I know you will be fine! Sending you good vibes. Best of luck!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
