Psychological evaluation



Recommended Posts

So I had my evaluation this morning! I was open and honest. The interviewer said he would recommend me but he doesn't have the final say. It will go to a supervisor and I will know within a week or 2 what their recommendation will be! I will be on pins and needles the entire time I think!!!!

@@KGee88 the only thing that has got me worried is he asked about suicidal thoughts. I didn't want to lie so I told him yes but it had been years since it even crossed my mind. Then he asked about did I make a plan & I told no I didn't make a plan.

To be honest if I truly wanted to go that route I wouldn't be trying to get WLS! I have the means but I got too much to live for. Too many goals not to mention grandbabies!

I think you will be OK. It seemed (to me at least) that they wanted to make sure you were making an informed decision and that you were ready for the ups and downs.

I know I surprised my doc when he came back with my eval.

He went over everything and asked me what I thought. I told him it was pretty spot on (I think he was expecting some push back, lol).

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
