Psycho eval today!!!



Recommended Posts

I have my psycho eval today. I will let everyone know how it went and what they did since so many people (including myself) are always asking what the do. I'm exited to be one step closer to my band!

NSV most looking forward too today - getting out of the shower and being able to wrap a NORMAL size towel around my body without one boob and 1/2 my tummy hanging out!

Ok, I had the phsycho eval and you all (like my husband) must be wondering how I can type with the straight jacket on!

Well, it was simple. The lady in my honest opinion needs physco care herself! She was sweet though. She had me take a t/f test with som ?'s thrown in to make sure you were really reading it - like "My face has been on the ocver of several magazines this month." True or false.

Then I filled out some paper work about my diet and exersize routine. She asked me a few ?'s like what I do, how's my marriage, etc. but nothing I thought was abnormal.

She said all of her bandster patients are doing great! I can't wait to be one too!!!!!

I had my psycho eval Monday. It wasn't that bad but I could really tell he was trying to psych me out a couple of times. I even had my nutrition evaluation on Monday too. Have you had that yet? I go to my dr on September 20th and just hoping for insurance approval. Had a woman tell me today that the insurances are getting where they won't pay for this anymore and kind of knocked me back into depression. How was your eval?

      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.
