I made my consult apt

[eyezchu22 6]

Hi, :smile2:I am a single Mom who has always been "pleasantly plump" after the birth of my daughter instead of losing the pregnancy weight I added to it:blushing: I tried lots of diets and a personal trainer, Not getting much results I had reached my limit and figured like the rest of my family I would always be big. A co-worker recently had the band and has lost 40lbs in 3 and 1/2 months. I started doing research and called my insurance provider. As soon as I found out my insurance covered bariatric procedures:thumbup:, I made the necessary appointments. I have to meet with a psychologist and nutritionist, Can anybody give me some feedback on what to expect at these visits?

hi there, i just had my phsyc eval earlier this week. it was sooo easy she just asked me normal questions, do i smoke, where i grew up, how many siblings i had, if i was married if so how long, number oof children. that was it i was in and out within 1 hour. I did not have to have a nutrionist for my insurance.

Hello

I amin Australia and don't have to have a psych consult, but my dietician's appointment is on 13th June. I am not too stressed about it, lord knows I've seen dieticians many times before.

So I guess I'm not much help, but just wanted to say welcome, congratulations and best of luck!

At the psych eval they just want to get to know you a bit. They might give you a personality test and ask you questions to make sure you are sound of mind. At the dietician they will show you the way you should eat after surgery. They will probably also have you start preparing things like what kind of Protein Drink you will use. Both appointments are pretty simple , nothing drastic. Congrats on this journey and please keep us updated.
