APPOINTMENTS, APPOINTMENTS, APPOINTMENTS

It feels good to make even the slightest progress in this process! In two weeks time I have attended a group therapy session, attended the required education class, taken psychological exams, met with the psychologist for an evaluation, and met with the surgeon. I was VERY impressed with the group therapy and plan to attend regularly both before and after my surgery. The psychological exams took 3 hours and were exhausting! The psychologist seems to think I am "normal" and will do fine with the surgery. The surgeon and staff at Obesity Solutions are phenomenal! I feel like I could not be in better hands at this point. Now I just have to bide my time doing the insurance required physician monitored dieting and attendiong the group support sessions. I hope time flies!!! I am SOOOOO ready to proceed with this surgery and get healthy!
