What is wrong with this lady????
Feb 05, 2010
Hey Ya'll, It's great to finally be a member of obesityhelp!!Well, I've been trying to get weight loss surgery since July 2009. Everything was going great, I had all my tests done by October- except for ONE - The Psyche Evaluation. Well, if I would have known then, what I know now - I would never have told the Psychologist anything about my past. I would have gone in there with a happy face and told her that my upbringing had been perfect - just so she would sign off on it. Well, needless to say, after my first appointment, she said that she felt that I was depressed - "yeah, I weigh 237lbs" - if that's not something to be depressed about, then I don't know.....Anyway, she recommended 6 months of Therapy. Okay, I did that - I complied. I went back to see her, and she told me that she wanted a letter from my doctor, giving it the go ahead. I did that.....Well, that wasn't good enough. She called me and told me that she felt like I hadn't started to heal - so, she didn't think that it was a good time to have the surgery done. I was upset, I went to my therapist (psychiatrist) and he called her and talked to her. He said that if she still wouldn't recommend that I have the weight loss surgery, then he was going to talk to the surgeon. My therapist said that he was pretty forcefull when approaching her about the subject. She has finally agreed to sign off on it in April - YA'LL, please pray for me that she signs off on it, like she said that she would.
I currently weigh 235lbs......I would like to weigh 125lbs......I am 5'4.
*** I hope to have the surgery done by at least June 2010 - I will keep you posted......
