Well, I went in for my psych eval today. I've been through counseling before, after my 1st husband died from cancer I had a really rough time, so it's not like counseling is new to me, but for some reason I was really nervous about it. Maybe because she's the head of the psych department at the Weight Loss Surgery section of the hospital where I'm having it done? I don't know. Anyway, it went really well. She said that in most patients she sees something that she talks with them about regarding her concerns for them, but for me she had no concerns, said she was very impressed I had stopped drinking diet colas, lost 19 pounds in the last month/50 pounds in the last 5 months, and had started an exercise program and kept it up since May. She said she would definitely give me a glowing report and that I did not need to see her again. Yay!

Next up: Nutritionist appointment on Thursday, 10/9/2008.
