Pass on the psych eval!!!
Sep 20, 2009
Well I guess everything was a go for my eval. He didn't make me take the written test he talked about over the phone. His main concerns were that I would know where to go to get support and know the statistics of WLS failures and so forth. I guess he will be sending my Dr a letter this week. Now it is just getting Tricare to approve it.

Waiting waiting waiting......
Sep 15, 2009
I just hate to wait for anything. I go for my psych apt tomorrow. We will see how that goes. I am nervous that the Psychologist is not going to be pro wls. What if I say the wrong thing? I also rescheduled my weigh in apt for next Tues. That is all that is new with me!

1st apt w/ Dr. Monash
Sep 03, 2009
Well today was the day I was supposed to eat eat and eat, didn't work out as well as I hoped. At my weigh in I was a 40.7 BMI. I was happy but with Tricare they like to see my weight as 200 percent of my ideal weight. After talking around I found I am 4 lbs from that. That is not bad I guess I could eat a few more unhealthy things.

Spoke with psychologist today and made an apt. Thursday is my evaluation with Dr. Monash. I feel like showing up with ankle weights on just to make my BMI of 40. Not fair that I am so close and just not there.

Weight Loss Seminar
Aug 25, 2009
Tuesday August 26, 2009
Well today I went to my first seminar and really liked the Doctor. I was refereed to Dr Schwartz by my PCM but now I think I am going to see Dr. Monash. He really took his time to explain everything with us and I really enjoyed talking with his office manager. I will be calling to schedule a evaluation with Dr. Monash! I just pray I will be approved by Tricare. My BMI is a 38 but I will see if maybe they figured it out wrong at my PCM.
