Good Luck on the surgery! I have never heard of Visalus so I can't give you any feedback on that. I use Centrum multi vitamins. I didn't start using them until after my surgery. I think if I had used them before I had my surgery my blood work would have been better.

I feel ya sister!  I haven't had my surgery yet but will in a couple months.  I am worried about high stress days.  I too eat when I am stressed.  I know I am not truly hungry but it seems so.  I beat myself up about it too.  I have no real advice, just that I completely understand.

Well, if I thought becoming diabetic and being put on a low carb diet was tough, getting prepped for my surgery in July is tougher.  No cokes, coffee and tea must be decaf, etc.  Not to mention I have a load of questions that I can't ask the doctor until I see him closer to the surgery date.  I will ask you guys...What vitamin is the best to use and should I go ahead and start using it?  I like Visalus for a protein shake.  Is that a good one to use?  any other tips would be much appreciated.

Sorry I don't have an answer about the psych eval. I was fortunate enough to not have to have one! I guess they already knew I was nuts!
