therapy before approve
I did not, but i wish i did! In my opinion preop you should have to go through extensive counseling to understand the big picture. I wasn't really prepared for what was coming at 2 or 3 years out. We aren't taught about our tool and what to expect after the honeymoon period. When you get to a few years out it's very very easy to gain your weight back, it takes a lot of work and dedication. It is only a tool, and if you don't make it a lifestyle change it isn't going to work.

Not before, besides just the eval. But I have signed on to therapy since surgery and i go every 2 weeks. I honestly love it, my therapist had surgery and it gives me a chance to talk face to face with someone that understands.
