Hello Beth;
I suppose it is good evening right about now.  I worked today till 4, then home.  Tomorrow I'm working from home have a 10am teeth cleaning.  No sense in driving to work that late.  Dee's camp sounds like lots of fun, my co-workers daughter loves her gymnastic camp. 

Dealing with wedding stuff, lots of drama, I don't feel safe going into it here, I'll PM you when I get my thoughts together about it. 

Hope you all had a great day...

Ida

Topic: RE: Psych Eval coming up
DG

I agree that you should just answer the questions and don't offer any other information.  This Psych eval is only an insurance step.  You will be in and out.  I work in the BH field and used that as the tone of my interview. 

Just to let you know, you are so ready of this surgery, you will see the real you come out.  I have been on anti-depressent since I have been a very young girl.  I don't want to go into where my head was when I went to mine but it is a formality.  Treat it like a job interview that you know that you are going to get. 

Best of luck to you.  Can't wait to see you on the loser's bench.

 They are mostly going to ask you general questions. They will ask you if you feel psychologically ready for the life change. I would agree to not discuss your problems, this is purely to see if you are ready for this...

Hope that helps

Good luck!

Laureen.

     What can I say to my biggest cheer leader.  Thank you for being there for me this past year and encouraging me when I was down.  Your support has been a life line to me many times.  Hope that you enjoy your time down in Florida.  Take care.

Beth,

     I know that you understand what I am going through.  I am not certified in Jersey so I don't think that I can even apply for any positions.  I am going to try to get to July's 1st Saturday.  I did get to this past Wed. support group.  In reading over my journal yesterday I realized that I didn't even acknowledge my 2nd surgiversary last year.  At least I am better this year.  Today is a better day for me and I need to stop being paralyzed.  This week has a lot of good activity in it for me so I won't have as much time to dwell on the negativity.  Thank you for your support.

Trish,

     Thank you for your good wishes.  Good luck on your sinus surgery today.  I also have had more good days than bad since WLS.  Yesterday was just a low one for me and I decided that I need to stop being paralyzed and start doing something - anything - so that I don't get stuck.  Luckily this week is pretty full with positive activity for me.  Just for today I will try to be as positive as possible.

Topic: Psych Eval coming up
 My psych eval is this Friday.  I HATE shrinks..  I am afraid of getting a yellow or red light..

I know I will start talking about a lot of issues from being abuse as a kid, abused by my first hubby, and other things....  I don't want to talk about that stuff....  I just wanna talk about me with the surgery and my progress.....   BUT being on depression pills.... they will ask, right??  

I has asked my oldest daughter IF she could see a difference since I started losing weight.  I have noticed some differences, like my face is a bit thinner and in the hips....    SO I wanted to check to see IF she noticed it to... but I didn't tell her what I thought till after she said I looked thinner in the hips area.  She is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO  proud of me in my quest.

 GM to you too, I think.   WoW, those thunderstorms lastnight...  They do NOT normally wake me up, but man, these did....  then my right hand fell asleep on me during the night....

I haven't been on much.  screen broke to my laptop and I have a monitor for viewing and it takes up 1/3 of the kitchen table.  Sitting on the kitchen chairs is a killer on my back and my knee.  

Babysitting 5 yr old grandson.  Him and the 8 yr old granddaughter are fighting already...

My 5 yr old granddaughter is in visiting from Ohio till the end of July.  The time is going way too fast.  I have to take her home and I am not looking forward to the trip to do so.  

I stepped on the scales,  been losing weight again.  My knee is still giving me problems...
