I can not read and research anymore.  LOL I have finally made the decision on the sleeve -  Hopefully I will get a surgery date this week.

I got a copy of my psych evaluation yesterday afternoon.  Geez.,  talk about summing up your life, and stress triggers on a three page report - it was pretty eye opening.  I did however,  put a lot of effort into the questionnare the psycologist sent to fill out before I saw her,  and was very honest.  She summed up the things that can really help me succed and one is continued therapy for the stress and emotional eating, so I am commited to that for the long haul.

Hope to get scheduled for the week of the August 20th  and I think it is doable as long as my blood work comes back okay-  which I feel sure it will.

I am ready to join that losers bench!

Glad you came to a descision...that is probably the hardest part...figuring out which one is best for you.

You'll do great, Angela.
