I have done my group Nutrition appt, my individual Nutrition appt but forgot to bring in my food diary for two days so Nutritionist wants to see me again 
but she is right, I needed to do that and forgot. I think she thought I was not taking it seriously but surely am. Saw the doctor once and will see again next week and saw the Psyche person today. That was an interesting appt., form questions asking about drinking and depression and eating habits, then interview where she asked similar question but sounded ver supportive of what I am doing and I guess she approves since she wished me good luck with the surgery. I am not sure I am going to get my Primary Care doc's support and the Psych said "why not?" and I said she is one who believes if you put your mind to it, you can get thin!! NOT.
So, after my appt I am hoping to get scheduled for surgery but it is going to be like Nov 28 since we are driving from MA to MO and will not return until the 14th and cannot be on liquid diet during that time, too complicated to travel and visit and etc. and no food but protein drink. I guess that is not a real problem, I get to have Thanksgiving but then no Christmas dinner but I am ready to do whatever to get this done and over with and behind me.
I have horrible GERD so am hoping the loss of the weight will help with that, mild asthma, and funny hypertention, up one day down the next. Bad back and feet that are worsened daily by my weight, BMI 38 and new very early DM Adult Onset.
Hope I do as well as many of you, have many questions about how long it is before you are not obscessed by your dietary needs and just do it by rote.
