Wouldnt weight loss surgery help with your anxiety and overall mental health though?
My pdoc had no issue with me getting my surgries because he knew it would help my mental health in the long term. He's actually being a bit too pushy about me getting a 4th surgery done. __________________ Ridin' with Biden |

They are pretty particular about mental health readiness for weight loss surgeries because the success of the outcome is so dependent on it.

Well I was having a hard day, plus I really want to do it myself vs surgery. But I know myself and I have no willpower. Both my parents had will power. I don't know why I don't. But honestly the will power to eat perfectly and diet my whole life isn't with me.

My actual psychiatrist says that guy is a quack there is no cure for mental illness and he's comment eludes to a cure. He suggests I go to a different surgery center. I'm thinking.

Hey @Aviza I hope you realize that a large percentage of people with weight loss problems do not have an issue with willpower don’t you? My personal opinion is you need to see an endocrinologist especially if your surgery is halted. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk __________________ "I carried a watermelon?"
