Guest guest Posted July 2, 2005 Report Share Posted July 2, 2005 Barbara, You can call them and let them know but you are in a cycle for your appts. I don't know if they will fast track you or not. I was at my 10% goal on June 17th during my marathon appt., but I still didnt get my next appt any quicker, it is in August. Ugghhhh Kristie Fremont lost 10% August 11 last pysch appt. > > > Date: 2005/07/02 Sat PM 02:15:20 PDT > To: gastric-bypass-support-kaiser-patients > Subject: Re: Re: Hello!

Guest guest Posted July 3, 2005 Report Share Posted July 3, 2005 Then what I would do is call, tell them you think you are at goal (goal weight isn't actually set until you see your surgeon). Ask to get your psych appointment scheduled. That way when you get to your appointment with your surgeon, that will be done, and hopefully you can be scheduled that day.

Guest guest Posted July 3, 2005 Report Share Posted July 3, 2005 Thanks Kristie. Sounds like appt run every 2 months. I guess I have been overweight for 46 yrs a few months should go by fast. Nooootttt.Its seems like its getting harder to loose the weight its diffenetly taking alot longer. Had a barbaque today and think I did pretty good.during the week is so much easier.Thanks for your input. I think I'll go ahead and call them and let them know,it can't hurt.
