Topic: RE: Hello New Here-Kaiser Fremont

I had my surgery at Kaiser Fremont, Dr. Chu :)... My psych appointment was a while ago... It lasted about an hour. The therapist I saw, asked me about my mental health history, my eating habits, my triggers, was I preparing myself for life after surgery. She really focused on my triggers and what was my plan on how to deal with them after surgery.

Hope this helps

Topic: RE: Chocolate Cravings. . AAARRRGGG

I usually make a SF mocha to deal with my chocolate cravings - I use "diet" hot chocolate (it has 25 cal per package), a couple tsp of instant coffee, artificial sweetner, and SF peppermint (usually) - just add some water, and it hits the spot for me. I also have SF chocolate syrup i add to my coffee too.

But honestly, I have to stay away, far far away, from chocolate, b/c I don't crave it until it's around me.

Suggestions for how to handle chocolate cravings? I am having them bad today and I let myself finally have one little piece, but wondering what others do to keep the cravings away. Thanks for any input you can offer. Happy Easter Everyone.

Topic: Hello New Here-Kaiser Fremont

I am going to the group meeting on Friday 4/13 and I was wondering about the Psychologist part? I am depressed and I am taking zoloft already. Can you tell me what kind of questions they ask and if I will be approved even if I am taking something for my depression.

Thanks,

That will be my task Monday. I went to Cedar Sinai Seminar Thursday, it was great but I'm still waiting to see if they will accept my insurance I hope so because they were really insightful and reassuring. But if not USC then. Thank you.
