Hopeful tomorrow

Hi,  I am in the beginning of my wl journey.  I have tried several different diets as well as counseling for BED.  I think the counseling will help with my journey as I know that the surgery is a tool and the rest is mindset.  I'm hoping that my surgery will be this year.  I'm hoping to be able to move with less pain and to be able to enjoy life. The hard part is waiting for appointments to get started.  I haven't even met w/my dietician yet-next week.  I have met with pre op physician and weight management psychiatrist who have both cleared me for surgery.   My weight management psychiatrist is who told me about BariatricPal.  I hope to gain insight on ways to handle things that pop up on this journey that I wasn't expecting.
