The time has come

So I finally received my surgery date, August 1!!! I’m super excited , this journey has certainly been eye opening . Initially when I started the Kaiser 24 week program , I wasn’t excited about going to the required classes , but once I started and realized that this journey is not only about food, it’s about why I chose certain foods, why food was so powerful it could change my mood, why did I need food to change what I was feeling and at last realizingvthat excercise was key in managing my depression . I now know if I was told that I could have had wls within the first few weeks of my initial evaluation , I would have not succeeded. I am now mindful of triggers, and moods that make me want to eat and i have tools that help me change that mindset and I am so grateful, I feel like I now have the tools I need to be successful. Just wondering does anyone else have a August date, anyone’s journey similar to mine , please respond to my post , would love to hear your stories

smooches ?
