Default The Journey Begins

Hi everyone-
I met with the bariatric surgeon yesterday. He was very detailed in explaining the process and answering my questions. I may be looking at 3-6 months before getting to surgery (I hope it's three). Anyway, the journey begins- meeting with the psychologist and nurse practioner next week. I'm really excited, anxious and a little scared. Thanks to all of you, this forum a great way for someone to work-out this process.
