Hi Katherine, I also received a date but its July 5. I am feeling the same emotions....but mostly excited. I cant wait to start my new life. 11 days though, maybe I would be more crazy than i am now Congratulations, I hope you tell me all about it when you are able.

Oh, thank you! I can't wait to get this started. Yesterday, I was full of nervousness, but today I feel ready and excited. I know I will be fine. I don't even consider death as a possibility, and that's really the only thing to be scared of. Everything else can be worked through. I know it won't be easy at first, but eventually I will become a healthier much thinner person, and I can't wait to meet her.

I remember when you had your surgery, Sharon....YOU LOOK GREAT!!!!!!!! Keep up the GREAT work.!!!!!

OK!!! My date is April 25, 2005. That's 11 DAYS AWAY!!! I'm so completely psyched, I don't know what to do. I'm excited as hell and scared all at the same time. ok ok ok ok. hahah. Sorry, I'm just a tad excited. It still hasn't really even sunk in yet. It's like it wasn't even really real, until just now. Now, I don't know how to handle it all. Words of encouragement anyone?

Warning .........its Racy............FYI!!!!! Lets see how long they will let me keep it up here so folks can laugh and we are off!!! A man was ordered by his doctor to lose 75 lbs as soon as possible due to very serious health risks. As he wondered how in the heck he would ever do it, he ran across an ad in the newspaper for a GUARANTEED WEIGHT LOSS PROGRAM. "Guaranteed. Yeah right!" he thought to himself. But desperate, he calls them > up and subscribes to the 3-day / 10 pound weight loss program. The next day there's a knock at his door, and when he answers, there stands before him a voluptuous, athletic, 19-year-old young lady dressed in nothing but Nike running shoes and a sign round her neck. She introduces herself as a representative of the weight loss company. The sign reads, "If ! you can catch me, you can have me!" Without a second thought he takes off after A few miles later, huffing and puffing, he finally catches her and has his way with her. After they are through and she leaves, he thinks to himself, "I like the way this company does business!" The same girl shows up for the next two days and the same thing happens. On the fourth day, he weighs himself and is delighted to find he has lost 10lb. as promised. He calls the company and orders their 5- day / 20 pound program. The next day there's a knock at the door and there stands the most stunning, beautiful, sexy woman he has ever seen in his life, wearing nothing but Reebok running shoes and a sign around her neck that reads, "If you catch me, you can have me." He's out the door ! or after her like a shot. This girl is in excellent shape and it takes him a while to catch her, but when he does, it is worth every cramp and wheeze. For the next four days, the same routine happens. Much to his delight, on the fifth day, he weighs himself and found he has lost another 20 lbs, as promised. He decides to go for broke and calls the company to order the 7-day 50 pound programme "Are you sure?" asks the representative on the phone. "This is our most rigorous program." "Absolutely," he replies, I haven't felt this good in years." The next day there's a knock at the door and when he opens it he finds a muscular guy standing there wearing nothing but pink running shoes and a sign around his neck that reads, "If I catch you, you're mine."
