Well I will have the start of a new me on June 20th. Dr. Monson at MeritCare in Fargo, ND. I started the whole process on Jan. 22, 2007 and thought 6/20/07 seemed so far away. Now it is here and I still can't believe it. The only ones that know are the hubby, 3 kids, and sister. I have had enough slaps in the face with other failed weight loss attempts and felt I could not face the comments, looks, etc. from others if they knew. I have been so busy with everyday life to worry or even think about it until now...I find myself scared, nervous and excited. Please keep your fingers crossed for me and say a prayer for my family and myself...

"I am jumping in with both feet and eyes wide open".....

I will have my surgery june 20th too. I know how you feel. I will pray for you. I wish you good luck and i ask you to pray for me. My pastor is coming to my surgery and pray there for me. By this time next year we will be in a lot smaller size of clothes and feel better in mind and body. I wish you the best in your new life.

Fingers and toes crossed for you!!! Would cross my legs too but I can't - will my ankles work ??? Positive thoughts and prayers are being sent your way from SD!!
