I got the email today I have a date!!!:whoo:August 15 at 8 am. I felt my stomach flop and I could hardly breath. So much to do so uch to think about. Oh my gosh my boss is going to be so mad I am taking time off. I suppose she will have to get over it. I can hardly wait to be healthy again.

jpayton congratulations on your date for the band. I imagine you are excitied and nervous at the same time. Your right about your boss he will get over it. This is something that you are doing for you!

Good Luck

LOL!!! I saw your post and was so happy for you!! I thought you meant a social date with someone new! Stupid me.

I realize that so many of us have limited social lives. Either by choice, fear or just social stigma associated with weight. I know I have WAY fewer friends now than I did when I was thin. It makes me sick. But discrimination is a fact. Therefore the reason for my joy......

I avoid social situations as much as possible. I have one tomorrow night, but already feel better knowing what is in my future.

Thanks,

JP

Good for you. You shouldn't have to take more than a week off of work. You'll be back to work in no time. Good luck.
