Hi Jim! Congrats on your surgery date! I bet you are excited! Just hang in there! I just wanted you to know that I was thinking about you today and that you are in my prayers for a successful, problem-free surgery and recovery. Soon you will be on the other side and will join the ranks of the losers. Wishing you much success in your weight-loss journey. I'm so happy for you. Hugs to you today! I'm from Jersey, too! God bless you, DI
