Sarita, sending lots of positive energy, prayers and hugs your way. This is an amazing journey, remember to sip, sip, sip and walk, walk, walk. And, be sure to take your pre-op pictures and measurements, on those slow loss weeks the measurement will show you that even if that evil box on the ground isn't cooperating that you are still doing what you need to do to accomplish good health and have an active, enjoyable, exciting life. Hugs, Dana
