So thankful for a chance to get it right. I know I was not to be 250 lbs. I didn't like anything about it. I was 180lbs when I got married 20 years ago. My family is VERY blinded (some his (4) one mine, one ours and (4) of someone else's . So for 20 years I let myself go. But I told myself not in 2013, things are going to change. I am putting myself first for a change. I know when I am happier people around me will be happy. I am 6 days out from surgery and down 12lbs. I have had no pain I went to church today with know problems. I really would like to thank all the staff at the hospital as well as the hotel for all your care. Well done.... God bless you, Peace
