Awww, thanks guys! You are the best.
Dana, I know I have a few "before" pics that I will have to post tonight (when dh gets home because I can't figure out the scanner

) , but no "current" pics yet. But I already called dh at work & told him he has to take one of me tonight. I will post it as soon as I get them developed.
Sundrop, thanks
Laura, I carried in a 40 pound bag of dog food last weekend & I was amazed that I used to carry that around plus a little more all the time!
Thanks again guys! You are all a great support group & I am so happy to have found this site!
