Hey Deb:

Congratulations on going back to school. Remember, protien, fluids, fiber and vitamins. Gosh know's you'll probably be exhausted the first week. Good luck with that.

Take care.

Sharon

Deb.. I'm a bit worried. Are you ready to handle it if the scale on Monday shows little or no loss for this week?

I am not saying it will happen, but I am trying to get it into my own head that I need to be prepared for that inevitability.
