hehehe...actually I went and bought a few new clothes the other day. The last month of hurting and then surgery was wearing on me and I HAD to get out so I did and got me a couple pairs of size 4!! Still can't believe I can get myself into them size 4s! 
Thank you all so much for your well wishes. Guess it was worth having that gallbladder taken out if that is what was keeping me from goal! *L*
