Guest guest Posted December 15, 2001 Report Share Posted December 15, 2001 Elke, Wow! That sounds like some experience! I can only imagine what it was like to be in your shoes at that time.

Guest guest Posted December 17, 2001 Report Share Posted December 17, 2001 Hi Elke and welcome! Nice to hear from an " active reader " (I agree on the " lurker " term - sounds like something you would be doing in a dark alley after midnight, LOL). Keep us posted on your progress and I love your attitude of doing this for yourself, not to fit into a particular size or see a number on the scale. That's the success attitiude! Jen B.
