Maybe I should not say that I am down about 160 pounds. That is without exercising so hopefully once I am cleared to do so, I can drop some more.

Hopefully. With her apparent promotion at work she has quite a bit of schooling to do. One of f the classes that she needs is a week long in July. Others are a day here and there that she should be able to take.

Yeah it should. Her pain level has been getting worse and she was talking with or doc today and pretty much told him that it needs to be taken care of by mid April. He said that he would make sure that it happens by then.
