The thing that I am dreading is I'm an LVN so I'm pretty much on my feet all day so I hope I have a quick recovery too! Thanks for posting your new diet regime, it gives me an insight on how long it will take for me in my transition, even though I know everyone is different it is still interesting to me to hear another persons perspective and their journey :)stef & edhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11263837794687390789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2727350403242017211.post-18223324300532799222012-06-29T23:04:06.459-05:002012-06-29T23:04:06.459-05:00I'm crossing my fingers for you!

I think two weeks is a good start to take, just in case there are some complications.Ashlee .https://www.blogger.com/profile/12138597621739302351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2727350403242017211.post-73106980804739264452012-06-29T22:35:38.424-05:002012-06-29T22:35:38.424-05:00Awesome, San Diego is always fun!
