Hi. I myself am a sleever. I honestly do not know how I ended up in this part of the forum, but I am glad I did. I could not agree with you more Jean! I am 4 mths out and have lost 79 lbs. So far. And the secret to my success has been just that... measure measure measure! Thank you for the words of encouragement and wisdom, in this journey it is always needed. God bless you
