Congrats Cheryl!!
It is so good to hear a happy story every once in awhile too! Eat a slice of pizza and drink a beer for me.
Hang in there Juney! One of the traps I keep falling into is measuring progress on a day by day basis, not a week by week. Keeping a journal will help you see the positive changes more clearly.

oooh well todays the big day!!!!!! 1 year ago today i was a trembling mess... and today i am the happiest girl alive!!! yipeeee!

Way to go Cheryl!!! Join the club.
Hang in there guys as we know it seems incredible now to you that you too will some day be...."The master of your bowels" again.
Keep repeating...."Forttude"
