Hey Steve, sorry to be so late to offer my congratulations! I work in New Providence, and used to work in Summit. We're sorta neighbors! I know another bandster who lives in Summit, too.

Thanks for the words......I couldn't agree more. I go back next monday for first follow up. So far, so good........pain is decreasing and activity is increasing. I refuse to weigh myself other than at the office visits so I have no clue as to progress but after almost two weeks of liquids, I hope I get a decent number on the scale.
