Thank you all for the reassuring comments.

SuzanneM, that was funny! But actually, I don't want mine back for a while.

Well, the good news in all this is my hubby started this WOE along with me a couple of weeks ago, and today he went by his sister's house to get some stuff, my mother-in-law and another sister-in-law were visiting, and when they saw him, they couldn't believe it! (They hadn't seen him in about four weeks and he's lost 12 pounds since then). No sooner had he left that they were on the phone asking me all about what we are doing. His twin sister even told me he now looks like he did in high school. (He doesn't really, not yet). My husband sure was happy. He didn't even make his usual comments about missing tortillas at dinnertime!
