Sonnet, you're too much! lol :D Of course we'll still love you and be
here for you!! That's what this board is all about! If it weren't for
you and the others like Paula, bluebonnet, etc., I'd be stuck in a rut
and NEVER begun medications for my PCOS--and I wouldn't know what to
look for or discuss either!! Good luck in the study, gain as MUCH weight
as you want (be healthy though) and ENJOY life. We'll still be here for
ya---that is, if you can still fit your butt in front of the computer
and have room to type. ;) (lol, just a joke!)
