Angela, here is a poem I found for you.  It is called Don't Quit.  I hope it brings you some strength!

    When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
                             When the road you're trudging seems all up hill,
                              When the funds are low, and the debts are high,
                              And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
                              When care is pressing you down a bit,
                              Rest if you must, but don't you quit.

                              Life is queer with its twists and turns,
                              As everyone of us sometimes learns,
                              And many a failure turns about,
                              when he might have won had he stuck it out.
                              Don't give up though the pace seems slow.
                              You may succeed with another blow

                              Success is failure turned inside out,
                              The silver tint of the clouds no doubt,
                              And you never can tell how close you are,
                              It may be near when it seems so far,
                              So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit,
                              It's when things seem worse,
                              that you must not quit.

Thank you so much....it made me cry.  I am struggling so bad today, I am going through major detox and am so edgy I could scream.  I am only 16 days from surgery and really canèt screw this up so I am trying so hard today not to eat anything besides my shakes but god they are horrible.    I so needed this today, thank you so much.

Just keep telling yourself that it is only 16 more days! 16 more days until you hit the losers bench. 16 more days until you get your second chance at life. 16 more days until you start seeing the new you!! 16 days is nothing compared to what you get at the end of it!!! I hear you on the detox. 4 weeks pepsi free and still finding it so hard. You can do it! We can do it!!! Stay strong my friend!!! You have so much to fight for and so much to live for!!!
