Yes, but when you post that in isolation, we have no idea where to place 
it in the code you originally posted.

When you say "at the very start" do you mean before the LOOP is declared, 
or do you mean inside the loop after the exit condition is declared, or 
do you mean inside the loop before the exit condition is declared, or 
something else?

We're guessing.

What's Image? Is it relevant to reproducing the problem? What about all 
the IO? How much of that is your troubleshooting, and how much is 
actually relevant to the problem?

Please help us to help you!
