The race isn't given to the swift nor the strong, but it's given to the ones who endure it to the end...
Excellent news for your daughter! I'm so glad for her. She muts be loving the results thus far; I know I am! In 107 lbs, she must be seeing some pretty incredible changes!
Me? I've hit onederland (a place I haven't visited in 30+ years!) and thus far, I've lost 98 lbs. I've stalled at 199 at the moment. But I keep hanging in there. I'm down from a 22/24 to size 14 (yahoo!) and I had a body composition analysis done that tells me that I have "oodles of muscle" and I only need to lose another 30 or 31 lbs. Pretty good, all in all. There are days that are harder than others but I keep at it. My family on the east coast saw me last month and jaws dropped. The flight was a blast; I finally FIT in the seats without pushing the armrests up! My doc saw me yesterday and is really pleased at the progress. And my old co-workers saw me two weeks ago and were absolutely stunned at the changes... hair, size, makeup, and (gasp!) I'm wearing colours again! They couldn't believe it. The next test: Great Wolf Lodge in Niagara Falls next week. I should be okay to get on all the rides now! Looking forward to that!
Sending hugs down the road to you both; and huge smiles all around for the great work you both are doing!
