8 months a little late with (PICS)

Sorry I've been MIA for a couple weeks. My daughter was in the hospital and all I could  think about was her. I did take pics on the 15th and thought I'd share them with all of you! I think I'm losing slower then most but I try not to compare myself to others. 110 lbs is nothing to sneeze at. I'm really happy with my weight loss. I totally LOVE my DS! The BEST decision I've ever made for me! My family didn't like the idea but love my DS now also! So funny!!! Thank you guys for all your support and wisdom! Love to all of you! I did great with protein and vites through all the stuff with my daughter. Didn't miss anything. Well, guess I'll tell y'all why that's a big deal. She is 10 years old and tried to hang herself on the playground at school. Then we found out that she is starting cutting tendiencies. She has spent 2 weeks in a behavioral hospital for children, and now she's home and her well being is THE most important thing. Therapy, Psych doctor, medication, and time and love. It's gonna be a long,hard road but I know with the help and love of family and friends we will get through this! Sorry to unload on you guys! Thanks for listening. Here's the pics!!!

 You look great!    I'm sorry to hear about your daughter, and I am so relieved that she is in treatment.   I have a student who is having similar issues and early intervention is so crucial.    My best wishes for you and your family for a great and healthy outcome.

Thanks,Julie!

She has a long road ahead of her but she has a great support system. Treatment is key! Thanks again!
