I started my diet on Oct 21st 2012, then on Oct 23rd my daughter fell off some playground equipment and ended up with a grade 4 laceration to her spleen and was flown over 2 hrs away to a children's hospital. After a week in the hospital (2nights in PICU and 4 nights on med/surg) we got to come home. Then I restarted my diet on November 1st weighing 200lbs currently I weigh approximately 170lbs so 30lbs in 3 months, my goal is 140lbs. I am feeling pretty good about that, looking back at pictures I am surprised at how heavy I had gotten and didn't even realize it. I am glad I found this website, it beats writing it down on a piece of paper each day.

    Thank you everyone, and yes my daughter has healed fine just a little remaining anxiety at times. And she hates helicopters.
