My Workout Buddy Went Back to College

My daughter left last Friday to go back to school. We had really established a great routine over the summer. She lost 12.6 lbs and went back to school looking great! I know she is a bit nervous about being able to continue to make the right choices when she is surrounded with friends wanting to eat out all the time.

I couldn’t be more proud of her, for that, and too many other things to even mention. She is everything I thought a daughter ever could be, and so much more.

That trip took place last weekend and I was hoping to be at 170. […]
