I am also curious how tall you are?
You are beautiful before and after. But obviously so much stronger and healthier after!0 -
Wow.. I went out to play with my kids and came back to this.. thank you guys so much.. I really wasn't expecting to many replies! Hope no one minds that I sent out friend requests to everyone. I've only been on MFP for about a month and always looking for new motivation! And I am 29 years old and about 5'8 (always varies depending on who is measuring me lol)0

Hi everyone! My story is not as long as some other's. I've had 5 kids in 9 years (9,8,4,3, and 19months). I've been physical most of my life, but between back to back to back pregnancies and heath issues, I found myself in a body that I was unfamiliar with. I didn't quite lose it all after baby #3, then didn't quite lose all of the next after baby #4, within 5 months having the last baby I was actually 10lbs bigger than I was the day I delivered! I was unhappy with my body and felt awful. I began eating healthy and got my butt back i the gym and the weight started to come off. During the Spring of 2012 I started the Beach Body workouts and have now finished INSANITY 3 times (working on #4 now) and Insanity Asylum, plus Brazil Butt Lift. I'm a Beach Body coach and love motivating others. But like everyone else, I am busy... I work full-time, go to school full-time and have a family. I like to eat when I'm stressed, when I'm bored.. pretty much all the time. I get it, I've been there.. and if I can do it I know you can, too! My before and after pictures are below: I've gone from (at my highest) 196 to my (lowest) 131 - I'm about 136/137 right now as I've started lifting heavy and am gaining a lot of muscle.
Amazing results bet you are happy to get back to your normal self.
This is me BEFORE: December 2012 about 196lb and a squeezed into a size 12 (I was truly a 14). This is me after about 135 and a size 2.
BEFORE: about 180 a size 12 / Mid about 145 a size 4/6 and NOW 135 a size 2.
My hope is to share my story and inspire others who think they are too far gone, too busy, too tired, or whatever to get in the best shape of their lives and make BIG CHANGES. YOU CAN DO THIS.0 -
That is exactly what I'm starting off at (175). I'm amazed at your transformation! Thank you for sharing. Great motivation for me!0

you look fabulous!0

Dude. Your stretch marks look non existent now. Did you do something or did they just kind of fade?0
-
This is so inspirational - I am not a mom, but I am extremely busy. I started out nearly exactly where you were and my ultimate goal is to be less than a size 6 (I'm not sure what if have to weight to get there as I've never been anything below a size 8 and that was when I was 15). I've been struggling with motivation lately but this definitely helps!0

You're a mom of 5???!! You go, girl. Seriously.0
-
W00t! Props Mom!0

Wonderful work! I have 4 kids, thanks for the hope that it is possible to lose my stomach.0

Wow, what an inspiration! I hope to look as great as you do & 60lbs lighter in 11 months time.

I can't believe 5 babies have come out of that body. You look incredible!
Truly inspirational!
I'm about to finish my second round of Insanity; seeing your story motivates me to go for another round soon, so thanks0 -
Thank you. Nope had nothing done.. They have faded a lot.. I only got them with my oldest and she's almost 10. but I still have them, I think it's just a flattery picture with the way the light hits lol. The skin is tight but the marks are there.0

I personally would be happy to be at your before size! I have a long way to go to goal.0 -
So impressive! You look amazing. I'm about 5'8" too, 146 pounds, hoping I can look anywhere near as good as you when I'm at goal.0
