OK here goes! Heres a 1 year comparison pic!
I started MFP in November but fell off the wagon pretty quickly... 20th April I restarted and have been pretty good the last 3 months (I won't deny I have not been overly strict!) Mixed with watching what I eat, eating back my exercise calories, running 2-3 times a week and bodyweight exercises at home 2-3 times a week has resulted in a 30lb weight loss between these 2 photos! I still have a long way to go and need to work on my problem area (my belly) but I'm on my way now and hopefully this way of life is sticking . I love reading the stories on here so thought It was time I posted my own!8hyx18tv6iug.jpg

    No amount of weight could disguise that great smile - but you look so healthy now! Your boy is going to love having an energetic mom. :)

    Good job! Stick with exercising (Preferably weight lifting) eating right and don't go overboard with your calories. I promise that you'll see another huge transformation the next year doing this.

    You are an inspiration to us all. It's not easy with a little one to focus on your weight goals, but you are doing it and it looks great.
