    You give me hope! I'm your same height and weight after baby number 1 (well that's where I started anyway). YOU LOOK AMAZING. Not only that, but your happiness just shines through in the second round of pictures. I can't wait to be there!

    Hands down to you. such great will power and motivation! super envy. Keep up the great work girl!

    I noticed that there was no mention of how long it took you to get to where you are now - 141 lbs. When were the first pics and when were the last pics taken? My goal is also 135 lbs as well but I could never lose a pound since I plateau'd so I stopped weighing myself! I relied on body measurements instead.

    Hello there=) Thanks for the compliment, I was 210 3 weeks after I had my daughter, then I lost it down to 187 in January of 2013 the reason I say 187 is because I plateaued as well on that number from October to January, but of course I wasn't making any changes. I wasn't going to the gym 5 days a week, I would go then stop because we would get sick, or kids would get sick. Then I would be unmotivated to go back. 4 days after my little brother's funeral in February I had surgery to remove scar tissue from my ankle and remove hardware, no exercise or movement until late March, slowly cycling in late March of 2013, then I just went everyday because it was helping me to stop crying so much everyday, then after 1 month I cut it back to just 5 days a week. I still cried most of the days and still do now but working out is what makes me feel better and enjoy my family.
    Here's a breakdown:
    June of 2012
    Jan of 2013-187lbs
    May of 2013-about 167 I believe
    Now 141
    I gained 7lbs over the holidays visiting my dad with all his Samoan cooking but I lost it by going back to normal eating and exercising schedule. =) I'll try to see if I can post the chart it will show you lots of plateaus. Those are so frustrating but when you lose a 1 pound let that be your fuel and tell yourself "Time to burn!!"
