I started losing weight and being health conscience mid April of this year. 8 months later and these are my results :D

This is me the day after I found out I was pregnant with my daughter (she is now 2.5).

This is me 9mths pregnant and weighing upward of 230lbs. I gained over 50lbs while pregnant (all 3 times) I never went about it in a "healthy" way, I just ate and ate and ate...It was OK, I was eating for 2. SMDH!!

It took over 2 yrs after I had my daughter for me to get my butt in gear and to decide that I wasn't going to live in that body any longer and that I was taking the control back. I had lost about 16lbs before it clicked that I should start taking progressive pictures.

A pic from July I had lost about 17lbs:

    Wow! You look fabulous! What an inspiration. We seem to have had identical pregnancy motto's! I am down by 8.5 lbs since joining, but was weighing about 210 lbs right after the birth of my daughter (also 2.5 ... and a 6 year old) and started MFP at 175 lbs.
    I don't think my stomach skin will come back as nicely as yours appears to have. I hate my stomach now... ironically it was always my favorite body part!
    Haven't taken too many pics of myself. Can't say I want the evidence!!! :ohwell:
    Anyways, thanks for the inspiration. I was craving chocolate until I read your post and you stopped that craving right in it's tracks! How can I eat chocolate when I know that I cold look as good as you if I don't!!! Thank you! :happy:
