in Success Stories
Weight has always been an issue for me. I've battled with it since I was a teenager. Before I got pregnant with my 3rd baby I hit my biggest size. I knew after our son was born it was time to get serious so I could be there for my children. So April 2011 I joined MFP and began my journey. Now a year later I'm down 67 pounds and feeling great!!! It has taken hard work and dedication but I'm proof that anyone can do this at home!!!! I've now become a Beachbody Coach in hoping I can help others achieve their weightloss success. Life is just too short so get serious today and start!!

    Congratulations! Love your smile in that last pic!! You look happy.

    I have roughly the same goal. I need about 50 more pounds to be gone. I hope I can do as well as you did!

    I've changed my view on food 100%. I eat more clean and I count every calorie that I eat. I love high intense cardio and weight training. Having a support network that cheers me on has helped HUGE. Having these pictures of myself has helped also. The more the weight came off the more I was excited to see more come off. It has not always been easy but so worth it in the end.
