You look amazing! What is your secret??0 -
My progress from DEC to FEB and left to right the weights were 190, 182 and 172.
I have three babies, all girls, and they are six, three and one. The one year old was a ten pounder and boy was I stretched to the max.0 -
bamshunny, you look great! Fast progress, too. You must be working hard
.
And thanks, ladies, for the compliments! It's been a lot of work, but I've really enjoyed it so far .
Goalpeace: My secret isn't much of one, thankfully! I haven't been cutting out any foods (in fact, I've eaten a chocolate chip cookie or two most days this week), just sticking to 1300 net calories per day, eating any exercise calories I want or am hungry for. (I'm only 5'0"). I try to make sure I get more protein than I used to, and I space it out throughout the day so that I'm not too hungry.
In terms of exercise, it's been Zumba roughly 3 times per week, weightlifting class once or twice a week, and running here and there when a class won't fit into the picture. I figure I should get all the exercise I can in while I'm still on maternity leave! Less than 3 months left before I'm back to work. I think that will be where the real challenge is, but I'm up to it!0 -
Day 70 (yesterday), 11lb difference
Last image is pretty crappy quality but improved muscle tone is definitely there.
It's almost been 12 weeks and people are already noticing the changes. I was encouraged today at my gym to become a fitness instructor.. so while the photos don't do me justice IMO, people are noticing.0 -

You are looking SO good for a momma of 3! Keep up the excellent work! I also had a heavy second addition to the family so I can relate to the stretched to the max bit. Push on hun!0 -
My progress picture is my profile picture! My mama apron is gone and my stretch marks are really faded0

Can't see anything else but your legs look fab!!0 -
I have triplets who are turning 9 in May. I have lost 11 lbs since Feb 4. Is slower going than I had hoped. I was 212 and now 201. I am 41 yrs old and 6ft tall and hope to get down to at least 180. I was 160 when I got married in 1997 and 193 when I got divorced in 2011. I have a lot of stretch marks and belly hanging. How do I find the 1st part of this thread? 0
