I have been overweight for most of my life with a few skinny years sprinkled in during high school and college. I gained a lot of weight during my first pregnancy and struggled to lose over the next 4 years and through two more pregnancies. I was at my heaviest weight of 205 lbs after my oldest daughter was born in 2007 . After my second was born in 2008, I was at a "trim" 190. I lost a little before having my son in 2011, but still weighed in the 180s. When I joined MFP last December, I had already lost a few lbs by eating healthier, but in December, I it really hit me. I wanted to be healthy and happy for me, my children and my husband. I was tired of being afraid to go out in public without spanx and wanted to change myself. Since starting my weight loss journey, I have lost 60 lbs (including pre- MFP), and I am actually below my goal weight and I feel like a million bucks. I never imagined that I could weigh 134 lbs, let alone have jeans that I wore in high school falling down! I have never felt better. I lost by eating healthy foods, dabbling in organic and whole foods with lots of fruit and veggies. I work out 3-5 days per week doing running, yoga, zumba, strength training and a round of insanity. I eat 50- 75% of my exercise calories with healthy calories. I don't just focus on quantity, I focus on quality. I still splurge sometimes, but I don't go crazy. My biggest accomplishment has been running. I started with the couch to 5K, and now, I run a few miles a few times a week. If I can do this, anyone can!

*UPDATE*
Since reaching my goals and posting my success story, I have discovered that I am pregnant with baby #4! Now will be my real test of all of my healthy life changes and habits! I will still be logging and working out so I can gain a healthy amount of weight and have a super- healthy pregnancy, and if all goes well, a beautiful homebirth! I am due April 15th, and even though this was a big surprise, I am very excited to have a healthy pregnancy! Thank you all for your continued encouragement and support!
PS I am actually about 7 weeks pregnant in most of my after pics (including the bikini one) and didn't know!0 -
