    I just counted calories and exercised. I followed no specific diet, I changed it up when I got bored. In my case carbs do matter when I eat too many carbs I gain even if the calories are low. I also ate over 100 grams of protein a day. I joined the gym and got a personal trainer, for strength training, used the elliptical and treadmill, walked, biked, and did start running. ran my first 5k on sept 22nd. I still have a few lbs to lose, but they are stubborn and don't want to leave! basically I ate less, moved more.
    Thanks for the nice compliments everyone, I wasn't going to post until I was done, but thought it would help lift my mood, and help me to keep plugging along.

    Thanks for this - This is basically my plan and sometimes that seed of doubt creeps in that there must be some magic pill, magic food combo, or magic excercise I am not doing that I need to do. Thanks for the reassurance! You look incredible.

    That is sooooo fantastic! I am just starting out and I have a question for you or anyone else who has lost a lot..... I have a lot to lose but I am worried about all my extra skin., if there is any. I am afraid of hating a new lighter but saggy skinned body more than I hate my fat body! You look so great in your pic. I know it's a personal question, but did you have the problem of baggy skin?

    I do have some loose skin, Its not nearly as bad as I had worried it was going to be when I first started. And it is getting better all the time. It is better than being bigger and No one can tell I have any at all. I have went down sizes lately losing no scale weight and I believe its that my skin is tightening up some. With 7 pregnancies, one being an emergency c-section (Lateral not bikini cut) I don't expect a will ever get a visable 6 pack, but thats OK, my tummy is flat in my jeans and spandex gym pants too. Don't worry about the skin, If it becomes a problem, you can deal with the problem then. what I am saying dont worry about a problem you don't even have yet. get healthy.
