    So I have always had less definition on my belly than I liked, but it started really bothering me, so I joined a friends 30 day challenge where I challenged myself to eat more protein and work out 5 days a week, doing weights and circuit training and tiny amounts of cardio.
    This is my before:

    This is 2 weeks in, just on half way through the challenge: (note I am a gainer/maintainer so I try not to actively lose weight, though I cut my cals to 1900 and accidentally lost 2.2 lbs between these pics. so I think most of it was fat.)

    My before pictures are not the best because I did not allow pictures to be taken of me in my bikini.

    These are 1 year after 6th baby was born. I normally lose the baby weight easier, but not this time.

    I teach Zumba everyday, but really any cardio will work. I burn around 400-500 calories per day. I eat 1600-1900 calories per day. What I think has helped is what I eat. I eat around 100 carbs/day and 150 protein/day.

    I do not do crunches, but a lot of my songs include a lot of pumping the hips, which is like doing crunches standing up. I do planks, and ab vacuums. I highly recommend ab vacuums! Those work your core and actually pull in your abs.

    Since I am the teacher, I design my class so we are burning fat but also toning up our muscles. So, when we get rid of that fat, we have pretty lean muscle underneath. I do believe in muscle building, it just makes a body look fit and healthy!

    I still have stretch marks and loose skin from having six kids, but it does look a lot better.
    Whew! I feel a lot better after reading this. I'm about to have my 5th baby, so I'm feeling a lot more optimistic!

    I love this thread! Everyone looks amazing and are awesome! I have lost my weight but just cannot seem to get that toned tummy. I will keep trying, but hopefully I'll be posting some amazing abs in the not too distant future.

    After looking at all these before/after pics it got me motivated to go to the gym today. I never go on the weekends but I figure if I want to look nearly as good as much as you people I better be putting in more time at the gym!

    60 min of walking on the treadmill = 400 calories burned! Yay me!
