in Success Stories
Just wanted to share my story. I am 5'5" and a 36 year old mother of 2. I have lost 35 pounds and gone from a size 14 pant to a size 8 and a size 12 dress to size 6. I consistently track my calories and exercise 30 minutes a day even if it is just a walk. With a lot of determination and the support from my fitness pals and the website tools, I continue to strive to reach my goal weight..I hope I inspire someone today:)

For those who are curious, I net 1250 cals day (meaning I eat back my exercise calories). My initial success came from Jillian Michaels Ripped in 30 and ellipitical machine. In past months i have taken up running. Just try to do 30 minutes a day of something!

    You have completely inspired me. I am 38, mother of two, 5'4" and started at 169, looking to lose about 30-35. Just finished up 30 day shred, lost about 4.5 lbs. Have been obsessing on mfp. Your results are exactly what I would like to be. Thanks for sharing

    You look amazing. I would love to know what all kinds of exercise you did. I barely see a difference in myself after my 20 pound lost. So, please share on the types of exercise you did to get this amazing progress. (:

    Another awesome MFP success story. That's an amazing change and transformation. With just a little encouragement from friends here and some continuous dedication and hard work on your part you've done it. I'm sure you'll only improve your fitness from here on out. This is just the beginning.

    Amazing and very inspiring! I have a very similar weight-loss goal to what you had. Only hope I can be as successful. Seems like it gets harder & harder as I age. So glad to see someone not that much younger than me having such fantastic success. Keep up the great work!
