Wow! I have been at this journey for 8 months and I feel FANTASTIC!! I have changed my life and my families life around :) I have lost 62 pounds and lots of inches ;o) I still have more work to do but I was so excited to get into a size 8 instead of an 18 and small in shirts and drawstring pants! This makes me so happy. The charts have me at 135 pounds but being 155 feels amazing...maybe I will get there and maybe I will just be a little bulky :) I love lifting heavy weights 3x a week and and HIIT 2x a week. Some weeks I can't always get it all in but I do my best :) I eat at 10% below my TDEE. Let me just say the hardest part is figuring out the calories and what works for my body! Keep up all the great work my MFP buddies and newbies its all worth it in the end :)

    I don't know you but, I am super proud of you. Please keep up the good work for me , I am watching & using you as my inspiration. Do you have any tips or tricks that would be helpful to me. I am currently set at intaking 1480 calories, I try not to go over at all. I walk about 20 mins everyday but at my size my stamina isn't to good. Please any helpful tips or advise you can give would be greatly appreciated on my end.

    You look great.....I can't wait to get where you are. I am truly encourage by your success because your weight and sizes match mine & where you are now is my goal. I want my pre mommy body back.

    Fantastic work! You look wonderful!

    I am in month 4 and only down 21 pounds. Have about 35-40 lbs to go and was hoping to do it by the end of the year. Your story has given me hope that it COULD happen! Thanks!
