I posted this in the main forum but wanted to post it here as well. You all have inspired me and this is my change so far:flowerforyou:
.
I am a 32year old mother of 2 boys ages 3 & 1-1/2. I am 5'10" and I am thrilled with my progress in just 2 short months!

So this first pic is day one of my change at 188.6Lbs 3 April 2013

Here I am 179.8lbs 26 April. This is just a change in my diet. About 1500-1600 cal daily.

This is today 174.2Lbs 1 June. I started SL 5x5 3 times a week for 4weeks so far. Still no cardio yet.

My next goal is to add in cardio 2x a week to help increase the # of cals I can eat.

Hope these pics can help inspire others as so many others have helped to inspire me:flowerforyou:

    You ladies are great!
    I love to pick up heavy s#^t and put it down.
    Thanks for all the encouragement.
    I recommend monthly pics to anyone who wants to kick the scale habit.

    Thank you. I think the thing I love the most is how strong I feel after a lifting session.:love:
    I don't know if I am weird but I enjoy that worked tired and sore muscle feeling the rest of the day. :huh:
    The visual changes are cool also.:bigsmile:

    They are so worth it. You can find the little changes when you compare side by side. A trick to be objective is keep your face out of it. This helps keep your mind from projecting what it thinks you look like and forces you to see the change. It is amazing!

    You're not weird. I love feeling strong and seeing progress and results. What's weird to me is, how much I love it. Never would've thunk it. :bigsmile:
