I have been trying to loose 25lbs since the birth of my daughter 4 years ago and every day is a struggle. What I have recently come to learn is importance of strength training. The scale doesn't seem to fluctuate much hovering between 176-179lbs. ( I'm 5ft8") But when I did my first side by side photo grid I can truly see the difference. I'm going on vacation in 1 week and I really want to wear a two piece. I have a ways to go but I can see a huge difference in these pics. This about a 2month consistent period of logging calories and exercising. It works! And I'm determined to keep going(pics to cone as soon as I figure out how to load from my phone
