    That is incredible, and you look fantastic! I totally understand the part about how when people ask you how you did it, they are not thrilled about the eating right and exercising answer. I get this a lot. People see me and ask how I have lost weight, and I give them the same answer. It is obvious that they were hoping it was some kind of miracle pill, or magic dust that does not actually require effort!

    You ask your 2 year old daughter to do her squats?

    You ask your 2 year old daughter to do her squats?

    Yes I ask her to do her squats, she finds it funny and like a game. I don't make her do them, she will be dancing and shaking her butt and I'll do my squats and usually she'll pretend to do hers, it's really cute because she squats all the way down and sits on the ground.

    Congratulations! You are Queen of MFP for the day! You should be so proud of yourself, heck, I am proud of you. And you have inspired me to think from a different perspective. I have been telling myself to make goals but I have never actually set them. It is time to take action today!

    Thanks for sharing and the inspiration you have provided for me, others and your family!
