Well, here it is.. I am super proud and feel like a new person!!! I am a young 26 mom of 3, and now I actually feel like it! :) I went from a size 16 pants and XL shirts to a size 10 pants and a Medium shirt!!! I have been pregnant for the past 3 years, having my sonderful children, but I wanted my old body back. I started at 204lbs and lost the first 20lbs by myself without working out, then I got stuck. I joined Goodlife, started going with my children 4-5 times w week, and have lost another 23lbs!! Another 7 or so lbs and I am FINALLY at my goal weight!!! ahhhhh!!!! Word of advice - don't give up!! Keep moving forward.. so you have a bad calorie day..move past it for tomorrow! This site really works!:)

    Thank you everyone so very much! When I started, I remember reading the success stories all the time, just wanting that to be me, and now I feel amazing!

    @Boogie17 - CARDIO CARDIO CARDIO!! That is what I have been doing, and luckily it takes weight off everywhere, I have not started to focus on my belly till now, I totally believe that is where the last 7-10lbs lies! lol. I love cardio, and alot of people don't. What really has worked for me is the elliptical, and the stair treadmill.

    hahaha, isn't the first pic funny? totally covered in a kitchen full of food, hating the fact my mother in law is taking my picture, and just so upset with the way I looked. The other one, my face is completely how I feel! We were holding a fundraiser for our son with Autism this past weekend, and I was happier than anything!!!! Thank you all again for your wonderful comments!!!!! You are all amazing people, so supportive and so positive!!! :)
