At my heaviest (not pregnant :happy: ) I weighed 185lbs at 5' 1/2". by december 2012 I was down to about 165lbs which is when this picture was taken:

I started using My Fitness Pal to track my food intake and get inspiration - A LOT of inspiration. I also started working with a personal trainer in April. At first I worked with my trainer 3 times a week and did cardio three times as well. As I progressed I moved to 2 days a week and am now at one day a week with my trainer. The changes I've seen in my energy levels and my body are amazing.

I've given birth to 6 children - 2 set of twins - which wreak havoc on a person's body, especially when you're short! I never thought I could start to look as I am without surgery and I love knowing that I worked my butt off (literally!) for every single pound and muscle!

There is no magic diet. There is no magic pill. There is your sweat and hard work and determination to live a healthier life. That's what gets results!

    HA! My MIL gave me that shirt...it's too big on me, which isn't the worst since animal prints aren't exactly my cup of tea :tongue:
