    Thanks so much for the inspiration!! I am currently pregnant and will be at about your starting weight (also 6' tall) once I have the baby - would love to be at your current weight, but know it will take hard work and dedication!!

    You have amazing muscle definition - would you mind sharing what your workout regime looked like?

    .

    Thank you yes old fashion way I joined gym in jan. I do eat too lol I went down to 1600 and eat back exercise calories well most. I average 1700 to 2000 calorie and still lost plenty of weight don't believe in Starving myself. I don't eat supper clean but mostly. I splurge once a month for a meal and a sweet treat. But just changed my life style change. I don't eat dairy though personal decision drink almond milk. Also past 3 no carbs empty carbs only veggie. I eat a big breakfast and lunch and put most all carbs in those meals and my dinner a lean meat and a veggie. You can also look at my dairy.
