Mother of 5 / 67lbs lost!

I am the mother of 5 children ages 2-10. A year and a half ago, my body was something that I was uncomfortable with. I lacked energy to play with my children, could not take the stairs at work, and had no concern for what or how much I ate. 6 months after my youngest child was born, I found myself 15lbs bigger than I was on the day that I delivered! I knew it was time. With the help of Insanity, Shakeology, healthy eating habits, and healthy exercise habits, I was able to go from a size 14 to a size 0/2 and 196lbs to 129lbs! Of course, I still strive for more and have new goals, while they are no longer weight loss goals. I am always looking for new friends for support and motivation. I am a certified personal trainer (have been since 2005, but fell off the wagon with three births in three years!)! Friend me if interested!

Good for you! You look amazing!
Is that a Smith machine you are using in your profile pic? I'm asking because I have access to one, but not a power rack and I was a bit sad because I wanted to do SL. If it is, do you do a program or do your own lifts?0 -
It is. I love that machine! Feel free to friend me and message me and I'd be happy to chat with you more about it! But you can pretty much do EVERYTHING on it!0

Actually I'm not currently selling any BB products due to family health issues (hence me being absent from MFP for the last 2 months) But do love the smith machine and love encouraging others!0

Thank you ladies! Honestly, if I can motivate one person to think "if she can do it, so can I" then it's worth it. Once I was at my largest I kept looking at people and thinking "They did it, why can't I?" but couldn't get my motivation until it finally clicked in my mind one day. And while I don't do programs anymore, I do hit the gym every day and eat a healthy meal plan, and know that I'll never be "perfect" in my mind but we don't have to be.. Thanks again!0
