You give me hope! I'm your same height and weight after baby number 1 (well that's where I started anyway). YOU LOOK AMAZING. Not only that, but your happiness just shines through in the second round of pictures. I can't wait to be there!0

Hands down to you. such great will power and motivation! super envy. Keep up the great work girl!
I noticed that there was no mention of how long it took you to get to where you are now - 141 lbs. When were the first pics and when were the last pics taken? My goal is also 135 lbs as well but I could never lose a pound since I plateau'd so I stopped weighing myself! I relied on body measurements instead.
Hello there=) Thanks for the compliment, I was 210 3 weeks after I had my daughter, then I lost it down to 187 in January of 2013 the reason I say 187 is because I plateaued as well on that number from October to January, but of course I wasn't making any changes. I wasn't going to the gym 5 days a week, I would go then stop because we would get sick, or kids would get sick. Then I would be unmotivated to go back. 4 days after my little brother's funeral in February I had surgery to remove scar tissue from my ankle and remove hardware, no exercise or movement until late March, slowly cycling in late March of 2013, then I just went everyday because it was helping me to stop crying so much everyday, then after 1 month I cut it back to just 5 days a week. I still cried most of the days and still do now but working out is what makes me feel better and enjoy my family.
Here's a breakdown:
June of 2012
Jan of 2013-187lbs
May of 2013-about 167 I believe
Now 141
I gained 7lbs over the holidays visiting my dad with all his Samoan cooking but I lost it by going back to normal eating and exercising schedule. I'll try to see if I can post the chart it will show you lots of plateaus. Those are so frustrating but when you lose a 1 pound let that be your fuel and tell yourself "Time to burn!!"0 -
I like how you said you were your own hero. Really amazing! You look fantastic!0

Thank you=) still working on it that's what I love about MFP it's so not a diet, all this time b4 I was trying different ridiculous diets and cleansing. I had no idea what to do because I was always thin up until 26years old, each year after 26 I would pack on more lbs from lack of volleyball training and Polynesian dancing, I ate like cow but 4 hours of college volleyball practice a day allowed that. So important to link your workout with MFP and so awesome to see others success so you can see that you can do it. Have fun on your journey you will get there say it out loud, tell someone then just do it.
