    Reached Goal!! (Pics)

    edited February 24 in Success Stories
    Well I feel like it's finally my turn to share! ;)
    I'm a stay at home/homeschooling mom of 3 kids under the age of 4! (Height is 5'4) Basically did what everyone else is doing, making better food choices, counting your calories/macros and exercising at home. I think it took me a bit longer than most because all I have is 30 mins a day to exercise, plus I like eating what I want once a week without logging :) But I am soo happy because I set and reached my goal of getting to 135lbs by our summer vacation (which is next week), yay!
    And I have to add that I have been heavy lifting since March and I am totally in love with it! Ever since I started lifting the weight seemed so much easier and faster to come off. So my next goal is to get toned and keep up with my lifting routine! (Thanks to all you lovely ladies who lift, you are what got me lifting in the first place)

    Sorry I don't have such a great before pic. But here they are:

      Congratulations! MFP and being interested in nutrition made me reach target a while back and I'm still on track.
      I was lucky to have friends who pushed me into a gym routine where I started heavy cardio and now I'm a lifter and I LOVE IT.
      There's nothing better than seeing your progress and seeing that you're becoming stronger (not only through muscle, but the actual feeling and seeing that you can use heavier weights).

      This was my progress:

      My profile pic is a more recent one though.

      Once again congrats! :D And good luck with the lifting x

      Awesome! Another example of how lifting makes one look like they've lost more weight than the scale would indicate! WTG!!!! What an awesome example for your kids, too.

      Well my husband and I found a great deal on craigslist for a bench, complete with free weights and bar. So I started of with Stronglifts 5x5 and used the stronglifts app. But then I decided to do my own workout routine.
