I had baby # 6 April 2013l. I started logging calories and exercising September 4. I didn't take an official before picture until September 17. I have been counting calories along with alternating cardio (of my choice) and the strength training. Body building . com is a great place to look for free programs. I only share my story to encourage or inspire others. If I can do it, you can too!

I'm 5' 1
Before Stats: 9-4-13
Weight: 133 (It was 137 for a while but I just started counting the day I started getting serious)
Waist: 30.5
Hips: 39

Now
Wt. 113
Waist: 25.5
Hips: 35.5

I've been maintaing these stats for several months now. Originally, my goal was 110. But now, I'm not worried about the # on the scale! My goal is to get stronger and firmer!

    There is no way that you look like you've had 6 kids in the before OR after photo! Hope I look that good after just 1 kid!

    I can assure you that if I had 6 kids, I would be thrilled to look like your before picture. Actually, I'd be thrilled to even be able to find a camera with which to take a before photo ;) Your after photo is just awesome.
