The photo on the left was taken yesterday and the photo to the right was me on January 22nd! This is also 5months post postpartum from my second child. I have worked very hard to get where I am and as a mother of two I am proud and confident about my looks and feeling great.

I started lifting weights and changed my diet around. I didnt actually get to my "goal" weight which is 127 but my main goal was to fit into my pre pregnancy clothing and I do now ^_^ It seems that lifting weights changed my body composition so much that the weight on the scale didnt change like I thought it would. I am a size 3 jean at 140lbs. I started out a size 10 at 160lbs!!

My journey isnt over though, Im determined to get those 6 pack abs ;)

    Great job and thanks for sharing! People who are on the fence about lifting need this kind of motivation and confirmation that lifting really can change your body - it's not always just about cardio and numbers on the scale.
