    Wow - you look amazing. How tall are you? I feel like you have a very similar body to mine (very similar at different weights) and I find that really inspiring. I started at 222, am now around 210 (also use trendweight) and would like to get down to 140. To be honest, your photos at 194 and 170 make me feel so much better because those weights, especially 194, are within reach and I think you already look so much better at those weights. You can really see that you lost fat, not muscle, and that you must work out and that makes a real difference in looking good so quickly. Of course, I want to hit my ultimate goal, but even getting down below 200 I think will make a real difference and help motivate. Also, I have to say that you look AMAZING through your second pregnancy. You clearly kept in good shape and your legs have so much strength and it's very cool that you carried good habits through your pregnancy even when you had to put weight loss on hold. Congratulations!
