Baby weight and spin class results

Never thought I would post pics but here we go.
In a struggle to see success stories about taking spin class I have decided to put myself out there in hopes of helping others.
I'm a mom of a 9 month old via c-section. I gained about 35lbs. After fluid retention went away I was left with about 20 lbs to lose. 5 months of 2/week classes then 2 months of 3+/week and I was back at my pre baby weight. I eat chips, drink pop.. etc so my diet has nothing to do with results. I'm sure they would be better if I had eaten better. I nurse but found that whole, "breastfeeding and the calories melt away", did not apply to me whatsoever.
I love spin and can't wait to see what else it can do for me. I have always been very bottom heavy and I have lost all the inches below and then some. Just my upper body still struggles.

Thought I would give an update. I kept up with the spin class now down to 2x a week. I slimmed down further but my weight stayed the same pre-baby weight. I changed my diet and have lost 15 lbs since the start of 2019. My body is definitely different then before baby, my hips are much smaller and I attribute that to spin completely. I always was a pear shape and hadn't had hips below 38" (usually I was closer to 40") now I'm down to 37". My belly is still bigger then before baby but is also slimming since changing my diet.
