edited October 5 in Success Stories
Today MFP said you have logged in 150 days so what the hay. Here is my journey. I changed how I was eating, how much I was eating and got off my heiny. I did Insanity workout, biking and now i'm running. My goals are no longer scale related. I'm aiming for a half marathon in May :) I have 2 kids, one via csection and 18 months later one via vbac. My youngest just turned 1 last week. I hope this inspires other moms. :)

Edit to add: I'm currently a stay at home mom and either workout at nap time or take the kids in the jogging/biking trailer. I'm going back to school in January though!

Moms can relate i'm sure:

    Great job!! I'm a SAHM too (my son is 2 1/2) and I gained 35 lbs during my pregnancy... went from 215 to 250! And I'm only 5'3. It took me til NOW to reach under 200 (195.6 as of this morning) and I think you are an inspiration!

    Awesome work! I just hit my 50 lbs lost today! I have another 50 to go, I had a baby in January of this year and gained way too much during my pregnancy, I'm glad to see that you have been successful in losing the weight! It gives me hope!

    Thanks :)

    My first pregnancy I went from 154 to 200! I was enlisted in the Army and my husband was away at basic training. (Didnt even see his son till he was 2 months old). I guess I over indulged in my loneliness lol

    I hope my belly one day looks like yours! I have the same mommy tummy you had..... but I've had mine since I was 25, so I'm not sure it's going to cooperate with me.

    You look fantastic!

    Thanks everyone for the kind words. Hard work does pay off!

    As for as the skin hang I still have a bit but it's too low to show in a picture. It's slowly going away on it's own. I do moderate ab workout twice a week. It's taking care of itself a lot better than I ever imagined.
