    So glad you posted. I'm also 6 weeks into NROLFW, eating at maintenance (and scared with that!) and hoping to drop some fat but not worried about the weight. See your photos has got me excited and looking forward to the journey ahead.

    OMG you've done incredibly! You look amazing!

    My weight loss has also been really slow (last 6mo non-existant). 2 mo ago I started strength training. I think I need to seriously look into NROLFW instead of just thinking about it.

    omg wow thats amazing congrats!!! im on my second week of strength training but im eating like 1500 cals a day and im a lot taller than you...now you've got me worried lol , is the only way to get those awesome abs by eating at maintenance?

    Try eating maintenance for a bit and you will see what it does :)

    Thank you everyone. I feel a bit like a fraude because you are not seeing the ugly .... I have strech marks up to over my belly button.... I can't do anything about that, so I am doing the best with what I can do :)

    Thanks for taking time to type out your history - it's so impressive to see the changes you've made and how great you look after the babies! I think your photos are really inspiring for people who are exercising, eating well, and not losing weight - they show so clearly how a body can change without a difference in weight. May I suggest you make a post in the "Motivation" boards to the effect of "Not losing weight? Here's why...." It would catch the interest of people who are frustrated and really give them encouragement. Fantastic work!!!

    Yanicka - I am so pleased for you - you have worked so hard at NROL, but you also contribute so much to other people's journeys and struggles here on MFP.....
    How fantastic to see these latest photos - you have really transformed your body!!

    And you know what - those lines on your stomach - those are your badge of honour for being a amazing mom - if someone ever offered me a smooth tummy in exchange for the opportunity to be mom to my son I would just say "no deal"!!
