Using MFP to watch what I eat, and exercising 1-2 hours daily has done the trick for me. I started slowly with just walking, and now I'm running and lifting weights, and doing a core strengthening program.

I just signed up for my first 5k, it's in May!

I'm 5'8". I have three kids ages 5 and under, so it's been a ton of work but SO worth it!
