Yup.

Wow! That is an amazing transformation! You should be proud :)

My mindset. Once I came to the realization that getting to my goal weight isn't going to happen overnight, and that I don't have to cut out the foods I love (just stop eating so damn much of it) then that's when everything else fell into place.

Reading the success stories on mfp keeps me motivated. If they can do it, so can I (and you)!

Quiet mornings My son's smile Good music Dancing Cute guys Genuinely kind and empathetic people

I loved watching the box!

Britney Spears Hit Me baby one more time That was my *kitten* and This is How We Do It by Montell Jordan

I couldn't agree more.

I never heard of that workout before. Great idea!

Fitness blender is awesome! I love their HIIT workouts. Even though it is hard to believe for some, there are people out there that do not have daily access to a computer. I think running (even running in place if the safety of the neighborhood is an issue), jumping jacks, push-ups, and a whole host of body exercises are…

Amazing progress!

Hip thrusts. You can do these with or without weights. http://bretcontreras.com/a-squat-devotee-no-more/

I say everything in moderation is key. It is unrealistic to cut out sugar or added sugar from your diet 100% (as you have already found out). If you just have to have that snickers bar, pre-log it, and plan your meals around it. My cravings are usually chocolate chip cookies. If I am seriously craving them, then I'll log…

Hip thrusts!! Squats are always a go-to to build glutes, but I have found hip thrusts, to be more effective. Here is a link that was very helpful for me http://bretcontreras.com/tag/hip-thrust/ And this one http://bretcontreras.com/a-squat-devotee-no-more/

Great job!

"Only 26 lbs"?? That is a big accomplishment, don't minimize it. Hell, losing 5 lbs ain't easy. Amazing progress and keep up the good work :)

Amazing! I am also losing the baby weight, and it is always motivating to hear stories like yours. Wonderful job :)

Outstanding progress! I loooove what your ticker says. The light of God is definitely shining through you, especially in that last picture. You are such an inspiration :)

Wow! It does pay to get it together! Amazing progress in such a short amount of time. You have a great attitude that will take you so far. Keep on keepin' on :)

I had a similar experience. She said "Size 18?" and I was so offended. I got to the dressing room and it just about fit perfectly. Talk about motivation! The success stories I read yesterday in the "Pictures only before and after" post motivates me today

Haha! The visual is too funny!

When you break the bed and sex had nothing to do with it.

Real Housewives of Atlanta and Love and Hip-Hop Atlanta. Can't wait until LHHA comes back!

That's a great idea! I always want to buy a goal size 6 or 8 but when I get to the store I'm always like, "I'm not paying for that!!" Goodwill is doable. Or Plato's Closet.

Wow. Just wow.

Congratulations on your weight loss!

Great job!

That was my reaction as well! Now that's dedication. Very inspiring :)

Amazing! You give me hope that I'll get my booty back haha!
