I'm pretty great! :)

Loveing #10. I'm gonna have to hit it hard! I'm 1 pound from my goal but think I want to get to 145 just to have a little wiggle room!

You are so amazing!! Thanks for sharing this!

Doing #10 sucked big time, I was pretty crabby. But I was glad I did. The awesome thing is, we can always go back to basics and take off a few more pounds if we want to. I may do that to get back down to 145 again - not sure! Kinda liking where I'm at right now.

Good luck!

I just feel really big.

I'm guessing I carried Tatum more in my back, and Nugget (we really need to stop fighting over names LOL) is way out front, I am really "BIG" but I know it's from my ligaments being stretched and not having time to recover. It's hot, I'm super hormonal, I'm guessing with all the extra boy hormones, I'm not sure, but I'm pretty psychotic some days. And, I kind of have these weird "manic" episodes where I get really angry and lash out which is NOT my personality at all.

Hubby and I are trying to figure out if we want to have kids or not. Now that I'm at my dream weight, I'm feeling pretty selfish and not sure I want to feel big again, which I'm sure is what pregnancy would make me feel like. That's certainly not the deciding factor, but I won't lie and say it's not on my mind. Decisions, decisions!

Hormones suck. Hopefully you get past this weird stage soon!

You look so good! Your advice was wonderful.....I have had a bad week and realize that my habits are creeping. Though I haven't gained weight I know I made very many poor choices. I want to be able to post pics but can't figure it out.

Keep up the good work and stay focused so you can maintain your healthy lifestyle. Good luck and thanks again for sharing.

Thanks!! I make poor choices sometimes too. But every morning I remember that it's a new day and I reset myself. We can do this!!

Posting pics was so confusing at first. You need to load them to your profile. Then open two windows. One window is a new post. The other window is the pics in your profile. Copy them from your profile page to your new post.

Truly a stunning transformation!!!! Great advice- I especially like that in maintenence you gave yourself a number that kicks in the back to basics approach. I will be borrowing that suggestion when the time comes. Congrats and good luck with your races!
