Introduction Text I am the mother of 6 girls and 1 baby boy ages 11, 10, 8, 6, 4, 3 and 8 mos. I lost 64lbs after baby number 6 thanks to a consistent workout schedule and counting calories with sparkpeople! Made it back into size one jeans! I maintained for one year before getting pregnant again. I am now working hard to lose the last 8 lbs of the weight I gained during my seventh pregnancy. No problem baby! I am encouraged knowing that I have done it before and I can do it again. I work out at home in the mornings before breakfast and then again in the early evenings. If I can make time to exercise, so can you!! Food. Ideas.. this is usually what I eat. Breakfast: 1C oatmeal with fruit OR egg whites and spinach OR 1C frosted mini wheats with NF milk and fruit. Lunch:Cottage cheese is my secret weapon. I eat 1/2 Cup with 1/4 cup of crushed pineapple or a handful of frozen raspberries. High in protein and low in calories PLUS it fills me up. I bake chicken breasts early in the week, package them separately in freezer bags then enjoy one with a V8 and a handful of salad greens when I want a different lunch. Smoked salmon with whole grain crackers is another lunch favorite. Dinners are a variety of proteins, vegetables and whole grains. Lots of water all the time. I lost my previous 64lbs while still allowing myself up to one ounce of Bakers semi-sweet chocolate each day! That way I never felt totally deprived. Apple slices and grapes are a great snack to help satisfy a sweet tooth. *Thin apple slices are awesome dipped in Greek yogurt! Try it!

I am going to lose the rest of this baby weight in 8-10 weeks. I plan to get back into my size one jeans pronto!!

Counting Calories Clean Eating Exercise 2 Hours per day, Six Days per week. 6 Cardio Days- 3Running Days 3 Kickboxing Days 3 Strength Days I also add in walking, yoga and pilates here and there. I am currently doing Insanity, running, walking and some Chalean in between. Running faster and lifting heavier to condense my workout time to 1.5hrs in the mornings.
