I am 26 and a mother to 5 (2 biological) my 3 step kids are with me and my husband full time there mother passed away about 2 years ago. I have an amazing family and so proud. As a teenager my weight always fluctuated, by senior year in high school i had dropped a lot of weight and didn't realize it. I was diagnosed with mono was super skinny by that time and did not look healthy. I got married at 21 and got a little too comfortable and gained about 40 lbs and then got pregnant with our daughter the day i delivered my beautiful 9lb baby i was 218lbs. I divorced my now ex-husband about 1+ year ago when my daughter was 18 months after all the lies abuse and cheating
i found myself again and started losing weight. I got down to about 160lbs (i'm 5'7) and i felt good about myself but not great. I started dating a close friend of mine and he asked me to marry him only 3 months after my divorce was final but we were so in love and i said "yes". One month to the day of our engagement I found out I was pregnant. I then blew up again to 220lbs. (ughhhh) I delivered my angel about 4 months ago via repeat c-section and through strict dieting and the wonderful hcg diet I am down to 162 today and still have more weight to drop i am on my second round for another 2 1/2 weeks. After all the weight fluctuation and two beautiful girls and breast feeding i am left with stretch marks skin and NOT 26 year old boobs. I am a momma tiger who has earned her stripes and as proud of being a mom as i am i want my stripes gone. So I have been driving my husband crazy always talking about my body and disagreeing every time he says I am perfect i figured i would join and drive you all crazy :) kidding. I am super excited and cant wait to play at the beach with my kids or feel comfortable to join my husband in a nice bath or to put clothes on and love the way it looks.
