This morning the #Mamavation Mom Finalists were announced and I’m so excited to be a part of an amazing group!!

Rachel – @Rachhabs - Wow what an amazing lady! I saw her posting about her results so far since June (which you have to see) just mind blowing!! You can find her blogging at To Hab & To Hold.

Johnna – @Johnna_r_t - Johna’s reason for applying to be a #mamavation mom is the reason so many mom’s start their new healthy lifestyle: Her Children & Grandchildren!

Krista – @kristalswan - I actually know Krista personally as we both are oregonians! She is a wonder woman full of spunk and energy! I had totally missed her application so I was excited to see her as a finalist! You can find her blogging at Mostly Mommyhood.

Tina – @madhattermom - Last but definitely not least is my friend Tina! I saw her put up her video and I was so excited! I’m thrilled to have such a great person right by my side competing with me! You can find her blogging at Mad Hatter Mom.

My #Mamamvation Application

If you missed it here is my application video:

Starting Point!

Weight: 185.4 lbs
Neck: 14.25 inches
Waist: 37.25
Hips: 43.75
Thigh: 22.5
Arm: 12.25

I’ve lost 4 inches & about 2.5 pounds in the last 2 months since the end of the #mamavation #2weekchallenge. It’s been a slow battle to get pounds off, but the inches are still going down.

I got to see someone I hadn’t seen in about a month and she said I’m smaller. After staring at a scale that has been just bouncing up and down on the same 2 pounds this was good to hear that I’m still making progress. And seeing the inches off I know that I really am still making progress.

Healthy Mom = Healthy Family - That is my life motto and I hope to encourage it to be yours too. January 2011 I made the decision to lose weight and lost 80+ pounds. I saw my boys start getting active with me and I realized I wasn't only changing my life but also my boys.
