Introduction Text Hello Sparkpeople! I'm 35 years old and live in Anaheim Ca. Im a very busy mom to 5 boys. Donavan 13, Seth 12, Abraham 7, Noah 6, and Sammy 3. Each of my pregnancies I gained 50-60 pounds. I joined spark after the birth of my 4th son and it was a great tool to lose the weight. So after the birth of my last son I have been on here trying to lose what I gained with him. The weight has been very slow to come off. But I'm getting very close to my goal weight. After that I hope to tone and gain muscle! This isn't a diet for me, its a lifestyle and I'm happy to have Spark and the support from other sparkers! I no longer want to be skinny! I wanna be strong, fit and healthy!

I want to get super healthy for my family! I try to workout everyday. I'm also watching my salt, and fat intake. I've been eating lots of fruits & veggies. I make sure to get enough protein. I already feel better. I've never done a rewards system but I'm going to try it- At 145 lbs_ I'm going to go on a Lush shopping spree. At 140 lbs- I'm going to get my teeth whitened. At 135 lbs I'm going to get a new outfit and a professional photo shoot with my family!

~1 hr of cardio 5-6x's a week. ~No more than 1,800mg of sodium daily ~Eat Healthy ~Strength Training x 4 days a week ~Come to Sparkpeople everyday! ~Hula Hoop, Ride bikes, rollerskate, and run around with the kids as much as possible ~I measure all my food with a digital scale.

I live in Anaheim, I am married to an awesome man who supports me fully. I have 5 boys Donavan 13, Seth 12, Abraham 7, Noah 5 and Sam 3. The older boys are interested in eating healthy and walk with us. I'm very lucky that all my boys love eating fruits and veggies.
