After having my 3rd child I reached 170lbs..........

Hello!!! My name is Charla Cormier. I wanted to share my transformation story. After having my 3rd child I reached my heaviest 170lbs. I hated the way I felt and did not even want to go out with my husband because I felt very uncomfortable in my body. I got just fed up with feeling this way and decided and was determined to BREAK THIS OVER WEIGHT MOMMY MOLD. I entered myself in an NPC figure competition and I stepped on stage to compete just 9 months after having my baby I placed 6th out of 12 ladies; I was hooked! Fitness is my life now and I will NEVER look back! I am now a personal trainer, fitness model/ athlete/ spokesperson for the company All American EFX. Most people know me as the Kre-a-fem girl;) Take a look at my before and after pics! Thank you for reading my story! STOP BY MY PROFILE AND LETS BE FRIENDS. TAKE CARE~ CHARLA

Hi Kevin~
My advice to all the mothers out there that don't think it is possible to have a beautiful body after having babies would be..... IT IS POSSIBLE!!! you have to stop making excuses for why it is not possible and shoot for your goal and NEVER LOOK BACK until you have achieved it! There are NO EXCUSES!!!
Being a mother, I know just how hard it can be BUT you have a choice! It is up to "YOU" to do the work! Make a GOAL, not an EXCUSE......believe in yourself! It is possible to have a beautiful body and IT IS SO WORTH IT!

OMG - OMG You look wonderful Charla. You definatley take place on my inspiration board :) CONGRATULATIONS on a job well done. Just wondering how you managed everything to begin with - where did you start, what help did you get, were you an athletic person, all those small questions. I have my hands full with 4 children 5 and under so do not get much time to myself, but need to get rid of the fat mummy blues. If I can create a body half as good as yours I would be proud. Keep up the fabulous work :)
