You’re so beautiful, Maria. Loved all the pictures of you. Can’t wait to meet you in Ottawa in August. You are so going to win this, and I’m going to be so proud of you when you’re announced the winner! Also? Can’t wait to hear about all the tips you will share with us, because Lord knows I need help, too! I’ve been dieting my entire life and it got a whole lot harder to lose weight after having kids!

I’ve been voting for you.

And not to get all psychological on you (not least of all b/c I’m no psychologist), but you have to love yourself regardless of the outside package. Seriously. I’ve been working out for over a year now, and at first it was to lose weight. But now it is about feeling awesome about myself. About feeling like I am worth it! You really won’t succeed if you don’t love yourself enough to feel like all the work is worth it.

But thanks for saying what so many of us have thought at some point in our lives.

I’ve been voting for you! You TOTALLY deserve this. I agree with the previous poster that you need to also work on feeling good about yourself from the inside! But I think you’re heading in that direction. Continuing to love your posts!

You are gorgeous, inside and out and I know how much you want this so I am voting every day. You can most certainly find that “ME” again my friend…
