This mom of four used her husband's deployment as an opportunity to surprise him by losing over 40 pounds to completely transform her body. ► Read Ashley Moore's full transformation story: https://bbcom.me/3xVeEh9 ► Subscribe: http://bit.ly/2DK5lGD Ashley Moore is a nurse, military wife, and mother of four. When her kids were little, she poured her time and energy into them, which left very little time for herself. A chronic stress eater who assumed cardio was the only option to lose weight (https://bbcom.me/3b8fwFo), Ashley avoided getting serious about health for a long time. Having failed to lose the weight of her last two pregnancies, Ashley used her husband's 20-week deployment as motivation to finally make a change. Discovering a love of lifting (https://bbcom.me/3vMFvKw) and a much healthier approach to food, she surprised her husband on his return by showing up to greet him smaller and more fit than the day they were married. Here is Ashley's story. If you want to share your success story with us to be considered for publication, send an email to transformations@bodybuilding.com. – H.E. I got married just a few years after high school, and we started a family. Right now, my kids are 13, 11, 8, and 6, but they were all little at the same time. I gained about 50 pounds with every pregnancy, but I lost it pretty well after the first two. After my third pregnancy, I never lost the weight. Then, it segued right into the fourth one. I got to a point where I was actually up to about 215 pounds. I was pretty unhappy with my body, unhappy with the way I felt. I had a lot of depression, anxiety, and stress. But, obviously, my kids were still relying on me, and it was hard. | Ashley's Top 5 Transformation Tips | 1. Decide That You're Worth It I had to decide that I was worthy of the time, money, and effort necessary to make a change. I had to really shift my thinking, and it's been an interesting process. There have been many times when I struggled with loving my body or loving myself. I love who I am now in every way: mentally, spiritually, physically. I have absolutely changed, and I love it and embrace it. Allowing your mind to shift and recognize that you are worthy is a beautiful thing. 2. Find Focus in Fitness While my husband was gone, I was taking care of my four kids, the yard, the house—I had so many things going on. I needed something else to focus on during that time. By making health and fitness a priority, I could focus on just what I was eating and what I needed to do to hit my goal. I could go work out and meal prep (https://bbcom.me/2R0doZq) healthy meals. Focusing on my health helped me deal with all the stress and other things that sometimes felt piled on me. 3. Don't Be Afraid of Help If you need help starting out, get a personal trainer (https://bbcom.me/2Q2isfA)! Find somebody to help who knows this stuff inside and out, what works and what doesn't. There's so much conflicting information out there. No carbs? Yes carbs? I never could figure it out. My trainer helped me make the right changes and dial in my macros to what my body needed. It worked out beautifully for me. 4. Do It for You, to Be There for Them We give as mothers and as spouses. We give and we give and we give. There comes a point when you have to take care of yourself. It's harder to be useful and helpful to other people if you don't fill your own cup first. 5. Set New Goals I think having goals (https://bbcom.me/3nXEJYl) is 100 percent necessary. Hitting little personal records here and there can help keep you going, but having something big to drive me out of my comfort zone has been essential for me. For example, my trainer and I are working toward getting me ready to do a figure competition (https://bbcom.me/3etPLS2). Stepping onstage is something that intimidates me a lot, but I think that is a good thing. I think it's definitely going to grow me in a lot of ways, and even the prep leading up to it is going to help me grow.

Sharon Wigger has faced teenage motherhood, comfort eating, family tragedy, and humiliation, yet still found a way to triumph. Now, she's ready to help others do the same. Read Sharon Wigger's Body Transformation Story ► http://bbcom.me/2DHJwWD Premium Fitness Plans ► http://bbcom.me/2DJDULP Bodybuilding.com Signature Supplements ► http://bbcom.me/2DHOoLB Sharon Wigger had an eating disorder as a teen, but two successive pregnancies after high school left her overweight, not underweight, and feeling depressed. As a 21-year-old, her 5-foot-3-inch frame was carrying around 200 pounds at 48 percent body fat. Nothing happens overnight, but the turning point came in 2015, when she entered a Bodybuilding.com transformation contest. Eventually, at age 26, she got down to 113 pounds and 11-percent body fat. If you're reading this, you might be looking for a turning point yourself. Wigger's personal tips, techniques, and inspiring anecdotes might be just the guidance you need to transform in 2018. | Why Did You Decide To Transform? | In high school, I was very fit. Before that, in junior high, I even played on the boys' football and basketball teams. Then, I got away from sports and into a battle with an eating disorder. I developed this mindset that any pant size above a 6 was unacceptable to me. I'd do just about anything to stay slim. A year and a half after I graduated, I had my first son and my weight skyrocketed to 200 pounds. I was a single teenage mother with no friends and a bad case of postpartum depression. I simply didn't care about my health or my weight anymore. At that time, I was working the overnight shift as a patient access representative at a local hospital. One night, I went to Taco Bell and bought about $20 worth of food and snacked on it all night long. I was getting ready to eat yet another burrito when I overheard a couple of nurses laughing and joking about the way I looked. At first, I was really hurt, but deep down I knew I needed to change. I had been using food to comfort myself during my pregnancy, and it had gotten out of hand. A moment later, I surprised and inspired myself by thinking, "Sharon, you can do this. You know what you're doing is wrong—and you know you can change it. Put the food down and let's do this." So, I started my journey.
