Just a little background information on me & my BFL journey!...
I had first heard of the bfl when Bill Phillips first appeared on Oprah (many years ago). One of my friends bought me the book for my birthday and I had attempted the program multiple times up until Jan '03 when I really buckled down and completed the challenge. I lost about 15 lbs and many inches. I looked and felt wonderful. Then in March 2003, I met the man that is now my husband, we got married, got pregnant, had a miscarriage... let's just say that I let life get in the way and I stopped working out and eating right. I ate ANYthing and EVERYthing that my little heart desired. I quickly gained back all the weight that I had lost PLUS an additional 70 lbs! I have been carrying around this extra weight for two years now. I am ready to rid myself of this weight and dreadful feeling that I get, every day, by looking in the mirror. I will finish this program with flying colors!

My first post here. Not sure what to write yet. I did not work out today nor have I eatin on plan. Might as well chaulk it up to a free day!! My 2 sisters, 2 nieces and nephew are coming to visit from Michigan on Monday (through Friday). I have been super busy with cleaning the house and making plans to have everything ready when they arrive. I CANNOT wait to see them! It's been a year since I've last seen them.
I started my BFL Challenge on 18 Jul 05! Here are my goals for this Challenge:
1. I will complete my workouts in the morning before work.
2. I will eat 5-6 meals a day (prepared from home or at least store bought, ex: yogurt, cottage cheese).
3. I will enjoy one free day a week.
4. I will do at least 8 push ups by 20 Oct 05 (next time I have to PT test)!
5. I will decrease my run time by 2 minutes by 20 Oct 05! Right now it's 19:04 for 1.5 mile run.
6. I will max out my sit ups (47) by 20 Oct 05!
7. I will post my measurements (every 4 weeks) on Sunday on the Body-for-LIFE tracker.
8. I will be in bed by 9:30 every night (except Saturdays!! b/c my free day will be on Sundays) :-)
NOTE: I quit smoking 25 Oct 05. Seems like I went right to fast food after that. I was eating it about 2-3 times a DAY! About a month ago I realized how much money was being wasted on fast food and decided to quit that as well. Now I am trying to cure my chocolate addiction. If I can master that I will have it made! ;-)
