Thank God for Second Chances!
Well, I took those before photos for Challenge 8, the first of 2007 for me. WOW--did I ever screw things up in the past few months! I had no idea it was that bad, but boy I can sure see the work ahead of me! I am very excited about starting the new program and about reaching all the goals I am setting for this 12 weeks.
Best of luck to ALL who are new and old to BFL and Happy New Year!!!
2007: A Year of Changes
Well, 2006 is almost over! It has seen me go from my fittest and healthiest to where I am now, not where I'd like to be, but having followed BFL for the most part. Too many extra free meals and skipped workouts due to working overtime and vacationing a little much has taken its toll. I am a few pounds heavier and have lost some of my tone. In the past, I would have ballooned up 20-30 lbs and completely fallen off the wagon. Sure, I've got some extra padding, but that didn't happen this time thanks to BFL. I know that it's for life, so I've done what I could where I could and it's helped me only gain about 5 lbs and still be the same size-wise. That's where BFL makes a difference in your lifestyle. It IS for life and slip-ups will happen because life happens. Now, after the stress and overtime is over, it is time to pick-up and get back on track 100%.
Luckily, I always have very challenging goals to set for myself! 2007 goals include getting lean and toned! Cutting free day down to one free meal on free day and cutting that fat! I really want to be lean and toned more than I've ever been by May when we start hitting the parks and waterparks and later go on the big vacation of swimsuits and short-shorts! I KNOW I can because I've experienced and seen what BFL can do! I can't WAIT!!!!
