Body For Life

I've been contemplating whether or not I was going to tell people about this but I figured it would be a good idea. Steven and I started a new program called Body for Life. We did the exercise portion a bit last year but didn't follow the meals and everything real well. On Saturday night we finally decided it was time to change. We eat pretty healthy right now but we wanted to do better and be more committed. So, we committed to taking the Body for Life Challenge! We started on Monday and ordered all of our nutrition supplements and got all of our food for the week. We figured we wanted to look good for our triathlon in May. We won't be done with the challenge until June but it still gives us a good start. We are so excited and want everyone to know because we figured if people know, it'll give us more motivation to finish and do well. We took our "before" pictures and maybe after our program I'll post so you can see the difference (hopefully there will be one!). Anyway, if you're interested go to www.bodyforlife.com. It's so amazing to see the transformations people have undergone. I get on the website everyday just to stay motivated and am always blown away at the pictures. Here are a few (some are disgustingly buff but for the most part, they look amazing!):

I'm so excited to be doing this and I know it'll be a challenge but a good one. I've already learned so much about proper eating and exercising and trust me, I've read just about everything there is to read on Body-For-LIFE and their products. :o) It's nice because on Sunday we have a "free day" so we can eat whatever we want and we won't go crazy. And to top it off, there's one grand champion that gets $25000 and a bunch of other stuff and then 6 winners who get $10000 and the same good stuff. So we'll definitely try for that! We're competing individually and as a couple-WISH US LUCK!!

good luck! I think this sounds like fun! I really enjoyed doing the South Beach Diet with Chris, well, mostly enjoyed. (Minus the no sugar part) I learned so much about eating healthy!

I have a friend that recently suggested body for life. It worked for her and she has nothing but good things to say about it!

I wish I had the determination to do something like that- I just don't have the self-control ha ha. Good Luck guys! You'll do awesome!

I think that is great that you guys are doing that. David and I are actually just starting a program called P90X, pretty much the same thing just different program. I am so excited to see the results in the end. Good luck to you guys.
