Assignment #16 - Elevating Your Nutritional Wisdom

I love this assignment. I joined Chris Winters group this 18 week challenge to specifically focus on this area and it has been such a blessing for me in my nutritional growth. When you take pictures of everything you eat you see the color in the food...or lack of it...and it causes you to add more...you want it to look better in the picture and you eat much more in the way of fruits and vegetables. This will carry me forward even without taking p...

Assignment #15- Feel the Fear and Do it Anyway

One fear I have already overcome in this 18 week challenge was posting a picture of me in a 2 piece. I don't wear one in public why on earth would I post it in such a public format? And being in the AP group where it was originally required to do so weekly was just something I  dreaded. I thought maybe this might help me to take it a step further. Through this process it has helped me accept my body better. A fear I am confron...

Assignment #14- Transforming Beliefs

  1)      Is there a core belief you held before you began this process that’s transforming as a result of the work you’ve done so far?  Since I was in my latter years in high school I have viewed alcohol drinking in a positive light. My parents divorced between my 7-8th grade years…my mother is a non drinker…my father chose a different path when he entered the Air Force. He met someone...

Assignment #13- The Power of Giving

I really understand and have been a part of this concept of giving...not expecting anything in return. I don't think there is any greater joy than that. Up until a couple of years ago my list of volunteer activity consumed all of my spare time outside of my family time, but all was done with our town community...our school community...and our church community in mind. Over time these opportunities changed and at this point in time my giving of my...

Assignment #11 - Giving Up the Fight

I am not sure why this particular assignment gives me fits but it does...I have been stewing over this for an few weeks now and just have to get 'er done. Something in me always makes me feel that for a truly amazing transformation...alcohol has to be eliminated permanently...not just occasionally and at this time it is not something I am willing to do. That is my truth. What I want from this transformation is continued health through my foo...

Assignment #10 - Reflect and Review

Where I stand? I stand healthier and stronger and more energetic than I did a year ago. The eating and exercise is a lifestyle now...I can occasionally skip a workout or occasionally eat off plan but the balance is perfect for me for the rest of my life.  My purpose is to continue to let God work through me however He chooses...loving my family and friends, giving my time where I can to church and community and to continue to be a part ...

Assignment #9 - The Willingness to Learn

This assignment is to invest a little time in learning from others here at the site. I have tried to do this as daily as possible (or several times a day!!!) for the last year. I really enjoy clicking on random threads or blogs to see what surprise may lie within...a chance to make a new friend or to be of support to someone with a question or celebrating victories or struggling with issues you may struggle with too.When I first ca...

Assignment #8 - Transforming Your Lowest Level Habit

Boy...this assignment I struggled with the first time I did it and didn't answer it the way I am going to now that is for sure. Having been in transformation for over a year I am so much more aware of everything  that goes in my body and why I am putting it in there. The food aspect of this program...nutrient dense non processed foods in the right combinations is firmly in my grasp...I have taken it a step further in participating ...

Assignment #7 - The Power of Right Environments

At the end of assignment 7 Bill asks these 2 questions:Can you identify an "environmental change" which you've made so far which has helped you with your progress? Can you identify another environmental change which you can make today which will further support your success???Since I have been transforming here for almost a year many changes have already occurred, but my newest change has been to "always" keep the ingredients ...

Assignment #6 - Transforming What You See

Now it's time to talk about the power of transforming what you see. Bill says " by focusing on progress - by seeing what is going right- we can stay positive, confident and motivated...seeing progress even helps us achieve better results faster."... "Focus on progress"..."Forget about perfection. "Bill asks us to identify at least 2 signs of progress you have made so far and post them at the assignment site. The...

Assignment #5 - The Power of Positive Pressure

I completed my first official challenge from July 21, 2008- November 23, 2008. I was completely focused and motivated by the timelines and deadlines. To specify a goal by a certain date and visualize that for 18 weeks is so powerful...it is fuel for the challenge. Throw in the Tennessee Champions weekend...training for the Detroit half marathon too...and there are more incentives and rewards. I lost more than I had expected and gained Level II st...

Assignment #4- Transformation Purpose

When I ran across this site a year ago I was fed up with myself...fed up with running...it wasn't fun anymore...it didn't feel good..and I was starting to not care about my weight, what I was eating, how much I was eating and how much wine I was drinking.I was familiar with Bill Phillips...had bought the Body for Life book around the time I started running in 1999 I think it was...my friend Jill ...who is part of Transformation ..had recommended ...

Assignment #1A

To read my words around my pictures you will have to look at this in my photos. This picture came out small here.  Off to a great start...having been through a challenge before I wondered what I might say about my before pictures this time, but it is so true that we never stop growing and learning. My thoughts are much more positive than they were July 08...but still seem to have a few areas to work on.  My greatest hope is&nb...
