Birthday Planner Extrordinaire!

This weekend was my baby's 6th birthday party. I can't believe he's SIX!!! Anyhow, we had a Phinneas and Ferb themed party. Complete with Dr. Doofenshmirtz's "Birthday De-FUN-inator" that turned cupcakes into carrots and celery. :) The party must have been a s...

I've already posted that my scans were CLEAN!!! Super good news. The not-so-super-good-news is that they still think there are some thyroid cells in me (probably cancerous) that they

Terri, my dear friend...I read a couple of your blogs just now. I hope the doctors find the cells benign. When will you know? It has been an extremely rough, but growth inducing few months...lots of pain w/ lots of progress. (((love HUGS))) Ri

Hi, Teri!! I just joined your group and am looking forward to knowing you!! I have thyroid issues, too. Lots of tumors and am on synthroid. They have thought I have had cancer so many times but so far no. So grateful. I am in need of this Challenge. In a bad place and am hoping to follow through this time. Leslie

HI, Terri!! The last two or three days you've been on my mind. I hope all things are going well for you. Our little group seems to have fallen apart or taken a hiatus, at least for now. Please let us know how things are going. You continue to be in my prayers, my friend. Hope you've gotten your spunk and energy back! :)

I Am

I'm a mom of two wonderful boys, ages 9 and 5. After the birth of my first son, I started Body-For-Life. I went from a size 14 to an 8. I felt great about myself and couldn't imagine living any other way. I lived the BFL lifestyle for almost 3 years, until I got pregnant again. Somehow I let it slip and just the thought of starting was daunting. In February of 2010, I was a size 14 again, and I NEEDED to change.

I completed my 18-week transformation and had great progress. I felt soooo much better about myself. I went from trudging through a ho-hum life to actually LIVING LIFE!!! I regained my confidence and stamina and truly had a positive outlook on where my life is going. I didn't meet all my physical goals, but that will come with time. I lost 6 lbs, 4 inches in my waist, and went down to a comfortable size 12 (and 10s in some brands). I'm excited to see what the next challenge will bring for me!!!

My Favorite Charity

American Cancer Society

To me, Transformation Means

To become a healthier, happier version of myself. Of course, like most of us who start out, I want to lose weight and feel comfortable in my own skin; however, I know that as I start meeting goals and losing weight, other changes will start to occur. I have done BFL before and I know from experience that I will become happier and more confident. In return, I will have better relationships with those around me. I can't wait!!

My Goals

I will complete each of Bill’s assignments over the 18-week challenge to the best of my ability.
I will lose 12 pounds of fat
I will lose 5 inches at my waist
I will be a GREAT example for my children and will become more active in their lives
I will inspire one other person to begin the quest for a healthy life

My Intentions

I will exercise 6 days a week, according to BFL suggestions
I will eat 5-6 times per day, according to EFL principles
I will complete my BFL journal daily
