Thank you for all seven steps! I have the magazine subcribtions, BFL journal, and going to post goals on frig, bathroom, and wallet. My favorite idea is the dream board..... Nothing is too big or to small :)))

I am new to the site and just started today.

- I actually did a 12 week program with tremendous personal results about 2 years ago.

- I have to tune up again and am getting motivated to start another 12 week session.

- Of course to start on November 1st is a real challenge because of the Holidays coming up.

- But the reality is that there will always be a reason to postpone and just like Bill says it is not about perfection but progress that counts.

- I am planning out my meals and workouts for the week and I found your comments to be very inspirational.

- I am printing them out to read again and again.

- Something I also like to do is read something inspirational like this into a tape recorder and listen to it while I

am at the gym.

Thanks,

BackNine

I just learned about this program today. I am back in school, trying to gain more education and certifications before my family relocates South in about two years. My constant fear is that my size will keep me from interviewing favorably when we relocate, and I need to start a lifestyle change. I used to be a vegetarian, and didn't eat too many sweets. Now I consume them daily, and outgrowing my clothes. I have written down goals for my academic life, and am accomplishing them, but I never thought about writing down goals for my weight and body. Thanks for the lightbulb. I'm going to start implementing some of these ideas...the first to set a one month goal.

These are wonderful suggestions. I am in week 5 of the challange and have been doing some of these things. I keep a very simple journal of my daily diet and exercise, a plain notebook with the food journal on one side of the page and my exercise on the other. I also periodically write notes about my progress in the same notebook. Low tech, but it works for me! I love the idea of a dream board and can't wait to get started on that.

This is good stuff, People!

I keep a daily journal on my MYSPACE blogs for my 1600 friends to bear witness.

This was great information to know! I completed BFL last summer & lost around 30lbs, but never used weights (due to my disc disease), but I walked a lot. Though from not lifting weights, I lost muscle mass as well as body fat...big mistake!Since then I've stopped exercising all together & have gained back about 8lbs. I promised myself I wouldn't do this. Though, this time around I'm having trouble getting & staying motivated!! I will apply these tools. Thank you~~
