Life is about CREATING yourself.

You have the power to shape yourself into anything you so desire. Keep the end goal in sight — a fitter, healthier you.

It’s inevitable, if you REALLY believe.

The first was that I was reminded about how important it is to be healthy.  One of my customers had a stroke at age 41.  That is my sister’s age.  Our grandfather died of a stroke in his 50’s.  It was a good reminder as to why I am doing Body for Life.

The second was that another customer complimented both me and SB.  I was walking down a hallway and asked how she was doing seeing a brace on her leg.  She replied, that it was not as good and SB and I were doing.

Weird to think that a week in, I am already seeing results.  I have a shirt that is by a compny known for making their sizes small.  Well this shirt is a 2X (I almost cried when it fit right in the dressing room, the 1X was a little too tight in the arms and bust area.) , but today when I wore it, it was almost floating off of me it seemed.  YAY!!

Body for Life seems to be working very well for SilverBlue (SB).  I am joining him in this quest for a healthier fitter life style.   Excercise I am fine with.  In fact, it feels good.

It is the eating 6 times a day that is getting me.  I just don’t have time at work usually and then at home, I sometimes let the time get away from me.   I know it is something that SB has to put some thought into also.  He is sometimes worse than me about remembering to eat.

I do wonder if walking up and down the stairs for 3 loads of laundry counts as weight lifting.  Clothes are alot heavier than you would think.

SB made a soup tonight that really surprised me.  It had barley which is kind of like rice, and diced and stewed tomatoes.  Any one who knows me, know I do not eat tomatoes unless they are spaghetti sauce or manwich.   I picked around the bigger pieces and the little bits of tomato that I got really added something to the flavor.

This is the home of the Body For Life Journey blog. Right now, Silver Blue and Tink are your hosts, but we’re open to having other authors as others may join us in our life-altering course.

Wish us luck, and drop back by for updates on how we’re doing!
