Hey ,

I agree with , I would call EAS for any of your rules questions. I

can however, tell you that after completing 2 - 12 week challenges (1 this

year and 1 last year) that the rules for both years discouraged against the

use of digital photos. I recommend that you do NOT use a digital camera for

your before pictures. The reason for this is simple. EAS catches alot of

flack about the before and after pictures being fake. EAS wants you to have

negatives in hand if you are to be considered as a finalist. Digital photos

are very east to touch up. (yes, I know, for those of us that are computer

savy can digitally alter any photos). Just like Bill says, Keep It Simple.

Just take the pics with a decent regular camera, would hate to see one of our

members get dropped from consideration because you used the wrong type of

camera. After 12 weeks you'd want to shoot yourself if you used the wrong

camera. TRUST ME, I know, I was planning on completing at least 3 challenges

this year and due to my kidney/back problems I only finished the first one

and guess what kind of camera I took those before shots with????? Yep, you

got it, a digital camera, and even after going to a photo lab, the printed

copy that I had to send to EAS with my Challenge packet was grainy. Learn

from my mistakes, keep it simple, that is so so so true when it comes to your

training and specifically your diet!!!!!!!!

I was in Bill's Live Chat last night also, personally for someone with a

ton of specific questions I felt avoided. Don't get me wrong, the chat was

great for people just getting acquainted with BFL. But for the vets looking

for answers to questions so that we can better Success Coaches I found it

slow and self promoting. The key question I had was if EAS would be coming

out with a Myoplex that does not contain ASPARTAME, I have heard of several

people having health problems due to it. I had shrugged it off when I heard

of others having problems before but I feel my kidney problems may be linked

to it as well.

Best of luck to you , and WAY TO GO at work! Get them all pumped

up darlin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
