Hi

Thank Mari, you are right I have to keep self promises. I was reading

that in my success journal. I hope everyone that can afford it gets

it because there is an encouraging word from Bill each day that helps

me so much. It took me a long time to get it because I was printing

everything from the website but I'm very glad I did. Well everyone

another week almost completed! Yaaa!! Progression not Perfection. I

met another person in the gym this week who is doing the program!! A

friend and I did the 6 week body makeover 4 years ago. I lost 41

pounds in 12 weeks and she lost 45 in 6 months. We both gained all

the weight back because it was too restrictive (no salt, no oil, no

sugar) So after trying to do it again over the 4 years I realized

that it's just too restrictive. I've been doing BFL for about 28

weeks now and I've never done anything this long before. I just love

it. I'm not a slave to the scale anymore which has helped me be more

relaxed. So of course I'm trying to persuade her to get on board. I

refuse to work hard again and gain all the weight back. I have close

in my closest from 4 years ago that still have the tags on them that

I was never able to wear. No more fad diets, no more letting the

scale determined how I feel about myself, etc. This journey has

definitely been more mental for me in the beginning. I can't see

doing anything else, I told her that I'd given all my other diet

books away because I have found the One! I'm 218.5, 5'8 and a size 14

due to this plan. Before when I was this weight I was a size 18/20!

So muscle makes a difference! For some reason I haven't lost a lot of

pounds but I've lost inches. The first challenge I started to give up

but I had committed to 12 weeks and my clothes were getting looser.

So BFL Rocks!
