Body For Life Book

So I know that alot of the before and after shots in the body for life book are pretty unbeleivable. However, they are REAL people. I have such a hard time telling people that the pictures are not photoshopped in anyway to make these people look slimmer and more muscular. It's a losing battle trying to convince people.

I love the Eating For Life book by the way. I highly suggest you pick it up. It gives lots and lots of great recipe ideas that are actually yummy to eat. It's a bit pricey, but it's worth it.

Body For Life Tracker

Since I am starting a four month Body For Life Challenge tomorrow, I a started an account with the body for life tracker website. This is an awesome website that has hundreds of other body for lifers who have profile pages showing their measurements, before and after pictures, progress pictures, what their goals our, their journal entries, etc. I'm totally excited about the whole thing.

Still going strong

So I have been doing the Body For Life workouts for awhile now and I am still going strong. I feel ALOT healthier. I have decided to DITCH the scale and only bring it out once every two weeks. I should not be measuring my progress by what that stupid old scale says. The number on the scale is not everything. I will take progress pictures in a few weeks so we can SEE what progress I have made.


Well, I am off to go eat my breakfast of two eggs and some diced potatos. Mmmmm! More later!

Swigg

I really gotta give it up for this girl. Swigg has got it going on when it comes to fitness and nutrtional information. Check her site out at http://www.skwigg.com/. I have gotten lots of meal ideas and tips on what to do and what NOT to do to get discouraged. You should check her out for a great fitness read. She is in mega awesome shape! She knows lots of useful information about weight lifting and the Body For Life Plan as well as information on creatine and supplements.

What is it about Hamburger Helper?

What is it abot Hamburger Helper that causes it to sit in your stomach like a giant ball of greese and fat, causing you to want to ralph? It's probably because it IS a big ball of greese and fat LOL

I made myself some of the cheeseburger maccaroni kind tonight it. UGH. Not again for awhile. Tomorrow I am starting the eat clean thing. I think my stomach will thank me for it. There will be less bloat and ralph feelings happening ;) I've actually read that some foods just make you LOOK bloated more than others. Swigg has a good section on her blog about what foods to eat if you want to avoid that bloated look and feel. Everyone should go check it out man.
