I'm at an age when many women believe their best years are behind them. I hope to convince my "Sisters" that many more of those "best years" are waiting to be lived! I'm living proof it is never to late to live them. Not to long ago I weighed nearly 200 pounds and was being treated for a long list of obesity related medical problems. Thankfully there came a point in my life when I decided to keep my self promises. When I did...my life opened to a world of possibilities.

Helicopter's coming!

If you commit, really commit to the BFL program and enter an official challenge these are the things I believe you must do to succeed.

1)You must believe in the program.
2)You must believe in the power of yourself.
3)You must believe that the helipcopter will be coming to your house in December.


I remember last year after my first challenge. I was so into it. Even thought I wasn't an expert in the program and struggled to learn proper form and nutrition I had such fantastic results. The results were so great--more than I had ever imagined possible...I truely believed that I would be named among the 2003 EAS/BFL Champions.

Confession time here. Every time the phone rang I thought it would be THE CALL from Porter Freeman.
Everytime a helicopter few over our tiny town in Northern Minnesota I knew that they were coming to my house to deliver the exciting news.


Well I didn't win that challenge. BUT I did win a headstart to my new healthy, happier me. Today I have re-invented myself. I was never an athlete. Period. I never did anything I didn't have to. I ate anything I wanted to.
Where did that get me? I'll tell you where. Pushing nearly 200 pounds and a step away from the rocking chair...with the coffin not to far behind.

Today, I am exercising daily, I am eating the foods my body needs to build itself into a strong healthy machine.
I have never been happier.

LIFE IS GOOD. No, LIFE IS GREAT!

In the past when I read how other BFL'ers said winning the contest was no longer important to them...that they had already won so much more...I didn't understand them.

Today I do!

But I know that it is essential to follow my theory at the top of this blog entry to maintain my BFL success. I continue to believe that I will win. I continue to believe that I will get that phone call and those copters will be landing near my home sometime in December.

Hey--that's part of the fun and visualization we need to mount a successful BFL transformation.

Now I'd like to share my answer to question #2 in my packet mailed for my just completed challenge #four.

2) How are you planning to help educate others on health, fitness and living a healthy active lifestyle?

As a television news anchor my ongoing transformation has become a public affair. I’ve shared my transformation with my audience during a series of reports on healthy lifestyles. I continue to share my EAS/BFL Transformation as a guest lecturer at community health events. I actively seek new opportunities to share this program and offer support and encouragement to all who are willing to commit to a healthier lifestyle by adopting a regiment of exercise, balanced nutrition and proper supplementation.

By the way--I begin challenge #5 on Saturday! I will earn my rockstar arms and my six pack abs!
