How long does it take?

People new to the BFL program are often discouraged in their second or third week. If you follow the BFL website guestbook...it seems a day doesn't go by that someone is lamenting their lack of progress. They complain they've lost just 2, 3 or 5 pounds. Many drop out and eagerly toss this program into a growing heap of failed diets, quick weight loss schemes and broken self-promises. Sadly they often begin the search for yet another "get thin quick" scheme.

How long should it take to transform your body on the Body For Life Program?

Bill Phillips, the author of the best selling book, Body For Life might say instantainously. In his words...
"Change your mind...change your body."

When we do change our mind or open our mind to new ideas and processes and begin to follow thru with our self-promises change is inevitable.

Some lucky practicioners of BFL see their body transform each and every
day.

Most of us begin to see changes after a month or two of starting the program.
Some of these changes include a lifting of spirits, a sense of empowerment....a sense of mastery over our bodies. And they often times begin before the first losses are recorded on a scale or body fat calipers.

Each small victory is a stepping stone along the path to a happier and healthier
life. When these victories are combined they become a powerful force that will keep us moving forward.

Lets face it... obstacles present themselves in our day-to-day lives. A
bad day at work, a bad day at home....an overdue bill, car trouble...sickness
and death.
If we build a strong body--I am convinced it clears the way for a healthy
mind and spirit and the power to meet obstacles and overcome them.

That's one of the beautiful things about the BFL program.
If you work it--it delivers so much more than weight loss...and an improved
appearance.

How long does it take to transform? The answer is simple. It can take a
split second....or it can take forever. The time it takes...is up
to each of us.
