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.

To suceed you have to learn to trust!

When it came to "dieting" I could not stick with the diet. I was always falling off the wagon, feeling guilty and then trying it again...only to fail.
Frankly I just couldn't trust myself enough to follow through on the latest program promising major weight loss. So instead--I went with the flow and got fatter.

When I discovered BFL I really was fearful of failure. I had had a lot of practice.
What made the difference?
I decided to trust in the BFL program and its experts.

After a couple of challenges, success was flowing my way. Each day brought me closer to my goals and I started believing in myself. Essentially I was taught by this program how to trust myself to do the things I need to be a happy, healthy adult.

What have I learned?
Sometimes you have to put your trust in something else--before you can
take it back for yourself.


Day two of my Ultimate Transformation challenge. Cardio and ab work was remarkible. My knees gave me the strength to actually run on the treadmill.
My meals for the rest of the day are in a cooler at my desk at work. I am drinking a cup of green tea. After that--water, water, water.

I'm feeling on top of the world!
