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.

BFL Shower?

So, do you know a new mom or dad who has just begun BFL? How about a future bride or groom? Anyone about to graduate college student? Maybe a soldier serving overseas? Or maybe a birthday?
If you do--maybe you are looking for an idea for a unique celebration or shower or gift of thanks.

Here's an idea. How About a BFL shower?
Guests would be asked to bring a fitness gift. Maybe a pair of
dumbells. An exercise mat. A box of myoplex bars. Myoplex shakes. A gift certificate for a new bikini. Bill Phillip's Eating for Life book. Or how about a new bag a safety razors and some high quality fake tanning products?


Now I grant you it would be important figure out before hand whether the "giftee" were serious about their new BFL lifestyle. Or that he or she had actually begun the program because they want to. (You'd hate to send the wrong message or hurt someones feelings.)
But I really couldn't think of a better way to start someone off on the right foot as they jump onto the path to earn their Body for Life.
The party itself could have a healthy lifestyles theme. Food of course could fit the 40/40/20 ratios of the BFL eating plan.
All the attendees could announce their goals and if they'd like share their self-promises.

What are your ideas for a BODY FOR LIFE shower?

I must admit that this 'shower' idea is more for the ladies than for us men.

(Men don't shower together too often. Please, Michelle, do keep it clean ... No pun intended.)

But I think it a wonderful idea to offer such gifts to those we care about and to support those who are serious about fitness.
