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.

Reaching for the stars and thinking large....

I am working hard setting my goals for this, my Ultimate 12 Week BFL Challenge. Today is day 3!
This time around I am reaching for the stars and thinking large.

My most fantastic goal involves Oprah. Many of you have probably seen some of our Champions on her program in recent years. The most recent to appear was Kelly Adair on a program focusing on transformations. During that program, for various reasons Kelly wasn't allowed to mention the Body For Life program.

My goal is to change that, with a little help from my BFL friends.
( before unveiling my goal I have a bit of a disclaimer here folks...this is my idea. nobody suggested this...I take full responsibility for this idea...good or bad!)
Wouldn't it be amazing if we could mount a successful grassroots campaign to convince Oprah's producers to have a BFL Show. A full hour focusing on this remarkable program and the transformations we see happen on a daily basis?

It is my dream to fill her audience with BFL'ers. Fill her interview guest panel with the EAS Lifetime achievement Candidates listed here on the BFL website. To educate hundreds of thousands of viewers about the sustainability of this program.
Could you imagine highlighting their Before, After and After photos and have each of them talk about how their lives have changed? How their lives grow richer everyday?

Topics? Support systems, resistance training, proper nutrition and supplimentation? Spiritual. mental and physical growth? The many payoffs of living our lives and working out bodies in the way they were intended?
(Frankly a week of shows wouldn't be enough to share the magic of this program...but I'd be happy with just one show.)

If I were a producer I would do what ever it took to put together such a powerful show.

Now--if you think this is a worthwhile project... here is where you, my BFL Buddies come in. If each and everyone of us newbies and long time BFL'er wrote letters, sent tapes, and signed onto her website each day for the next 12 weeks and asked for a show focusing on the BFL program...its possible one of those producers might want to run with this idea. I know we could fill the audience. I know we could convince our Life time achievement winners to be there...

So what do you think? Would you be willing to sign on during the next 80 days and mount a campaign to convince Oprah's producers to dedicate a show to this program that has changed so many of our lives?
