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.

Independence Day....

On the face of it...this Holiday represents so much for our Country and its people. Freedom is the single most important item on the list of what we hold dear as American Citizens.
As you watch your hometown parade and salute with the passing of the color guard I am sure you too are feeling the pride of belonging to this great experiment called America.

Today I am relaxing and taking this birthright to heart. Examining my responsibilities as a citizen and those I owe myself.
From this day forward I will work to renew my obligations to:
1) my country
2) my family
3) myself.
In addition I am going to focus even more on my health and happiness knowing that by doing so I will make all three stronger.

If you haven't taken the BFL challenge please consider declaring your Independence today. Your independence for unhealthy crutches such as gluttony and sloth...and the long list of problems they create.

If you don't know where to begin, consider the Body for Life program ( www.bodyforlife.com)
Today is the last day to enter the 12 week ultimate fitness challenge. If you put your heart into it...you will never regret it! In three short months you will be healthier, happier and will wonder how you ever survived that old life.

Declare your Independence today---keep those self promises. A new life is yours for the taking!
