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.

Day 24...over the hump day!

Here it is already--the middle of week four.
Congratulations for hanging in there and honoring those self-promises. Pretty empowering isn't it?
With each new day that follows....from this day forward...together we will reach a new level of fitness and move one day closer to meeting our goals.

Today I'd like to revisit the matter of goals and how essential it is:
--to make them
--put them down on paper
--and say them out loud
Consider it your "Declaration of Fitness."

As you reach each goal on that list celebrate your accomplishment. Then...find a new goal to add to your list!

Tuesday I had the honor of sharing my BFL transformation as part of a Health and Fitness Class at a local University. It was a lot of fun and I hope that I inspired at least one of the students to make healthier lifestyle choices.

I pointed out how everyone in the classroom was in the process of transforming. We were either deteriorating or becoming new and improved. The direction of our transformation depended on the actions we took.
As I was wrapping up my presentation one of the students asked me if I had now reached all my goals.

I told him that my newest goal was to learn just how far a woman my age could transform her body, mind and spirit with the aid of exercise, balanced nutrition, supplimentation and the power mindset.
The next thing out of my mouth even shocked me!

I told the students (average age 21) that I (50 something) was thinking about training for a Natural Body Building Contest.
Wow! Me? A BB Contest?
Hey...anything is possible as long as we set our goals, write them down and say them out loud.

Today's topic?
Besides winning the BFL Million dollar Challenge what is your biggest goal?
