    three weeks AF

    Hi everyone,

    Just wanted to say Happy New Year to all, I managed to get through Christmas, New Year and my brother in Laws birthday party with no AF. I bought a book called "Body for Life" for my husband for Christmas and I think that I will give the 12 week challenge a go. If you go to Body-for-LIFE there are before and after photos of past champions that are just mind blowing after 12 weeks. There are a few quotations from past champions in the book that I would like to share.

    "There is no elevator to success. You have to take the stairs" Sarah Brown

    "You can't attain your dreams if you don't know what they are" Sylvia Bortman

    "Never give up. never stop trying. As long as you're trying, you haven't failed' Julie Whitt

    "Make the most of today. It's the one day you have. Yesterday is gone, and tomorrow will be dealt with tomorrow. When your fearful, do what's right in front of you, and the fear will pass". Mike Harris (philosophy he adopted when becoming sober in 1983)

    "The most important thing is to stay focused on progress not perfection" Nick Boswell

    Good luck to everyone in 2009.

    Heres to an AF January challenge

    Hey C-girl,
    My brother was going to take the Body for Life Challenge, but backed out. They are amazing stories though, aren't they?!?! Will your hubby do it you think?
    I'm up for the AF January challenge! On day 2 here and just heading out for a lane swim workout (such an exciting friday night, eh?!?!?!)

        Hi Peanut and Bridget

        yes my husband will do the Body for Life with me but I will have to pack his meals for him. Hopefully after all the Christmas festivities he will be AF through the week, which will help me immensely. I just know if I set myself a goal of 12 weeks it will take my mind of the AL as I know I cant drink while doing the challenge. I doubt I would actually enter but it will be a personal challenge for myself and at my age might be the last time I can get my body back.

          CG, Thanks for sharing those quotations. I'm going to focus on the Julie Whitt one for today: "Never give up. Never stop trying. As long as you're trying, you haven't failed." Day 3 for me. Hope it's easier than day 2!

          Dont forget, you can: start late, start over, be unsure, try and fail AND STILL SUCCEED!

          If it is important to you, you will find a way. If not, you will find an excuse.
