What a wonderful day.  I went out for a wonderful lunch with my husband and 2 of 4 kids.  (Oldest was refereeing lacrosse and 2nd son was at his moms house.).  Nice and relaxing, except I ate to much.

One of my traditional gifts is my husband takes the kids out miniature golfing, and I get...

I just dropped by to wish you success. My wife and I both achieved body transformations by following the Body for Life program. We feel that you can make your fitness dreams come true. I lost over 50 lb’s and went from 36 to 10% bodyfat and my wife (bodyspace name: judimax) went from size 12/14 to 4/6 in only 12 weeks by utilizing the BFL program. Challenge yourself, and try to push a little harder each and every workout. Contact us if you wish more info.

How are you doing? Are you keeping up with exercise and diet? I'm doing great with exercise, it's actually become a habit and almost fun! But the diet, well, pretty good. I'm am beginning to get comments from friends that think I've lost more weight. The scale isn't budging, but I guess my shape is changing for the better - yeah! Whatever you do - don't give up! Feel free to e-mail me if you have a bad day! (or a good one!)
