The week has pretty much fallen apart for all of the ususal excuses. I plan to keep on going forward, not giving up but not expecting any results this week. Definately going to do something about my sleep deficit though.

Liza, you can do it. Sleep is very necessary to success - so catch that up first! You'll feel much more in control if you're not tired.

Hi,

I'm starting BFL on Monday (or even Sunday if I get overexcited!) with some weights workouts on Thursday/ Saturday to get the hang of some of the exercises (I use free weights but at a lighter level) I've had a fair bit of help planning already but am really excited and would welcome any hints and tips that you have...

Hey, I just realized that 4 weeks have passed. I'm cruising right along on this program, and lost another 3# this week! My exercise is much more consistent than it was, and while I still don't look forward to it with excitement, the feeling of "oh no do I have to do this?" is much less.

Eating is going pretty well, and I keep working on it. Hope the rest of you are doing as well.

PAT - You are definately on the straight and narrow of being on track for the BFL. Down 3 is great.

I have gotten down one more, but not switched back to my other gym, so I am trying to stay on track at home.

This afternoon is lower body while baking cupcakes for an event at DD's school. Seems a little odd, but hey, multitasking is where it is at.

Got a good grocery shopping done so when I am eating, I am eating right. Still working on acquiring a taste for the FF cottage cheese.

Liza, did you try mixing in a spoonful of yogurt? My DH eats vanilla yogurt, either LF or full-fat (he's a skinny little devil) so I just steal a spoonful and mix it in my ff cottage cheese, then add fruit and if necessary splenda. Today I have raspberries
