    yea, when I was younger I didn't listen to my body and I just pushed through. My body don't respond to that kind of abuse as well as it used to, LOL. I had a good run yesterday and then went home and took the dog for a walk. Today is upper body and I am looking forward to it. I am on track to meet my goal for this month and have my goal set for February. I am taking measurements this weekend so I can see where I have lost inches. Good work everyone!

    day 23 was another good day, but I ran out of steam early, probably because I was up later than normal. May use tomorrow as my free day, as I hate to waste my weekends not working out when I can spend all the time I want without rushing to work. Found a new triceps exercise and it worked them hard so I have that lovely soreness i strive for!

    Loving it! My day starts every morning at 5:30 for coffee and reading and then a workout before the kids wake up. I love that alone time in the morning. I always feel so great after my workout.
    I increased my weight the beginning of week 3, then the beginning of week 4 I switched up the excercises I use
    On day 28! Down 5.5 lbs.

    Some are in week 5 some week 6, any progress and if so please share. week 5 for me. Weight progress has had gains, and then I have weekends like this last one, (Super Bowl) and back at SW. I feel stronger and the workouts are getting better.

    Zig zag on losing for me but with an overall downward trend so thats good. Total WL 8lbs but 2 q
    1/2 " off waist-yea! Had to ease off when I recognized signs of overtraining. Measurably stronger every week ! This is week 6-halfway point for me. Overall I give myself a 90% score for staying with the plan.

    Great report, I have cycled on and off. I need a motivation blast. Great job and I know BFL works! Keep going! Did you enter the challenge and did you take pics?

    Well, you have a even better reason to go to PCOLA, to visit again. :)
