Alright! Day 7 on Body For Life. On the 7th day of each week, you are allowed to rest. I really needed it. I do definitely look forward to starting it back up again. This will be two days worth of legs this week! I must say that my legs are a lot stronger after the first week.
I went on a bike ride with my son and I did not feel like stopping once. I’m so happy to be getting back into shape. It’s tough to see your kids start passing you and out running you when you go to the park!

Hey guys, on my day six I went to the park with my kids. I did a little bit of cardio running around the park. The nice thing about the Body For Life is that you are allowed a little room for error along the way. This workout wasn’t as good as I could have gotten in the gym, but better than I would have had otherwise.
My diet went really well. I denied myself all you can eat pancakes and sausage and Tang at my son’s Pinewood Derby for Boy Scouts. I had an egg sandwich instead. I had 3 hard boiled eggs for lunch and an apple. For dinner, I had a sirloin steak with a salad, bread and mashed potatoes. Oh, I had 3 glasses of wine as well. I’m feeling pretty good.
This concludes my first week of Body For Life. Sunday is a day of rest. The 7th day of each week you are allowed to rest. I wanted to add that I got great sleep last night. I went to sleep totally exhausted. I plan on sleeping in tomorrow as well. I’ll need it because the beginning of week 2 will be pretty hard. I’ll kick it off with legs in addition to some high stress stuff going on at work.
Thanks for following. Until day 8…

I feel great today! I literally haven’t felt this good in quite some time. This challenge is giving me confidence and structure. I’ve resisted tempting treats and stuck to a decent diet. I had an egg sandwich this morning and a protein meal replacement drink at lunch. I did the elliptical cardio workout again and hit the 172 mark for heart rate again! I really pushed at the end. I wanted to stop, but I kept going and worked harder in the final minutes.
It’s a great feeling to get this back. This will. This drive.
I’m looking forward to another awesome upper body workout tomorrow morning.
