"SomeGuy" wrote in message ...
I was corresponding with a fellow who had started the Body for Life program about a year ago. This middle-age guy went from a size 40" to a size 32" in just over a year. I've managed to drop three inches in the same period of time, but have stalled big time. I'm wondering if anyone else here is familiar with the program and can provide some additional input. Thanks! If you decide to follow the Body For Life program do yourself a favor a nd buy the cookbook. It has loads of great recipes. I do the low carb thing and i find the cookbook to be invaluable.By the way, I don't have any financial interest in the book or the program just really, really liked the book. |

"Tonya" wrote in message ... I did body for life for about 3 months. I was successful at it until I got tired of preparing 5-6 meals a day and working out. If you can be hard on yourself and you love to work out then it will probably work for you. Meals consist of a portion of carbs and a portion of protein 5-6 times per day.Workouts consist of 3 days a week cardio for 20-30 minutes and weightlifting 3 other days for 45 minutes. Sunday is a free day where you can eat anything you want and no exercise. There are food restrictions. Without the book, I hope that helps. Tonya www.lowcarbcrew.com What I don't understand is my brother, who does Body For Life tells me the white potato is a perfect food and o, the wonders of the potato. On the other hand - i think the white potato is an evil little spud to be avoided. What's the deal?? he exercises a lot. he uses the carbs for fuel. potatoes are decent fuel. that's the difference. |

Studies have shows that potatoes are so full of nutrients that you could live for an awfully long time eating nothing but. It's only evil if you eat anything else ... sort of like guns being evil only if they have bullets. ;-) That's funny cause can't you make a battery out of a potato too? I think there may be something to it - maybe if i eat nothing but potato then I can be my own power source too |

You're right about the battery bit. A few years back, some clever fellow created a potato-powered web server. Check out http://d116.com/spud/ |
