Began January 6, but lost 2-1/2 weeks because of illness. Still loving it, feel great, getting good results.

Hi there.....

Count me in. Started in January. 15 days left to go in my first challenge. Will most likely take a week or so off and then start again. I love it and can't think of a good reason to not be doing it!

Cool Me too!!!

Just finished Week One, tomorrow's my first "Free Day" and I intend to sleep in until about 7am (instead of rising at 4:45 to be ready to work out or walk/jog by 5)!

I can't say I'm seeing anything yet, it's way too soon--but man oh man, I'm feeling *every* muscle! That in itself is quite the reward this early in the game.

Default Week -1

I'm planning to start on 01 April 02.

I'm getting ready now - getting my supplements in place (on order), getting my home gym set-up again (bought fixed weight dumbbells so that I don't lose time changing weights), and giving it a week to fully get over this cold or whatever.

I've decided to go whole-hog. I have officially entered the EAS 12-Week Transformation Challenge. I don't stand much of a chance, but as Bob Costas said at the close of the 1996 Atlanta Olympics regarding the critics that claimed that Atlanta had overreached its capabilities. He said that reaching beyond your abilities is part of the Olympic Ideal. There is merit in the attempt and a whole hell of a lot that's right accomplished along the way.

Wow Wbahn, That's terrific!!!

I'm so proud of your decision to "go for it"!

I think I may have just gotten my son's cold (sinus) so as I'd planned to "officially" start tomorrow, I'll have to wait and see..........geez wanted to grab onto this emotional high I'm feeling after reading BFL, doing a few practice sessions and go for it myself...alas, I may have to wait a week

Anyway, it's great to see how many of us are in this together...let's keep the morale high folks, we're already winners for accepting the challenge!

Week 3, and feeling strong. I’ve liked it from the start, but my best day was yesterday when my 6 year-old daughter woke up early to find me doing UBWO. I asked her to stay as quiet as she could, and even though she tried, she just couldn’t hide her delight when she saw me adding more and more weight to the dumbbells. I know I was too distracted to really hit my 10s, but the look on her face was worth it. In between sets she would say things like “you’re strong, mom!” and “I’m proud of you!”

Thumbs up As much as I hate to do this...

...I gotta revive this old thread and tack my name to the end of it. I've taken up the BFL banner for my own this week...it's now C1W1D5 for me. I know I'm going to really enjoy this journey.
