Guest guest Posted December 21, 2003 Report Share Posted December 21, 2003 April, Welcome! The best advice I can give you is to make the commitment right now to follow the BFL book for 12 weeks. Accept no excuses to stop. Hurdles may come your way but you can jump them and stay on track. In 12 weeks, you will either be so excited by what you see in the mirror or you will be so disappointed that you didn't give a short 84 days out of your life to help create your best body ever! The middle of March will come whether you finish BFL or not. Make yourself that promise and I promise you that when that 84th day comes, you'll be a different person not only on the outside but the inside, too. Sara > Hi everyone!

Guest guest Posted December 26, 2003 Report Share Posted December 26, 2003 Hi! i'm 34 years old from malaysia. glad to be here. i started doing BFL because of health concerns/skyrocketting cholesterol levels. have done BFL for 18 months now and bf dropped from 35% to 21% at present. btw, my cholesterol levels dropped dramatically. sadly never took before photos as i did not believe i'd make it(this was then). i hope to be 18% by mid next year/challenge. i rarely skip workouts but i do realise that i tend to cheat on food..so this has to change. cheers, sheila.

Here are my goals and my authorized and unauthorized patterns of action. I'm making these public, so I can be accountable to you and to myself. Welcome ! You have taken very important steps in defining your goals, and identifying the old behaviors you KNOW you will see nagging at yourself to do, and providing yourself with specific alternative positive behaviors. Now, just do it! There will be no need to think twice about your behaviors...you have already done that. So when a mood tries to redirect your behavior, just ignore it. Get out of bed, get to the gym, eat that planned meal, drink that water (my weakness), and succeed every day. Like said, in 84 days you will see accomplishment staring back at you in the mirror. And it will feel incredibly good. Kelley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 ,I'm so sorry to hear how your mother speaks to you. Please consider inviting her to join this group so she can talk to the other mothers of kids with 4S and hear from us firsthand that this is a condition. Also have her visit the website put up. You also may want to consider counseling to deal with some pretty harsh things your mom is saying to you. I'm not saying you cant Handel it but it seems like having someone reminding you that those sorts of comments are not ok and how to deal with them may be helpfulAgain I'm really sorry and please remember we will always support you here. HeidiSent from my iPhone Hi! My name is Benson and I just wanted to introduce myself officially. I have been a spectator to this group for awhile, and I think the support that this group offers Is awesome. I am 18 years old and I have pretty mild symptoms of 4s. My mom is my main trigger, because though I attend college, I live with only my mom at home. I have issues with the eating of softer foods, gum chewing, STARBURSTS, cereal, babies or little kids crying, people talking too loudly, slurping, excessive sniffing, and some others I can't remember. I often get tension in my chest and an automatic clenching of the fists. If I anticipate that something is about to trigger me, I get an impending sense of doom and do my best to avoid the situation at all costs. My symptoms often occur mainly by my mom since I am around her so much, but the problem with that is, she doesn't seem to understand. She gets extremely mad at me when she thinks I am about to be triggered. She calls me "devil child", "cold-hearted b****", and accuses me of not being her daughter, because her daughter wouldn't offend her or be as psychotic as I am. It really puts wear and tear on our relationship, and I would love to just be carefree and not worry about any sounds. My mom refuses to believe that I have any sort of condition and thinks I am being disrespectful and a bad girl, but I would do anything to be a "good" girl. I'm not sure how to handle this, but I am glad I have such a supportive group who goes through what I go through. Thanks!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
