Body for Life--Day 10 Update

Today was Day 10 of my Body for Life challenge. Overall, I'm doing pretty well, with some minor slip-ups here or there. Bill Phillips (the author of Body for Life) encourages you to focus on progress and not perfection, though, so I try to keep that in mind.

This morning I did a tough BFL upper body workout. Since starting BFL I've been trying to get up early for my workouts as much as possible, and I managed it today. It feels great to start my day off with a killer workout--and gives me a nice sense of accomplishment when I'm done working out early. It also motivates me to eat well the rest of the day--not wanting to waste that effort.

The problem is, being up so early I'm now fading fast before 11pm (it's about a quarter to 11 now). I need to start going to bed earlier now that I'm getting up earlier, but I'm a night owl by nature. Sigh.

In other news, please send healthy recipes if you've got them, and I'll add them to the list to download them. Also, I still have a few DVDs for sale on Amazon. Check them out if you are interested.
