It’s actually pretty good. Body-For-Life (BFL) consists of balancing your proteins, carbs and fats to make for efficiently burned energy. Sarah and I started this two weeks ago, and I figured I’ll let you in on the scoop.
Initially, it it was difficult to find the right foods and all that, but we’ve accomodated. Eating six times daily (small meals) may sound strange, you aren’t extremely hungry or overly full. Included with this program is a “free day,” which usually falls on a Sunday. This day lets you psychologically and physiologically understand that there are no limits to the program , permitting you dine out if wanted.
This program directs you through a rigorous excercise so you can burn the fuels your ingest. The style of training is HIIT, High Intensity Interval Training. It’s suggested to do this intensive workout in the mornings for the most fat burn. I can attest that this style of workout really kicks my ass everytime — it’s a good kind of ass-kicking that you need though.
The program suggests drinking 100% Whey Protein shakes. LOL, that lasted for a day for me! It was like drinking mud (and yes my friends, I’ve tasted mud before). So I opted for these EAS Protien Bars. They are tasty, filling, and quick. I like that because I can quickly re-fuel without impacting my busy work schedule. Not to mention, the packages of them from Sam’s Club, $14.98 for a dozen bars so it’s generally cheaper than the shakes.
I’ve also noticed in my RSS feed reader, Jason Calacanis is also working out and blogging about it. Hmm, I wonder if we can make an online service that enables users to track their own progress. We can monetize it with targeted contextual and graphic based advertisements. Enlist a few experts to give dieting and fitness advice. Personally, I don’t like the sound of Fat-blogging, because it insinuates people are only there to blog about losing fat; when more importantly they are improving their only health.
Anyhow, I already have a decreased appetite, eating better, and I know I feel better.

I agree about the name fatblogging. I am not fat, yet my tummy tells me I could lose some weight. I am chubbyblogging! But indeed, what counts is a good, steady and healthy lifestyle.
