LULU!!!! You posted some pics!!! Nice job all around girl! Abs looking good, cookie cuttin' it up!

I'm glad you ladies all realize it's about tweaking these programs to fit you, your goals, needs, schedules, lifestyles, etc. Nice job!

GREAT pics!! Looking very very good.....

And I agree with Buns - the Shadow plan has a lot of "wiggle room" IMO for food variety - so you don't have to get bored......

You're the best, Bunny! You're so right about tailoring a program, I was feeling a wee bit of a failure because I wasn't perfect on it, but this program allows for deference without feeling like ya need to 'start all over' .

Thank you, sir. And I'm very thankful for your plan.

Like I said, I was feeling like I failed, but coming here inspires me, and I want to thank you guys for being my muses. (hope that wasn't too melodramatic )

Always remember striving for perfection is not always a bad thing IMO, it's just WHOSE IDEA of perfection are you striving for... yours? others? etc...of course while being realistic... I’m going to flub up this quote but I heard on the radio the other day someone say Never compare your lawn to your neighbors… Never should the color of his grass determine the value of yours…

Does that make sense?

I think some people slam the quest for perfection b/c it takes a turn into an unhealthy form of body dysmorphia, obsessive behavior or even throwing in the towel b/c you feel you failed. I always have learned from these types of experiences because 9 times out of 10 I can recognize it & correct that behavior. Okay MAYBE 8 x out of 10, but I’m working on it. GUILTY! I wouldn’t have learned as much as I have in such a short period of time (about my body) if I didn’t experience these things, and I am more than willing to share my adventures with you all here. Sure I was forced to ‘pay attention’ in a way but ever before everything happened I always felt in tune with myself, a little TOO in tune it did make others worry.

Sassy always says 'everything is relative' ... It's important to remember what works for someone may be a little or a lot different than what works for you, but going through these self-test-trial-n-error phases only helps YOU figure out your body THAT much better.

Glad you're here Lulu..
