I was sick for a week and a half and on antibiotics, but I’m down to 125.5.   Got back to lifting on Thursday and hadn’t lost any strength.   I have one month left on my Body for Life program.  I was going to take progress pictures, but am waiting, because even though there’s improvement, my lower abs are not where I want them to be!!

I have been doing my exercise, but haven’t been writing anything in my blog.  Haven’t even logged on.  I guess I lost my drive, but I’m going to try to get it back. 

We’re going through layoffs at work, 50% of our group is going to be “redundant.  I find out March 16 if I have a job or not.  So, with that, and other “stuff … the roadblocks life is putting in my way … a few things have been dropped. 

I did order a bunch of protein shakes that arrived yesterday, and hopefully that will help me keep my nutrition in line.  I can feel myself getting stronger, but I’m not any leaner.  If I’m really going to finish Body for Life with more than average results, I have to kick it into higher gear!  Any tips for really sticking to a diet?  What helps?
