One morming 2 1/2 years ago I got on the scale and almost fainted when I realized I was weighing 270
lbs! It hit me like a hammer! How could I possible have become this fat over the years? My size 42 jeans
were tight - and I looked like a walross! At age 45 I was dangerously overweight and a prime candiadte
for cardio vascular health problems! I urgently had to get back into shape and stay in shape!
Many times before I had attempted to lose weight by dieting, always gaining back the pounds I painfully
lost. Thus I needed a new approach!
Armed with the motivation to get on a body renovation mission I
started researching the Internet for a method that would allow me to get back and stay in shape. Soon
enough I realized that what I needed was to loose fat not just simply weight. The parameter to look
after was Body Fat not BMI. Eventualy I stumbeld accros the BFL philosophy which at the beginning
sounded promising. Soon enough though, I realized that, like many other programs, this one was also
designed to promote and sell expensive suplements and shakes.
Although the BFL program helped me to get back into the discipline of exercising regularly I needed a
more scientific, natural approach that DID NOT promote the consumption of "miracle" suplements and
shakes. Since my goal was to burn fat and eventualy regain muscle, this is how I ran into BFFM.
I must addmit that given my previous experience with some of these so called "revolutionary" programs, I
initialy was sceptic about BFFM. Still I wanted to find out what I was about and subscribed to the
newsletter to further evaluate Tom's philosophy on burning fat and feeding the muscle. Soon enough I was
hooked! This was the right, non-bs approach for me - so I went ahead and bought and downloaded Tom's
book. Today I must say that it has been one of my best investments ever!
By using every piece of advice contained in his book and bonus reports I was able to completely change
my lifestyle. I combined Tom's book with personal motivation and spiritual literature to also nurture
the sprit, mind and heart (to completely "sharpen my saw"), and combined all of these ingredients into
one single custom made program which I baptised "Lean & Strong", to give it a personal feel and touch
and keep me motivated.
Tom's book and advice along with regular exercise and a reasonable nutritional program and a healthy
lifestyle, have so far help me to burn almost 16 % of bodyfat (from 23% to currently 7% and going) and
reduce my weight by 100 lbs (from 270 to currently 170)!
Today, at almost 47, I am more toned than I was in my 20's. I am finally able to see my abs for the
first time in my life; I look, feel and perform 15 years younger (and my wife loves it). I exercise
between 3 and 6 times per week with at least 3 cardio sessions and 3 - 4 strength workouts. My aerobic
threshold has risen by 10 points since I started and I truely feel "lean and strong".
My nutrition contains almost exclusivley what Tom calls "Grade A and B foods"and my beloved beer has
become an ocacional delicacy instead of a regular drink.
My friends are astonished with my transformation and are now seeking more and more advice from me, to
the point that I have been asked to lecture on "my method". All of this thanks to BFFM, which continues
to be my "health bible" along with all the other incredible resources Tom has been publishing in his
follow up newsletters lately.
Although at the end of the day success depends on your own comittment to the mission you have stated to
acomplish, I must truly say that BFFM provided me with the no nonsense approach to a healthy lifestyle
without having to resort to the myriad of useless and expensive miracle drugs, pills, suplements,
formulas, shakes and fad diet programs promoted by so called gurus.
My "lean & stong" mission is not over yet and hopefully soon I will be able to report that I have
reached my bodyfat goal of peaking at 3%, then continue feeding the"growing and hungry" muscle!
