I had known about Body-for-LIFE Challenge or ten years.Every once in a while, I would go online and check out thenew champions and their stories, and wonder i this wassomething I could actually do. Like a lot o people whosee these pictures or the rst time and read the stories, Ithought it was impossible or me, a mother o three with amillion tasks on her hands and no childcare, to even dream omaking a transormation.

Impossible it was. That is until the day I made thecommitment to start and nish the Body-for-LIFE Challenge.I you are like me and youve considered doing this Challengemany times beore, I tell you NOW is your moment. You have

the chance to change your lie right now! You too can be justlike the millions o other who have transormed their bodiesandlivesjust like I did.

The Body-for-LIFE Challenge kit you hold in your hands right now is your key to unlockingyour new body. And a ull support system is just a phone call away, or a ew keystrokes on yourcomputer. My lie didnt change once I had completed the challengeIt changed the moment Idecided to start. It changed because I immediately knew that I was doing someth ing good or myamily and mysel. The positive energy that I experienced at that moment lasted throughout myentire twelve-week Challenge and beyond. Make a promise to yoursel right now to nish theBody-for-LIFE Challenge and send this kit in. Take your beore photos and move orward with anew positive outlook on lie. Trust me,you wont regret it!

Best o Lie,

Margi Faze2007 Champion

Occasionally in lie it hits you right between the eyes thisis meant to be. Its not an accident that you are holding theOcial Entry Kit or the 2009 Body-for-LIFE Challenge. Call itdivine intervention or dumb luck, either way youve just beenhanded the keys to the kingdom. The question Id like to askis, What are you going to do with this opportunity? Like methree years ago, you are most likely at a crossroads in your l ie.You can ip through these pages and claim disbelie, go to thelocal ast ood joint and order another heart attack in a sackand take one step closer to an early exit, oryou can resolveright now to turn back the clock, transorm your body andlie,and give 100% o yoursel to t his program or 84 short days.Having mentored hundreds o people through their individualChallenges, I promise that when you complete your Challenge,you WILL NOT ever be the same again!

Some o you may have completed twelve weeks o exercise according to plan, but you are hesitantand arent too sure about sharing those BEFORE pictures with the rest o the world. Believe me

when I say that I understand! In my proession there isnt anything less appealing than an out-o-shape Marine! But heres the rubI dont believe that the pictures are even or you. You see theyare or the uture Challengers and Champions that will ollow your lead and be inspired by you.They are or the everyday olks like us that are looking or a reasonany reasonto break thechains holding them down rom becoming who they were born to be. Its the BEFORE pictures thatlend validity and credibility to those AFTER pict ures. They are the WOW actor, the inspiration, theproo that this program can work or you too! Unless you complete and send in this kit, nobody willknow your story. The lie altering ripples that you could spread rom these thin sheets o paper willbe lost. Friends, amily, and possibly thousands o others will miss the inspiration that would havebeen derived rom what youve accomplished in 12 short weeks.

The next 12 weeks are going to come and go no matter what. Now is the time to commit tocompleting your transormation and give back to the Body-for-LIFE communitybecome anINSPIRATION!

May God bless you richly,
