To get notified when each interview will take place and get the call in information, sign up at My Ultimate Body Makeover. The teleseminars will be starting up soon, so hook yourself up before you miss out on this nice freebie. The organizer will offer podcasts or MP3s of the interviews at a later date, but he plans to charge for them.

Once you sign up you will receive a confirmation email to let you know that you are on the notification list for the teleseminars. You will also be shown a “But WAIT, there’s MORE!” style “secret upgrade” offer that will include MP3 recordings of all 12 of the interviews as well as some nice bonus items, including two Turbulence Training workout manuals (8 week DB/Bodyweight Fusion and 4 week TT for Women), a Precision Nutrition “Strategies for Success” document that covers the basics of PN, and the Gourmet Nutrition DESSERT cookbook in PDF format (This is NOT the full Gourmet Nutrition cookbook–just the dessert special) for $97. ($97 seems to be a popular amount for ebook programs sold online, eh?)

But I digress. Just realize that you don’t need to order the upgrade package in order to access the teleseminars live.

Wednesday I only walked 1.5 miles but I stayed clean on food. Thursday I felt so much better that I did 30 minutes of shoulders with my trainer, 30 minutes of YF flexibility, and 30 minutes on the treadmill. I am also hungry again. :biggrin:

I should be completely over this cold by Monday with enough nutritious food and sleep.

I should mention that between the cold and the increase in cardio, I have dropped down to 142-143 lbs, even with TOM. This is pretty much how much I weighed in May 2004 before my first BFL challenge, so I plan to take a comparison photo this weekend just to show what the difference between 143 lbs/27% bf and 143 lbs/21% bf really is for those who still gauge progress by scale weight.
