- What is the Best Body Countdown?
The Best Body Countdown is a guided 52-day journey of self-discovery and lifestyle change resulting in inner and outer strength and wellness. In every season of life “Your Best Body” may be defined slightly differently, but it’s always YOURS to define… everyone deserves to reach their personal best – inside and out – regardless of their starting weight or fitness level! - The essentials of the 52-day Countdown: Self-assessment, accountability, sugar intake reduction with support and recipes, water/beverage choices, balanced meal planning with an emphasis on vegetables and purposeful snacks and de-emphasis on processed food; strategic splurging, and “make-it-count” movement…being Your personal Best!
- When can I register? Register at bestbodyin52.com. Registration opens on mid-August for the Fall Countdown and mid-December for the January Countdown…grab an accountability partner to join you!
- Once I have registered; when will I get the start-up details? You will get an email the Thursday prior to the Countdown start date with all the details related to getting started with the Best Body Countdown, which begins counting down from Day 52 to Day 1…counting down to Your Best Body!
- About the Facebook Best Body Club private Group:
- What if I don’t do Facebook? Joining the FB Best Body Club group is not required. But, even if you don’t plan to continue with FB use after the 52 days, you’ll want to create a FB page just for the support of the fabulous Best Body Club. You can always delete your page afterwards.
- How do I join the private Best Body Club Facebook group? You will receive an email the Thursday before the Countdown begins with a link to request to join the private group.
- Will anyone be able to see my info on the private Facebook Group? No posts, nor any photos you post will be visible to anyone except Best Body Club members on the same journey.
- What should I wear for the self assessment? Form-fitting (but not spanks), lightweight clothing that reveals the humps and bumps you want gone. Don’t suck in for your “before” picture! You will want to be comfortable, as you’ll be doing a timed plank exercise (instructions on page 31 in the Success Journal) to assess your starting point. You will also be taking 2 measurements. Everyone has to start somewhere! NO stressing!
- What if I won’t be able to exercise as often as recommended in the program – should I just not enroll? For Best-Body results, exercising most days of the week is recommended over the 52 days – which is just about 8 weeks. However, if you have an injury for example, that will prevent you from doing so, make a note in your Success Journal of what you WILL do, putting your modification in writing and committing to it. Committing to what is reasonable for you (if 5 is not) is better than giving up on the pursuit of Your Best Body. You will learn a lot regardless, and make changes for the better, while working towards getting yourself to a place where you can meet your next exercise goal.
- I understand sugar is limited during the Countdown…what if I just don’t think I can cut back? Should I just not enroll in the program? This is the most common fear for future Best Body Countdown participants…You will be amazed as to how well you do, especially if you enroll in January or September and do the program with the support from the Best Body Club and the expert step-by-step advice from the Success Journal author, Sohailla Digsby (Facebook group and email support, as well as “Don’t Quit Chats”). Not to mention the Best Body Cookbook & Menu plan gives you delicious alternatives to help replace your old habits (and recipes) with new ones. Just check out the Success Stories on the website for reassurance: lots of sugar-addicts commenting that they are no-longer enslaved to it!
- What if I have a trip planned in the middle of the 52 days? You must plan ahead for this! Getting out of routine right after setting up new framework for a healthier lifestyle definitely can throw you off course if you are not prepared. Write in your Success Journal any modifications to your daily goals that you will need to make during your trip, and fully commit to the temporary parameters you establish for while you are away from home, even if you’re unable to do as well as you would have done if you were at home. Don’t quit just because you are away – plan to jump right back 100% on board when you return!Have someone check in with you that will hold you accountable. If you wait for the perfect time to start, it may never come!
