My husband and I joined Master Brinker as student members of his UBBT test back in October/2008. The journey together so far has done wonders to bring us closer together. Over the years of our marriage lots of things conspired to get between us. Kids, jobs, different interests and just trying to make a home where everyone was comfortable.We changed and grew sometimes in different directions. Now not all of this was for the worst, change can keep us interesting and a little mysterious as long as we don't get too far afield.
We started out in the ubbt with the "Body for life" program. The common goal kept us on track and added a bond that we had let slip over the years. We finished the initial three month challenge and decided to keep this program as a life change. Most of the time we are on track....most of the time. We both fluctuate around five pounds up or down, but are able to keep the basic principle of the program.
We have three of our four children living at home still. The teenagers seemed to take an interest in the exercise part of the program slowly over the last few months. To both our delight our eighteen year old has decided to return to her Kung Fu training after five years of a break. I would like to think we had a positive influence on her decision.So as I see it the UBBT has indirectly affected her life. She is talking about UBBT 7 for next year already.
The Silent River family are such a great group that they welcomed her back with open arms. Its such a great place for her to expand her mind and test the waters of her adult life. Amanda turns eighteen on the 8th of March. I think her Dad and I are the ones who got the present.
HAPPY DAYS!
Linda

Thanx so much for this post. Bert and I are so busy with the things you mentioned, we struggle to touch bases with eachother and our relationship on a weekly basis. I look forward to when we can reconnect at the level you just described. I will keep in mind that something like the ubbt and body for life has met with success for you two.
