I am thinking of reformatting my MacBook Pro using the provided CDs/Dvds, I know i will lose everything, but is iLife and all the other software that was on my mac when i first turned it on included on the OS Installation disks so that I will still have them after i reformat?

You should, i had to have mine reformatted after the logic board fried and i have all of my iLife still.

but did you reformat it yourself, or did you have it refformated at an apple store or somewhere where they might have installed the software after reformatting.

The bundled software is on the software restore DVD in an extra installer package called "bundled software" or so.
