We Make Beautiful Music Together!

"Are we in Heaven?"...that's what I heard at The Healthy Weigh today as Marni from team" Too Many M&M's" played a beautiful gold harp at the Team Challenge! From football stadium music to heavenly harp music, we know how to enjoy ourselves and be inspired by music at the Team Challenge!

We missed Glenda today as our numbers gal! We thanked and appreciated our substitute..Lynn! She did a great job keeping track of the numbers today! We had a little glitch at the noon weigh-in and the wrong team left with the scissors! As I write this blog tonight, team "Just Do It" doesn't know that they were the winners of the scissors at noon with a 1.2 % of weight loss for the week! What a story we'll have for Glenda!

At six, team "Mini Reps" won the scissor award as well as our top team for the week with a 2.3% weight loss ! Jan and Patty will be enjoying the prize for the week when they book Marni and her beautiful harp to play at an event of their choice! Thank you to Marni from Classic Harps Northwest for this great donation and for the beautiful music today.

Our challenge winners of the week were gifted with scrap books and the paper to go with them, courtesy of LeAnn from team "Weigh Major Losers", Linda Aarhus, also gifted two winners with beautiful kits to start Stampin' up! Congratulations to our winners that used imagery this week to motivate them to great success!

We focused on coping skills today. I explained the "life cup" and the importance of processing pain, stress and disappointments to keep from imploding. Processing or coping with your feelings is the key to eliminating emotional eating.

The Challenge for the week is to make a list of hobbies, activities, things you do for fun...and then make a list of your coping skills. Coping; wrestling or grappling with difficulties and acting to overcome them.

Our great Nutritional Plan is the reason our teams are losing so much weight, the weekly challenges and changes are teams are making...are the reasons they will keep their weight off for life.

Two weeks to go teams...live it out big time! Have a great week coping!

I'm so proud of you!
