Fit or Fat?


...that's the question you had to ask yourself today at the Team Challenge weigh-in when you saw the 20 pounds of fat displayed on a platter in front of the room. It was a great visual as we celebrated the fact that every participant had the ability to lose that and more during the 10 week challenge!



The noon group never ceases to amaze me! They performed a first today, having EVERY one of them showing a loss for the week! No "Hoo ah's" at noon today! Congratulations to a group of dogs with a lot of fight! They also hosted our winning team for the day...team "Barely Breathing" won the jackets today with a 1.77% of weight loss for the week. Congratulations to Donetta and Tanya!
83.3 pounds were dropped at noon today! What fun!



Six PM proved to be a lively group with 86.7 pounds lost for the week! The jackets were looking colorful as they were passed on to our winners of the evening team "2 Booties-full" with a weight loss% of 1.55 for the week. The 2 Linda's were excited to be sporting the jackets this week!

Our Sponsors of the week, Jerin Boyer, with Starbucks and John Jackson, with State Farm Insurance gifted us with great prizes to keep the winners happy. Thank you to you both for supporting our clients in their efforts to lose weight and keep it off for life!

We focused on Words today...the power that they have to change our outcome. If you want to be winning at losing weight, learn to harness your word power to work for, not against you; select words that create a visual of the desired outcome; and choose each word as if it mattered. You might be surprised how much it does. Want better results this week? Check your words...which lead us right in to or challenge for the week!

YOUR CHALLENGE FOR THE WEEK
Has two parts...first, your assignment is to show up to the Team Challenge next week with a visible sign that you are a team. You might want to have a team cheer, or a team song ready...who knows what might happen!
Secondly...encourage your team mate. We were impressed with the poem from the Double D's that was both encouraging and rewarding. Make a difference with your words and deeds this week to encourage your team mate!

You are doing amazing things and losing lots of weight Teams! Congratulations to all of you for your success so far! Keep up the great work and you'll be looking back on this 10 weeks with pride!

Until next time,

Letha
