You Can Eat On The Road Too!


Tuesday was a fun day! We danced, we sang, we lost weight, we learned a little bit more about each other, we all got cool BINGO games and we entered into a one week competition with the Northern Lites! You can't miss a week of the Team Challenge without missing out on a lot of good stuff!

At Noon I saw some fine dancing to one of my most favorite songs, "I believe"! Thanks for the welcome home dance! It was good to come home and celebrate with you. We celebrated with our winning team for the week too. Team 'Road Hogs' took the win for the Noon group with a 1.76% of weight loss for the week! Ken and Jen, you are looking great! Congratulations on your second win of this Team Challenge!

At Six we had a special celebration as Rosie from team 'Slightly Waisted Again' reached her 100 pound mark! Rosie, it's been inspiring to watch your journey. Even with all you're facing right now, you continue to put one foot in front of the other and walk this road. Congratulations!
Team 'JaMa Slim' took the win for the evening and the win for the day with a weight loss % of 2.34! Congratulations Jim and Margie. Not only did you win the festive gas cans, but you won $200 of bark dust courtesy of our Sponsor for the week, Steve and Bob from team 'Freedom Bound' and City Bark LLC! Let Glenda know when you'd like her to come and spread that bark for you...she's loves yard work! :-)

We focused our attention on eating out on the road this week! "Restaurant eating aint no big thing!" I'm sure after yesterday's lesson, our Team Challenge participants are ready to walk into any restaurant and order on program food with confidence! The Food you need is in the kitchen!!!

Ginny from team 'Once And For All' knew that one of the great things to do on a road trip, is play games! We're all going to be playing a little BINGO this week! You can either play a traditional BINGO with 5 across, diagonal or 5 down, to get one ticket in the bingo drawing, OR you can go for a black out and get three tickets for next weeks drawing! The winners will receive Gas Cards, courtesy of Ginny! What fun!

Team 'Northern Lites' came through this week with a special and motivating challenge for the week! Here's how it works! Our friends from the North are going to Sponsor next weeks win! EVERY team who has a weight loss % for the week , greater than the weight loss % of team 'Northern Lites', goes in a drawing for a $200 gift certificate at Bonneville Hot Springs! Wow...Thanks to our Canadian family, we are in some serious competition this week! EVERYONE has a chance to win this week! Will you be in that drawing?

YOUR CHALLENGE FOR THE WEEK:
Listen to lesson # 5 on the CD series. Do your home work, and be prepared to tell me what your maintenance calories are next week!

And...PLAY BINGO!

There are 4 weeks to go on this Road Trip my friends...What if...you made these next 4 weeks the best weeks yet? June 14th you will step on the scale with no regrets!

Enjoy the sunshine this week, take really good care of yourselves, and live great!

Always encouraging you.
