Road Blocks, Clues, Detours and Pit Stops!


Extraordinary people stay focused when they come up to a road block,take clues from their environment,they don't let detours determine their outcome and they make really quick pit stops!

Tuesday's Team Challenge was another one of those days to remember. We celebrated GREAT weight loss, saw people reach their goal weight, gave a standing ovation to yet another one of our friends reaching his 100 lb mark(GREAT JOB KRIS!)and were introduced to the theme of the Fall Team Challenge!

While I was talking about road blocks, clues, detours and pit stops, we were interrupted by a team from the "Amazing Race" looking for their final destination!What a time we had letting them know that "they were the first team to arrive!" It was also our opportunity to introduce our Fall theme, The Amazing Race! We are going to have a crazy adventure Oct. 11th through Dec. 13th! Can't wait!

In the mean time, we are focused on the last two weeks of this Extraordinary Life Team Challenge. At noon and Six we had two teams win for the day who have never been number one for the week! Team 'Starlight' at noon with a 2.14 % of weight loss took the win and had one of their members reach her goal weight today. Congratulations Grethe and Fay! And Fay and extra shout out for reaching your goal today! At Six, 'Hips Hip A Weigh' won for the evening with a 2.01% of weight loss! Jackie and Connie were surprised and excited! Good job you two!

We had a good number of people in our 2.5 pound drawing to win the car detailing by Andrew and apprentice Mark! Heather and Connie and going to have shiny, clean cars! Andrew, thank you for this donation and your support. This prize really inspired people this week to get in that drawing!

We announced our three week "Training Schedule" in between our Team Challenges. We won't be letting up with the support and encouragement for all the clients who are going from one Team Challenge to the next. From cooking classes to conflict resolution, we are ALWAYS looking for ways to inspire and educate our clients!

We've got some great work to do in the next two weeks! Stay focused, dream big and have a fantastic week!

YOUR CHALLENGE FOR THE WEEK: Show up next Tuesday! :-)

Always encouraging you.
