Team "Foley Loaded" Take The Win!

Congratulations to our winning Team of this Summer 2014 Team Challenge. Kelly and Amy were "Foley Loaded" when they left the building last night...they were $1000 richer!!


Kelly and Amy, Team "Foley Loaded," said last night..."If nothing changes, nothing changes." How true that is,  however they did a lot of changing in this last 10 weeks!  In just 9 weigh ins these two lost 80 pounds between the two of them! They were pretty excited when they received the $1000 cash prize for having the greatest % of weight loss! (17.00%)  Congratulations to this mother and daughter team!

Besides giving away prize money to the top three teams and awarding two 100 dollar bills to two lucky winners of the 2.5 pound drawing, we celebrated much more Thursday at our Grand Finale! So many of our travelers made the 20, 30, 40 and even 50 pound clubs...  and many more were REALLY close to that 20 pound mark!

We closed out this powerful Team Challenge by looking at how we can apply these very
important 7 DECISIONS into our everyday life! Learning about them will do little to change us...applying what we learned is the key!

We also heard from our travelers and they gave testimony to what the last 10 weeks have done for them! Life change happened from the inside out for this great group of travelers!

Here's a look at our top three teams!

3rd place with a % of 13.67 of weight loss
"The In-Law Way" Karen and Charlene

2nd place with a % of 15.02 of weight loss
"The Shrinky Dinks" Thor and Gina

1st Place with a % of 17.00 of weight loss
"Foley Loaded" Kelly and Amy

 We had some great individual accomplishments too!

Top weight loss for a male
Thor S. with 53.6 pounds and 19.73%

Top weight loss for a female
Kelly F. with 48.9 pounds and 19.63%

Congratulations go out to all the travelers that started and completed this summer Team Challenge!

It's always hard to say "goodbye" to a Team Challenge!  This one especially.  We have been in hot pursuit of a better life and we found it along the way! "The Travelers Gift" was a wonderful theme to focus on this summer! It will be a season I won't forget!

Congratulations to all our travelers who stayed the course and  followed through until the end! We close out this "book" and are eager about learning more this fall about losing weight, and keeping it off for life!
Until then,

Always encouraging you,
Letha

I Will Persist Without Exception!

We received our last DECISION Tuesday at The Healthy Weigh... The persistent decision, I will persist without exception. The persistent decision is the key to the other six. Without this particular decision, the other six are meaningless. When you make and own this decision, the other six are certain to work! The arch angel, Gabriel, was our last historical figure to visit, he handed David the seventh and final decision of these travels!

Committing to the persistent decision means you accept responsibility. You constantly seek wisdom. You never stop being a person of action. You have a decided heart, without exception! You choose to be happy every single day. You greet each day with a forgiving spirit. Every single one of the other six decisions hinges on your acceptance of the seventh. "I will persist without exception." It's the one that brings them all together!

We visited that place Andy Andrews called "the place that never was" The place where all the things were kept that were about to be delivered just as a person stopped working and praying for them. The warehouse that was filled with the dreams and goals of the less courageous. I have to wonder if The Healthy Weigh has a room in that warehouse. A room where the dreams and goals of our clients are stacked because they eased up, took a detour, or just quit!  I challenged our travelers to persist without exception!

We had a couple of back to back winners this week and celebrated another repeat winning team as well. Congratulations to all of you!

Noon  Team "Hope" Oksana and Luba, won for the second time with a 1.10% of weight loss for the week.
5:30    Team "No More Excess Baggage" Joe and Leta, won for their second week in a row with a 1.23% of weight loss for the week!
7:00    Team "Getting' Jiggy With It" Sean and Ruth, also won for their second week in a row with a 1.87 % of weight loss for the week!

It's coming down to the wire...this time next week three teams will be a little richer and excited about their final push! Who will win this Winter Team Challenge?


We announced our Spring Team Challenge theme this week and we're pretty excited about it!  I've been studying an important subject in the life of people who are trying to change..."WILLPOWER"!

According to the American Psychological Association, Americans name lack of willpower as the number one reason they struggle to meet their goals. We are going to be all about that this Spring at The Healthy Weigh! And...we're going to have a little fun while we're doing it!  We're calling on the help of some Super Heroes to help us..."Captain WILLPOWER" will be sure to invite enthusiasm and motivation for this Spring Team Challenge!

Speaking of the Spring Team Challenge...one of the challenges for the week to receive a ticket in next weeks drawing is to sign up for the Spring Team Challenge... On line this week or before we get started next week! It's going to be a powerful 10 weeks!

Your Challenges For the Week:

Read the persistent decision every day this week and answer the questions on the back of the hand out.

Enroll in the Spring Team Challenge.

AND a Bonus Challenge!  Lose 2.5 pounds this week for a ticket in a special drawing for $100 to be given out at the Grand Finale next week!  A client convinced me to offer up one ticket for EACH 2.5 pounds!  You're on!

We look forward to celebrating all the accomplishments of the last 10 weeks at our 6 PM Finale Tuesday!  We will be there at noon to weigh our noon time clients in and then meet back together for a great time at 6PM when we say our final goodbyes to the Winter Team Challenge!

Make this a persistent kind of week!  Make every day count, every meal count, ever workout count and ever glass of water count...as you finish out this outstanding 10 week challenge!

Always encouraging you,
Letha
