We're Not Caving!

Team spirit was in the house today at The Healthy Weigh! We saw colorful matching outfits, heard a couple of team cheers and even had a group of gangsters join us from up North! What a fun time we had this Thursday.
It's going to take some team spirit to let go of what we focused on this week...we're letting go of holiday habits! We're going to exchange some holiday habits in for some holiday hope. To do that we're going to have to change our thinking. I painted a pretty bleak picture of a typical American holiday beginning with Halloween and ending on New Years Day!  We exchanged that for a new look at a holiday filled with choices to be healthy and head into 2014 feeling fabulous!

The average American gains 12 pounds between Halloween and New Years' Day! Not us!!! We're not caving into societies destructive holiday habits! You've heard of No Shave November? Well, we're participating in our own way with "No Cave November!" Young and old men alike join in the first day of November and just say no to shaving! No shave November...they stay committed even when it itches, even when they start to feel frustrated. They stay the course throughout the month to end up with what they want... a beautiful beard!

We're joining together to just say no to holiday weight gain! We're going to stay committed even when we're itching to eat off program and even when we feel frustrated. We'll stay the course and end up with what we want on December 5th...10 pounds off and a ticket in a drawing for $150! And to add to that excitement, the two clients with the greatest % of weight loss from Oct. 31st through December 5th will receive "Healthy Weigh For Life." That's right...two of our challengers will earn the best prize of all! We're letting go and "We're Not Caving!!"

Two new teams took home the win for the week as we finished out our gatherings.
Noon team "Shrinky Dinks" Spencer and Jamie won with a 2.34 % of weight loss!
6PM team "BFB" Donna and Tya  won with a 2.35% loss!
Congratulations to all of you and to everyone who stayed the course this week saying "NADA" to Halloween candy!

Your challenge for the week:
  • "NADA" you know what to do!
  • Download week 2 "Change Your Thinking ~ Change Your life and do the homework provided.
  • Start your "No Cave November" graph and bring it back in next week.

We have a bright and healthy holiday season upon us at The Healthy Weigh. Working together as teams and supporting each other on Thursdays will make all the difference!  We're not caving and we are going to be thrilled when the calendar turns to 2014 and we're feeling better than we have in years!

Until next week.
Always encouraging you,
Letha
