YAHGODDAWANNA!

We had an AMAZING time at The Healthy Weigh Thursday!  We went on a CAMP OUT!  Our teams had tremendous weight loss and are feeling huge momentum going into this next week of the "Best of The Best" Team Challenge! Congratulations to all the challengers who had such a great week!

We met our Alumni this week and were introduced to Paul, one of our Alums, up close and personal!  We're excited to hear from more Alumni and hear about their Healthy Weigh journeys in the weeks to come! 

In choosing "The Best of The Best" I couldn't forget the story of the mountain man who taught my family an important magical word! He told us that this word was a magical solution to nearly all the challenges that came along. He said when you understand the word, it unleashes immense strength and abilities, makes your mind clear and your imagination run with ideas! "Yahgoddawanna!" In order to accomplish anything, whether it's big or small, easy or difficult, trivial or very important...you've got to want to! Knowing what you want has EVERYTHING to do with all the important things you want to accomplish.  Losing weight and keeping it off are surely on the list of important things!

We talked Thursday about the great stories you tell around the campfire! All the good stories have one thing in common...a character who wants something really bad and overcomes conflict to get it!  When you hear a great life story, or read a great book, if the character in the story doesn't change, the story hasn't happened yet. The same elements that make a story exciting and meaningful, are the same elements that make a life exciting and meaningful. I challenged our campers to live a great story, this week and in the weeks to come. 

We also learned this week that in every story a character is what he does.  This group of winners showed us how to do it this week!  Congratulations to our very first winners for the week! They'll take home the coveted "Green Jackets" and put their mark on them!

Noon: Team "G.O.T.C.H.A." Renee and Peggy won with a 4.54% of weight loss for the week! 
6:PM Team "Full Nelson" won with a 4.91% of weight loss!  WOW...big winners of the day!

We'll find out next week who the top individual was and present the red leather heart to them! It was an outstanding week!  It's going to be a close one!!

Your challenges for the week:
  • Download week one "Understanding Your Beliefs ~ The Key To Permanent Weight Loss" and do the homework provided
  • Make a list of WAHT YOU WANT!
  • Not One Stinkin Piece!
What kind of story do you want to be telling on December 18th at our Finale??? Now is the time to do something and take action to live your best story possible! 

Until next week when we experience more of "The Best Of The Best!"

Always encouraging you,
Letha
