The Amazing Race Ends with a Sprint to the Finish!

Last night we celebrated our 10th Team Challenge finale! With a total of 2360 pounds lost in the last 10 weeks, we broke the record for the most pounds lost of any Team Challenge so far! This truly WAS an Amazing Race!

Along with celebrating our top three teams, we inducted more clients into the 20, 30, 40, and 50 pound club than ever before! It was a powerful example of what happens when people come together to support and encourage each other and make personal decisions to change their lives!

Here's a look at some of our big winners!

Most pounds lost by a female: Kimberli Zonker 51.8 pounds!
Most pounds lost by a male: Frank Stillwell 46.3 pounds!
Highest % of weight loss for a female: Peggy Schwartz 20.1%
Highest % of weight loss for a male: Jerry Hatcher 20.5%

And now...our Top Three Teams!

The THIRD team to arrive: "This is How It's Dunne," Karen and Rebecca, with a 15.53% of weight loss! Congratulations to you sweet sisters! Winners of $300

The SECOND team to arrive: "Thunder and Lightning," Peggy and Debbie, with a 18.52% of weight loss! I'm so proud of you two! Winners of $500

The FIRST team to arrive, "Happy Feat," Sue and Jerry, with a 18.78% of weight loss! Congratulations you two. You inspired us all! So great to see a husband and wife work together to change their lives! Great job!! Winners of $1000

As we close out another Team Challenge, there is always a little sadness. By the 10th week of this challenge this group has bonded and it's hard to let go! We traveled through holidays, encouraged each other when the going got tough, enjoyed each others company on the Fast Forward events and supported each other on Face Book! It was an amazing ten weeks!

We said our goodbyes last night to the Amazing Race, but we look forward to our next challenge "BEYOND THE LIMITS" in January.
We have a great 4 weeks ahead of motivating and inspiring events to keep our clients focused and on the right path.

Tuesday,December 20th noon and 6pm. Glenda and I will be team teaching a VISION class.
Tuesday, December 27th noon and 6pm. I'll be sharing one of my yearly traditions, choosing a word for the year!
Tuesday, January 3rd, noon and 6pm. We'll be getting closer to our climb and I'll be taking you to the base of Mt. Everest to get you ready for the adventure!
Tuesday, January 10th, noon and 6pm. I'll be presenting the program introduction class for the upcoming Team Challenge. Everyone who is enrolled in the winter Team Challenge should attend this very important class explaining the nutritional plan in detail!

I threw out a little contest last night for the next 4 weeks as well...here's how it works. For EVERYONE who loses 4 pounds between December 13th and January 17th, they will be entered into a drawing for $100! I thought it would be a fun way to stay focused during these holiday weeks!


Congratulations to ALL of you who participated in The Amazing Race and completed the race! You have a lot to be proud of. I hope that you continue to live out the lessons you learned and that the changes you made will be for life! That will be truly amazing!

Always encouraging you,
Letha

There's NO QUIT IN US...even after breaking ALL records!

Oh, what a day at The Healthy Weigh! The 9th leg of this Amazing Race turned out to be a record breaking, goal meeting, over the top kind of a leg! We celebrate with friends who reached "one"derland, saw weights they haven't seen in 30 years and had just plain old great weeks! It was a blast!

We did something on this 9th week of the Team Challenge that we've never done before this early in the challenge...we broke the weight loss record of ALL previous Team Challenges! We went over the top and still have one more week to kick the record up another notch! Congratulations to this group of outstanding people...they started the race out strong and are finishing even stronger!

As we close in our our 10th week of this challenge, I reminded our participants that winners, champions don't quit! When things get tough, when they don't feel like they can go on, they reach down inside of themselves and say, "There's No Quit In Me." That's where champions are made, that place where a decision must be made. Will I give up now or will I rise up and say, there's no quit in me?!!!

We celebrated with teams who decided and have put action to their decision. Team 'No Sugar, Just Spice' won at noon with a 2.19 % of weight loss! Lynelle and Karadee were the first team to arrive with a 2.19% of weight loss for the week and they were excited about it!
At Six, 'Trophy Wife Wannabe's' took the win with a 2.83% of weight loss! Marna and Marianne ran a victory lap before they landed on the check-in mat! They had a lot to celebrate this week and it showed!!

Next Tuesday will be our 10th Team Challenge Grand Finale and they just keep getting better! We will be weighing in some of our teams at noon but everyone will becoming back for the Finale and celebration at 6! It is going to be Grand!

Your task for the week:
Lose 2 pounds! (you will want to be in this drawing for an over night stay at a World Mark Resort AND a Winter Team Challenge paid in full!)

I can't wait to celebrate with you all next week! Here's to another over the top kind of Amazing Race week!

Always encouraging you,
Letha
