Ten weeks ago I said, "We are 'Going All In' and
that can only mean one thing. Lives are going to be changed forever, children
are going to have healthier parents, husbands are going to have more vibrant
wives, wives are going to have more confident husbands, the prescription drug
companies are going to make less money, the Goodwill is going to get a lot of donations, TJ Maxx and Ross Dress For Less
are going to have more customers, running shoes are going to get more wear, friends
are going to be made, and did I say…lives are going to be changed forever???
This is going to be EPIC!!"
And it was and we did! All of those things and more, came true at The Healthy Weigh this winter. Tonight we not only celebrated what the eye could see, but what it couldn't see as well. Lots of life changes happened in the last ten weeks! We had a lot to celebrate!
I took the time on this last week of the Winter Team Challenge to review some of the most important messages from the weeks we've shared together. As we ahead into a few weeks of going it on our own, it's never been more important to put into practice the lessons we learned. My desire is that when my Healthy Weigh friends return in a few weeks to begin the Spring Team Challenge, they are weighing less and even closer to their goal!
We had some individual winners as well as team winners to celebrate!
Audrey A. was awarded the Alumni Scholarship for the Spring Team Challenge!
Karen M. and Greta N. were winners of the drawing for the Spring Team Challenge for losing two pounds this week! Congratulations to you all!
I gave out some fun awards to my favorite team name "#shakeitoff
and a special award to the most consistent team without a win, to team "2000 fit-team."
The Top Male and Female with not only the greatest weight loss but also the greatest weight loss % were Tom F. and Carrie N.
Tom with 44.4 pounds and 18.34 % of weight loss!
Carrie with 43.6 pounds and 18.60% of weight loss! (which made her the top weight loser of all!)
Tom and Carrie...you led the way! Congratulations!
Our last HEART award also went to Carrie this week! She had the highest weight loss % for the week to earn the very last heart!
Our Top Three Teams:
3rd place Team "Lose to Gain" Kelly and Stewart with a 16.13% of weight loss! (winners of $300)
2nd place Team "Freedom Fighters" Dana and Tom with a 17.18% of weight loss! (winners of $500)
1st place Team "Full Nelson" Carrie and Erica with a 18.05% of weight loss! (winners of $1000)
As always, I'm so happy for the top teams, but I get just as excited to see the great number of participants reach the 20, 30 and 40 pound weight loss club! We lost 2720 pounds as a group this challenge! Wow!!
As always, I'm a little sad at the end of a Team Challenge. I enjoy the friends new and old and always love to see the camaraderie that forms each ten weeks. This group of people had a lot of fun and supported each other well. I'm going to miss them!
Spring time will be a powerful time at The Healthy Weigh as we unpack the stages of change! If we see as much growth and change in the upcoming challenge as we did in this one, we are going to be walking on sunshine when summer rolls around!
Congratulations to all who completed the Winter Team Challenge...is WAS epic! Until we meet again...
Always encouraging you,
Letha
