Spirit Week at The Healthy Weigh

It was spirit week at The Healthy Weigh!  Team spirit showed up in all kind of ways! When I think of "living your best life," I think of laughter and fun and a bit of risk taking! That's what took place at the summer team challenge this week! Thanks to all who participated with such flare...it was a FUN day at The Healthy Weigh.

We talked about motivation this week! Motivation is in the doing and I brought some props to show just what it looks like to "do" motivation!


The fours things we talked about this week are not only keys to losing weight and keeping it off, but powerful tools when it comes to changing your belief systems in any area of your life.  Once you identify a faulty belief system that’s not getting you what you want…the tools I shared this week help change those beliefs!  We talked about 4 things...

Motivation
Goals and rewards
Positive thinking
Mental conditioning

My year at a glance calendar, inspiration photo board with goals, 3 X 5 cars with positive affirmations and my simple collage made from magazines...were the visualizes that I think were needed to help show just what it looks like to "do" motivation! 

The work that it takes to lose weight, keep it off and live a healthy life, has little to do with our nutritional plan and much to do with motivation! I challenged my Healthy Weigh friends to spend more time changing their thinking and less time thinking about the diet! 

Keeping weight off has much more to do with what's eating you, than what you're eating!

I reminded our teams that they have the ability to change their future today by changing how they think. 

Changing how you think has EVERYTHING to do with losing weight and keeping it off! You can change your relationship with food and keep your weight off for life! You can!
You don’t have to allow the programming of your past to control your present or your future.

Our Winning Teams For The Week!
Noon: Team "Bod Squad" Heather and Nycole with a 1.98% of weight loss!
6 PM: Team "The Best Year Boomer Babes" Linda and Joyce with a 1.25% of weight loss!

Our water bottle winner of the week was Paul A. with a 2.98% of weight loss!  Congratulations Paul! 

Your Challenge for the week:
  • Do one of the motivational practices this week
  • Download week # 3 "Whats In Your Back Pack ~ Controlling What You Can and do the homework provided.

This week ask yourself…What’s it going to take for me to change my thinking???  Not what’s it going to take to stay on my diet…because if you change your thinking, you’ll stay on your diet.

Here's to "doing" motivation...

Always encouraging you,
Letha
