Wow! What another great week of the challenge! As you can see by the lists below, the large weight-loss is starting to taper off, but that is typical for this stage of the challenge. Because of this, this is the point of the challenge where people (myself included) start to get frustrated because we are working so hard and the scale is not moving like we want it to. I've just started listening the the book "Atomic Habits" by James Clear. I've just started listening, but I've already learned so much. Here are a couple of quotes that stuck out to me that would be pertinent to what we are doing right now: "It is so easy to overestimate the importance of one defining moment and underestimate the value of making small improvements on a daily basis." "It doesn’t matter how successful or unsuccessful you are right now. What matters is whether your habits are putting you on the path toward success." Keep this in mind as we go through the last half of the challenge. We are doing great things, even if the scale isn't moving. As you are reviewing your goals this week and reminiscing on why you joined the challenge, be sure to celebrate the successes as well. We've got this! Next week when you report your points, you will also be re-taking your measurements and submitting measurement points in addition to your weight points. (Can you believe we are already half-way through the challenge?) I will send out a reminder email with instructions on Thursday. Have a wonderful week!! Here are the week 3 results: 5+ Club - Kristen Broadwater 2+ Club - Kari Smith, Melanee Bates, Melanie Bush, Andy Duncan, Luke Marley, Stephanie Watkins, Maria Luke, Tracie Simon Congratulations, Team Falcon!!

Congratulations on completing your first week of the challenge! In some ways the first week of the challenge can be very difficult because you have to figure out all the rules and make changes. In other ways, it can be the easiest week because your motivation is high. So how did we do this week? As a group we lost a total of 102 pounds!!! That's almost a full person! It makes me so happy and excited. More important than the weight, I hope you are al starting to FEEL better! I know I am. I feel so much better when I'm living the challenge rules. I'm not sure why it's so hard to keep doing it when a challenge isn't going! Each week I will post the names of those of you who have lost 5 or more pounds in the 5+ club and those that have lost 2-5 lbs in the 2+ club. 5+ Club - Diana Christiansen, Kari Smith, Melanee Bates, Melanie Bush, Luke Marley, David Broadwater 2+ Club - Andy Bartholomew, Jennifer Penrod, Judy Cameron, Tracie Simon, Aleisha McConkie, Robin Merrill, Cindy Ellsworth, David Janeway, Ross Teemant, Vanessa Skinner, Esther Carlsen, Gina Duncan, Heather Nelson, Kristin Broadwater, Stephanie Watkins, Carolee Adams, Janelle Nuon, Mary Ann Hawes Each week I will also post a list of the team rankings for that week. They are not cumulative rankings. The team rankings are based on the average number of points teams earn each week. Here are the week 1 team results: Congratulations on a wonderful first week! Make sure you and your team have chosen a weekly challenge for this week from the weekly challenge tab. I look forward to seeing your results again next week.
