Congratulations on your first week of building good habits. In my team we have been commenting about how much junk food is already lurking around in our work places, and we haven't even hit peak holiday season yet. This is the primary reason I wanted to do the challenge again during the holiday season - to help us stay healthier during a time that's easy to put on the pounds rather than shed them. As you can see by the list below, we are off to a good start. As a group we lost a total of 72.7 pounds in only one week! However, more importantly than the pounds, I hope you're starting to FEEL better.
Each week I will post the results from that week here on this page of the website. If you're team is on the bottom half of the team list, what can you do to motivate each other to move up on the list for next week? I love the team accountability of this challenge. Let's help each other out. Keep working hard! You'll see results. If not on the scale, you'll see it in the inches. I can't wait to see next week's numbers! Keep up the good work! 2+ Club - Andy Bartholomew, Jennifer Penrod, Kimberly Minson, Keith Carter, Kim Hobson, Angela Langford, Kari Smith, Jared Hawes, Jolene Martinez, Mary Ann Hawes, Seth Hawes, Melissa Nelson, Michelle Greer, Stephanie Watkins, 5+ Club - Gina Duncan, Cody Langford, Carolee Adams, Jenny Capener

Before I announce the final results, let me get some general business out of the way.
Now on to the results. Eating healthy is HARD!! However, it feels sooo good! Let's keep doing it, even though the challenge is officially over. Congratulations on a difficult but great 8 weeks!! Even though some of us didn't do as well as we hoped, we ALL made progress. Progress is progress and we can all be proud of yourselves for fighting to the end. While there is a winner in this challenge, we are all winners when we make efforts to take care of ourselves. So even if you didn't meet your end goal, you are closer now than you were when we started and that's what really counts. Don't get down on yourself. Keep making your health a priority! As a group (50 people) we lost a total of 398 lbs and 310 inches!! Wahoo!!!
