Doing this challenge during the holidays is no joke! It's so hard some days, yet so fulfilling when you have an excuse more than just will power to pass up on all the treats. It doesn't really seem fair to have to weigh in on the day after the biggest feast of the year for many of us either. However, I know it made me more conscientious of how much I was eating on Thanksgiving day. As you can see by the weight-loss clubs this week most teams struggled with the post-Thanksgiving weigh in. However, many of you mentioned how happy you were that you didn't GAIN because of Thanksgiving even if you didn't lose. So Yay!! Many of you are graduating weight classes by the 10's (i.e. 160s to 150s). It feels good, doesn't it!?
Some of you have asked about another challenge in January. I would like to start another challenge in the new year, but it can't happen until February. I've got other commitments in January that won't allow me to facilitate a challenge during that time. So plan for February, and as your friends and family start wavering on their New Years health resolutions you can invite them to join us. Here are this week's results: 5+ Club - Jolene Martinez (5+ lbs during the week of Thanksgiving? That's AMAZING! Congratulations!)

This round of the challenge is so great! It's so fun to see so many different teams in the first place position throughout the weeks. It's so close between all the teams! Keep going strong.
I LOVE the week four weigh-in because when we start getting frustrated with the scale, the tape measure helps us to see that all our hard work is paying off. As a group we've lost a total of 163 inches in only 4 weeks!!! At our half-way point, we've also lost a total of 192lbs. Go us! Even if we're not losing as much as we want, it's also good to remind ourselves that we're not gaining weight during this holiday season either. :) I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving! It will be fun to see what weigh-in the day after Thanksgiving looks like. Here are this week's results: 2+ Club - Andy Bartholomew, Keith Carter, Angela Langford, Cody Langford, Ross Teemant, Melanee Bates, Seth Hawes, Melissa Nelson, Stephanie Watkins Oh my goodness! It seems like there's always one week during the course of a challenge that just gets so chaotic that I forget to do points on Sunday night. That was this week! So Sorry.
At this point of the challenge, it can get hard at times so during week 4 everyone should be working on the Week 4 Weekly Challenge. In this challenge it's a time to check in with your team and with yourself and remind yourself why you're doing this challenge....and especially during the holiday season. Doing this check-in will hopefully help us all to keep going strong through the back half of the challenge. Here are this week's results. It was another great week of living healthy. 2+ Club - Gina Duncan, Jennifer Penrod, Kimberly Minson, Keith Carter, Cody Langford, Kari Smith Another great week of building good habits - and we did it through Halloween! One Holiday down, one more holiday and a holiday season to go! Let's stay strong. Here are this week's results:
2+ Club - Dave Fleming, Keith Carter, Kari Smith, Melissa Nelson, Carolee Adams 5+ Club - Cody Langford |
