I am so glad that I joined this program. The first workout was very tough. I know that as the program progresses, things should get better or at the least, somewhat easier. I look forward to those times. I just want to encourage everyone to stick with it. Although I won’t be there for the first challenge, I just want to say, “Go Yellow !!!”

I am taking this opportunity to congratulate everyone on a job well done. The efforts you displayed during today’s Team Challenge were impressive. Each of you worked extremely hard. I thoroughly believe you gave your best. That’s what this program is all about. Continue to give your all and you will find that success already belongs to you. I further congratulate you on your sportsmanship. We all cheered for each other regardless of the team affiliation. It’s a great pleasure working with people who possess your type of character. If today’s event is symbolic of the remainder of the program I am anxious to see the results!!!!!! Take care and have a safe holiday weekend.

What does this say about you? It says you are motivated and dedicated to achieve your goal of losing weight and obtaining a better lifestyle of health. I am really proud of you all.

Good Morning everyone, this is one of the best things I’ve done for myself
in a long time. I am up for the challenge, even if it means
stumbling/falling and kissing the dirt at every challenge event! ! ! (smile)
Or screaming in order to pump/push/pull out those last two or three
repetitions during our exercise.
During the event held on this past Saturday, I felt like a kid again,
running and playing with my playmates, what a joy. I was beginning to feel
old and useless, especially since I have gained so much weight and my hair
line has begin to turn white/gray. But, Praise Be To God! ! ! He sent me
you all and I have been encouraged and I pray that each of you will be
encouraged as well.

It’s great to see that we are beginning to chime in and share our experiences with the world. This is a very important element of our program. Why, one may ask? Because there is power in words. The things we say may very well inspire others to take control of there health. If so, we are definitely fulfilling our mission.

Tonight was so hard. It felt like my body was rebelling against me. I thought I was not going to make it through the workout. I made it. Thanks to everyone for the concern. Hopefully things will get better.

Good Evening All,
As we worked out as a group this evening, one thing kept going through my mind is that even though we may have our own individual goals, we are here to motivate each other. One thing that I am learning it is easy to commit to a plan when there are others who are just as motivated as I am to succeed. To me the success is not to lose the most weight out the group, but it is being able to understand the challenges that I have faced to get me to the point where I am today and know what I need to do to get beyond that “plateau” and to change my mindset. One thing that I know for certain is that once this program ends, I will have learned a wealth of information and practiced some much better habits that will inspire me. Also, this opportunity to network with others who have similar goals, not just for weight loss, but also for being healthier.

I just wanted to say how the Yellow Team had a very motivating and rewarding workout. I started out tonight with very little energy and motivation and I felt so energized. This was one of the best workouts so far! Thanks for a wonderful workout!
