We did it!

Twenty-two hard-working participants just finished up the 2017 Lose Your Love Handles Fitness Challenge. A few comments from them about the month-long program:

Kati. M. says: My food awareness has improved significantly.

Amy A. says: My first mantra (and the one I’ve kept most if the way through) was “excercise gives me energy.” It was hard to get myself out the door to walk or go to yoga class because I felt tired and unmotivated BUT I always felt soooo good afterwards. Months later I still have to say that to myself all the time to go be active.

Heather M. says: I’m really noticing (already!) how much better I feel when I’m well hydrated, avoiding sugar, and filling up on vegetables instead of easily available (but empty) carbs.

I also want to share some of the great achievements of the month:

Amy A. won an award for her Heroic Start and for Inspiring others. Peg T. won an award for Keeping Amy on Her A-Game. Heather M. was our Biggest Loser in the Body Fat category – reducing her body composition by 1.9 percentage points! C. M. was our biggest muscle gainer with 3.4 additional pounds of muscle gained this month – and note that her body composition lowered by 1.2% as well. Way to tone up, Heather and C.M.! Our 2^nd Place Biggest Loser was Ronadel R. with a loss of 5.4 pounds, 1.8% body fat, and 1” circumference. Finally, our Most Points Winner and Biggest Loser was Peg T. with a loss of 6.4 pounds, .5% body fat, and 3.25” less circumference overall. Peg, we are all impressed with your dedication, consistency, and hard work!

A huge Thank You to all participants and Way to Go!!
