Beginning with a purpose

So after lots of math figuring out where my wonderful team stands in this game. I have figured out the task ahead!
We have a beginning team weight of 1261.5
A goal weight of 1009.7
Pounds of body fat to lose 251.64

This is with everyone ending with a body fat %of 25!

Week 1
34.5 pounds lost!
15.06 pounds of fat!
What this tells me is that some of you are eating under your calories and losing lean body mass. Why this is a problem. Lean body mass burn more calories at rest and allows you to lose more weight! Why would you want to give up food and weight loss? Eat up and eat healthy protiens!

Week 2
16 pounds lost!
to start our training day we ran 1 mile. Yes ran a mile! My goal was for everyone to finish in 15 minutes and you all sure did!
April 13:50
Jessica 13:16
Camille 14:00
Catherine 14:12
Therese 13:13
Angela 14:34
New goal for you all is to shave 10% off your time. i.e. April will aim for 12:15 and so on.

Week 3...
let's see what happens!

Don't forget that this Saturday our presenter is a behavior therapist! Come learn how to change your behavior to benefit your life and weight loss!
10am Saturday May 29th at Northside Fitness!

First Competition!

Our first Competition will be involving CLASSES! The team that attends the most classes in 2 weeks (5-17 through 5-31) wins a one hour private TRX class! You will be the first to experience this super fun workout and all the other members will be so jealous! All you have to do is mark next to your name BLRed, it's that easy! If you take any strength training class (Resist-a-ball, Basic Training, Toning/plyo etc.), it will count for your strength training part of your homework. If you take a cardio class (step, spin) it will count for your cardio portion of your homework! Yoga is in addition to your homework, but as many of you know, it can take you farther in you health goals than you can imagine! Good Luck and Happy Sweating!

THE Kickoff!

Saturday at 10am, come ready to weigh, snap some shots and get a workout! I am ready, are you? You will also get your food log, meal ideas and homeWORK! We're changing lives here people!

Totally Excited! Tuesday at 10am is now the Black Team! we get to wear Black T-shirts and show our tough attitude, we're moms after all!

something Fun to do together!

I want the whole team to sing up themselves and their children to do the Walk In The Park at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom! If we get 10 people signed up, we pay $10 entry fees and if we each earn $50 in sponsors, we get to stay all day in the park! Benefits: Leukemia and other childhood cancer care at Berkeley children's cancer center. Nice long walk for the whole family. Free admission to six flags (minus entry fee). Something to do as a team! go to sixflags.com and look under "Walk in the Park". Don't sign up until you talk to me, because I want to make sure we get a group rate!

The Biggest Loser Challenge

The Journey is ongoing. Searching high and low for those lucky few that will recieve the help they need for the changes they want to make! Have four victim (I mean contestants) lined up, need two more to round out my team. So excited to move forward here! Health and fitness is so important to being a good mother and wife. Without the energy to chase after those kids, they become less active and motivated and who wants that for their precious babies? I know that God's hand is in this venture and I know that He will continue the work He has begun in these wonderful men and women. He wants them to be able to do what they need to do, just like me! If you feel like this is something you want to do, let me know. 12 weeks of training sessions, professional seminars and fun challenges! Did I mention prizes? Cash Prizes?
