An Awesome First Week!!

Hi everyone! You should all give yourself a pat on the back for a very successful first week! Here's a brief summary.
* One week one, 63 people registered for the Biggest Loser St. George.
* Week two- 36 people returned to weigh in and attend the meeting.
- total pounds lost was 103.4 pounds!! Way to go!
- This week's biggest loser was Murray A., who lost 3.62% of his original weight! Congrats! Runners up were Cindy B. (2.84%), Katie R. (2.8%) and Jason F. (2.78%) Well done guys!
- Natalie spoke on Proteins, Carbs and Fats and gave some sources of each

* Some people had concerns that they were hoping to receive a specific eating plan to follow. In response, I would like to say that the purpose of this club is to teach healthy eating habits and lifestyle changes, and NOT to diet! We all know that diets work when you are on them, and we have all tried "diets" before. But did you know that by educating yourself on how to make healthier choices about nutrition and exercise, you can all gain info that will last a lifetime!? Each week we will be teaching you this valuable information. Also, if you do want more specifics on meal plans, you can enter in your food info into Sparkpeople.com and click the mealplan section. Sparkpeople will give you daily meal plans and even grocery lists and recipes! Hope this helps!
Note* Following these plans is optional!
Tomorrow, bring any questions you have to the meeting.

We will see you tomorrow for a session on daily stretches to keep your body flexible.
Important!! Bring your exercise mat!! (or blanket if you don't have one)

See you tomorrow!
