Weekend for Two Awaits Biggest Loser!!



Can you believe there are only 5 weigh-ins left until the Winner of Biggest Loser St. George is revealed? It has been a wonderful journey thus far, with our contestants reaching an amazing total of 335.6 pounds! "Weigh" to go! = )

This week our biggest loser was, yet again, Dan. S. who seems to be smoking us all! Dan had an incredible 2.95% loss this week, and in a close second was his wife, Gail, with 2.06% In third place this week was Jason F. with 1.52%. Well done!

So who is going to challenge these 3 for the weekend for two in Niagara-on-the-Lake?! Check out Maria's Bed and Breakfast at www.mariasbb.ca. The winner, who will be revealed at the final weigh-in on July 29th, will receive a gift certificate to Maria's B&B for 2 nights, valued at $367.00! (donated my Sommer Chiropractic Clinic) This beautiful resort will give you a well deserved weekend of relaxation and romance, nestled in the beautiful town of NOTL.

This week we enjoyed something quite different at the meeting, as Nancy taught us a beginner's Yoga class! We learned how Yoga can improve flexibilty, blood flow, cell health and stress levels, something we ALL need! Thank you so much Nancy for opening our eyes to an exercise that can teach us to relax and let go of all that tension that our fast paced society brings.

A concern I had this week is that attendance seems to be dwindling as only 19 people weighed in this week. Come on guys! You committed to a 12 week program that will help you become healthier, happier and feeling better about your body. Let's finish what we started! To all those who remain faithful week after week, congrats! If you know someone who hasn't been coming, give them a call, or even show up at their door and tell them they are going on a walk with you. Let's encourage everyone in the program and hold them accountable. Everyone needs a pick-me-up now and again.

Make sure you are there next week as two lucky winners will get a free Ion Detox Footbath with Diane as she shows us how this cool technique can actually draw three types of toxins from your body through your feet. During the footbaths Diane will be speaking on Exercise and Nutrition, telling us what types of food are best with certain kinds of work-outs. This info is crucial to know so you can supply your body with the right type of "fuel" as you get more active!

Speaking of getting more active, do you have a bicycle sitting in the garage that desperately needs to be dusted off? Join us on July 18th from 9-11 AM for a bike scavenger hunt, a fun way to get some exercise! You don't have to be a pro! Everyone can go at their own pace. Bring your family, your camera and come on out. We are starting at my office, which is at 75 Main St. S. in the building with the Medicine Shoppe and the Dentist.

See you Wednesday at the firehall!
